    True, but this is not the same team that played those games. ESPN has all the resources to check on those games to see how the Rockets lost those games. Oh well the Rockets will prove all wrong by shocking the world!

    So, in 1995 the Rockets overcame a 3-1 series deficit to defeat Phoenix and move on to the conference finals to play against San Antonio who was the #1 seed and who had beaten Houston 4-0 during the regular season.

    I guarantee you they would not put this stats up if we meet Spurs last year (we swept them in the regular season last year). ;)

    Magic swept us in 94-95 regular season.


    Regular season is not important for championships.

    What's even more chilling is that David Robinson was MVP that year with Hakeem runner up.. and we all know how that went!

    So this year Harden is runner up going to face MVP winner Curry. The similarities are so eerie!! It's Clutch City all over again!

    Go ROX!!!

    I don't understand why people get so emotional to what these dweebs at the four letter network say. They are getting hits and a rise out of you guys and thats 99% of what they want because it keeps you watching.

    Its funny because you can almost SEE the disgust on their faces. I was watching NBATV and Rick Fox sounded disappointed the Rockets beat the Clippers lol. Why disappointed? You should welcome the fact we earned our spot. Its as if they already expected LA to destroy us

    Another similarity: In the Clippers series, we overcame an improbable stat (coming back from a 1-3 series deficit to win the series), a stat we overcame that year against PHX... the same year we overcame another improbable stat the very next series (defeating a #1 seed that destroyed us in the regular season) !!!

    someone watch this and tell me that it's not me that hears these anchors' vaginas clench up giving credit to the rockets..

    My God the hate is so real...

    -it was more of a clippers collapse than a rockets win
    -james harden stirring tuna. i don't like tuna, but harden does.

    damn these boys are hurt as ****...hahahah **** you you dilapidated dimwits!!

    Neither the Grizzlies nor the Pelicans have our depth of bigs to throw at Golden State: Howard, Smith, Jones, Capela, and Dorsey.

    SleepyAzn is a split rockets-warriors fan (whatever that means). We all know where his true allegiance lies.

    Watch yourself, you may get banned from the GARM for your $hit

    I used to think all of the "national media hates Houston" narrative was just crazy conspiracy theory that Houston fans felt, but during the playoffs they have just so blatantly disrespected us that it's embarrassing. They aren't reporting unbiased news, they are just being delusional and disrespectful. They spend hours analyzing what Steph Curry accomplished in practice, but us coming back from 3-1 in one of the most memorable series ever isn't the top story?? It's disgusting
