    I still believe! Where are my believers???

    Rockets have had the NBA’s second-best defensive rating since the All-Star break: 105.3

    Rockets are healthy

    Bring on whomever

    I'm not going to let a lucky 3 by PG and an unfortunate missed 3 by Harden derail my belief!

    Go Rockets!!

    I admire your enthusiasm. I'm in wait and see mode. The Rockets have found too many ways to tear my heart out over the years to go all in.

    If they are truly championship caliber, then seeding shouldn't really matter. They will get their chance to prove it.

    We have James Edward Harden. We can’t lose.

    I don't think so.
    Rockets can't play under pressure.
    We are mentally soft.

    To Scottie Quitten...
    To A Karl Malone Bear Hug....
    To Yao/TMac injuries....
    To a Lillard buzzer beater...
    To a CP3 injury...
    and so many others...

    The team is finally all healthy. It has two future Hall of Famers including the best player in the league. The actual head coach will be coaching, not an assistant who proved tonight why he should only ever be an assistant. I believe we can do it, but I'll be queasy the entire way.

    the Warriors will probably win it all this year unless 2 of their 5 stars get hurt. PG hit a tough shot man. Do they beat us in a 7 game series? No, I dont think so. We'll see tho, it looks like we might be facing them in the first round.
