    Good news is if we somehow win a chip this year, this team will be historically remembered as an all-time great team. Harden will be inducted into the hall of fame the next day.

    The Houston fan in me feels the media will try to slight the accomplishment. let's focus on the 2nd round though.

    Furthermore, my goodness, what a game. what a series.

    We need another big tall body and a pg/sg to make that happen.

    this game is ridiculous, people skipping it for a boring fight are missing the best game of the playoffs

    The rockets have a better chance against the Spurs than the clippers, in my opinion.

    I really don't care the opponent in the 2nd round; both teams have strengths and weaknesses. The one thing I'm worried about is when you have been through the gauntlet like the Clippers and Spurs have, everything else seems simple in comparison. Rockets will have to play like every game is game 7.

    This game deserves 10 overtimes, minimum.

    Both teams have stellar guard play + they have at least 1 premiere big that can shoot free throws..

    Rockets play stupid, high turnover basketball. Spurs will make 'em pay. Pop will also hack the hell out of all their bigs. Green and Leonard on defense [on Harden]. So...Howard v. Duncan?

    I guess the flip side is the BBS freaking out about Crawford and Barnes and Redick being "God" and "can't miss against us".

    Here's a hint: If you keep saying someone is a "God" and "can't miss against us", it's probably your defense! :)

    "Man Aminu is only a [X] percent shooter but he's going bonkers against us!"
    "Man, Crawford is Jordan against us, he can't miss!"
    "Man Marco Belinelli and Patty Mills are DA GODS! They won't miss!"

    Pick your poison: Deandre missing free throws or getting killed on the boards
