    I personally don't care who the rockets play in the first round. Health is most important. Obviously the haters out there think our rox will lose in the playoffs but we know this is a different team this year.

    I hope the rockets set the tone and completely dominate easily in the first round with efficient offense and solid defense. Setting the playoff tone for round one imo will be the foundation for the playoffs and road to a championship.

    Thoughts?

    I don't know. I was kind of hoping that they struggled in the first round and had a long, tiring series where we eventually win in triple overtime in game 7.

    I dun think winning or losing depends on haterz or them extreme homers.

    It's up to their capabilities to show us and the rest of the world.

    Dominate, then rest until the next round.
    Repeat as necessary.

    I think they should worry all day, play like winning is not the only motivation neccesary, and root for MDA angle the refs through passive aggressive iphonex tweets.
