    Having the refs hand us a game over the warriors is a nice feeling. The shoe is on the other foot finally.

    Seeing Steve Kerr melt might've been more satisfying than the win itself. Also, if there's one game that both encapsulates the Rockets strengths and weaknesses, it's this game.

    We will be underdogs against OKC for sure but we've beaten them before. We usually play them tough.

    I hope Ime reminds them that this is a business trip, if they want to enjoy Vegas they can do so during the all-star break or the offseason.

    We got to see Golden State whine about an unfair whistle, Yankees whine about someone overpaying one of their players, and Alabama whine about not getting special consideration.

    I almost feel bad that a single fan base has to go through all that in a single week.

    The last period of the game reminded me of a soccer match where the Rockets put 11 men behind the ball and the other team had numerous chances to put it away but kept getting denied by the keeper or otherwise missing,

    .. and then the Rockets picked up a penalty off a dubious handball at 90 + 4 and won the game despite being out shot 20 to 2

    Does the cup add only 1 extra game in the regular season or 2 for the team in the final?

    The reporters are p***ies. Not asking about FVV's horrible game at all or why he pulled the team that got us the big lead in the 2nd quarter. Amen is our best player and has only played 30+ mins 6 times this year. FVV played 36m last night and was putrid for 35 of them.

    Are the Rockets a smaller market team? That doesn’t sound right.
