This what I like to hear. I never bet against the Rockets my belief is they'll always win, even if the odds seem insurmountable. Yes there has been years when are team wasn't great and that we pretty much were counted out and wrote off by I still believed and cheered for this team. But this team isn't mediocre and they seem to gel better week by week you can see it in the games. The Lakers are good, but what have they proved. They got wooped by excellent defensive Celtics team in the Finals. And had the best record in the West. WoW! The Mavericks got to Finals, lost and then went on to have the best regular season record only to meet a young hungry Golden State and Lose in the first round. The Lakers could have met the same fate to the Blazers had they met in the first round. Because we all know they would have came out way more motivated and confident then they were against us just because of the two teams history. So yeah the Lakers are good, but contrary to what the opinions are of most of the media. I feel there is no really dominant team in this years playoffs. And the only real advantage the Lakers have over us it that they have homecourt, which we can take away Monday! We have a team that can win it all with excellent defense, depth ,elite coach, dominant center, and a new found confidence! I for one feel if we don't win it all this season was a failure. What are we waiting? Are team is not young. Getting out of the first round is great. But I haven't been waiting for our team to get out the first I've been waiting for another championship. And every season is a failure when we don't get one. Our time is Now! Let's go Rockets!
