Rep .. If the rockets lose the next game, then maybe bring him off then bench with limited mins in game 5 Weds, This give him that full 2 weeks.
The defense for 90 percent of the game was good despite the foul trouble . It was the last few minutes that were somewhat bad and some bogus calls plus house ****ing up and they would be up 3-0.
I hope he doesn't play. This injury is the kind of thing where he can re-injure it if he's rushed back and then he's done for the entire playoffs. No need to worry just yet, they only lost one game. This thing could still be over in 5 and then he can sit all the way until the second round, which is the dream scenario. I don't think he should play until Houston loses their second game.
I think he'll play and we win 2 straight. It's demoralizing struggling to be down 1-2 and then angry Russell freaking Westbrook joins the series and makes them SPRINT in transition.
LOL why the hell would we play Westbrook??? The whole reason we threw this game was to give him more time to rest before round two...
I thought overconfidence played a bit part in our defeat. Am I unreasonable? Yes, that's why I am fan who has loved the Rockets since year 1 of the Dream. I will allow that our players are not robots, that human nature is expexted. I've cooled down quite a bit. Still, if OKC thinks they have this whole thing figured out, I think they are in for a rude awaken -- we will destroy OKC Monday.
