    Off course we still have to win this round, but what If the Warriors upset the Mavs and we play them, can we beat them and their SMALL BALL ??

    I guess we matchup better with Mavs than the Warriors..

    Rox will beat the Warriors because Warriors have no Stars to get FT calls.

    We will have home court if we play against the Warriors right? HC means a lot in the playoffs so I will rather the rockets play against the warriors.

    I don't know...GS plays at a pace that is sooooo fast.......the Rockets would have to hammer them on the glass just like they did against Phoenix, but also keep up with scoring.

    Tell you what though....I would LOVE to see that matchup for 2 reasons.

    1. It means the Rockets would be out of the first round.

    2. It would mean that the Mavs lost.

    That would be an interesting matchup, but Id still put my money on the Rockets. The only thing consistant in basketball is defense and a post game, we have both they have neither, and over a 7 game series, it would show.

    How can you not know? Maybe you do not think at night. GS is not a consistent team. It will be a miracle they can beat the Mavs. They won't be disciplined once they play against the Rox. It is so obvious if Rox ended up playing the GS, Rox would get into the conference final for sure. It would be insane to be afraid of a marginal team who got into the playoff during the last week of the regular season. They haven't competed together for even a whole season. They are certainly going to crack sooner or later.

    Does it matter? are you going to be worried about a team who does not even exist last November? The GS can not be a consistent team.

    if the Warriors win and we win, we will have to beat them, just as we will have to beat Dallas. It doesn't matter who we end up playing, the Rockets are capable of beating either team.

    This kind of overconfidence is what lead us to lose to the Mavs when we were up 2-0.

    The Rockets players can always hit them with their walkers if things get TOO tough...
