    Quick! Someone tweet this comment to Murray and Mchail before Sundays game so we can take OKC by surprise!! They will never know what is coming to them. Passing the ball will confuse the He11 out of their defense. Thank you Curt for finding the one wrinkle in OKC's defense and exploiting the He11 out of it!

    There is a major, MAJOR difference between being a playoff team and a contender.

    If we had a PF or SF that could consistently give us 10-15+ pts in the paint I would say we had a chance to upset them. Since we are a ALL perimeter and fastbreak scoring young team, it will be very very difficult to beat them 4 games. I just hope we win 2 games.

    I cant wait til FA begins this summer and Morey goes and gets us that post player to balance things out.

    So is the problem with this type of thread is the the community hates positivity or because it's not realistic.

    I mean if someone wants to be positive, let them be positive. If this was a negative thread saying we'll get swept, would that be more acceptable?

    i want this to happend so badly. I want to get banned til football season if they do pull a first round upset.

    90s nuggets
    and 2000s warriors have been the only teams to recently pull a monumental upset.

    It's a negativity thread.

    Can't believe you don't see that?

    The guy says that we'll beat OKC UNLESS we don't pass the ball. So if we lose, it's a premeditated blame thread on McHale and Harden (they were the blokes named in the OP).

    It's easy to be optimistic when you have only been a Rockets fan for one season and all your hope hinges on your dream of LINsanity being born again at the biggest stage.

    Both of those teams were very deep though. We can be deep by next year if our guys keep developing, but not this season. Just not enough talent to overcome 2 superstars who also have super role players. I see us snaking 1 win only.

    The ball is round so it is a sphere. Taking those facts into consideration I have to concur with op.

    the rockets probably won't even win one game dude. Reg season games have been VERY lopsided. It took a huge miracle to just drag one out on Durant's worst reg season game.

    OP, what fantasy world are you living in?

    Alexander will fire McHale first before we ever beat OKC in a playoff series. OKC know how to frustrate Harden. And with our incompetent head coach, we don't stand a chance. We have a chance but McHale has to stand aside and let others coach in-game.

    Ugh, I came into this thread hoping to read actual analysis of the series and why we might have a chance, not "cause I'm a Lin fan and have faith"
