    Right. That just determined WHO we play. We get to play the lower seeded team because we won the division. But "for the proposes of home court advantage" division winner doesn't matter.

    If we play at our best, we can beat Dallas.

    Go Houston Rockets! We believe in you.

    Let's not take the Mavs easily because of our regular season record

    We wanted blazers last season in the playoffs because we had the better off them in the regular season but they owned us and humiliated our coach despite Rockets having HCA

    Was it the last time we played Dallas that we got that was actually listed as an example of a series that was purposely extended by the NBA refs to push more games via Tim Donaghy's book?

    Rockets should have had the series locked up in game 5 or 6?

    You realize the Mavs and Rockets played some really close games right? In fact I think all the games between the two teams were all really decided by 1 quarter.

    Rockets in 5. 6 if the refs intervene.

    Despite missing key players in D-Mo and Bev, Houston is ready to do some real damage in the playoffs.

    The Rockets fan in me want to say Houston in 4....but the realist in me thinks in 7.

    Rockets way to go ! Division Champions !

    Crush Dallas !

    (do you know espn doesn't even have a single thread or video of the Rockets great accomplishment tonight, but it does highlight Lebron James taking the night off. I went to see if I could find out when our first game was. smh.)

    I'm afraid tbh. All our games were close and they blew us out one game. I really hope and pray we don't overlook our opponent just like last year. The Mavs can catch fire anytime and Carlisle is elite.

    I'm severely worried.

    But man, if we win, oh man, **** Dallas, Cuban, Parsons, Dallas Fans...this will be poetic justice for how we were written off as a result of Cuban's contender moves...

    Blazers never really owned us. All games they won were really tight that could have gone either way. Unfortunately, it never went ours.
