*Rockets vs Thunder playoff thread*

Game 1, sunday-8:30.

OKC in 5.

Good luck Houston lol.  8)

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

Thunder in 6 IMO.

[Honest Abe]

Rooting for the Rockets, but OKC too much fire power. Thunder in 6.

[king]

Rockets could take a game or 2, if they play mistake free ball. Make Westbrook frustrated. Jeremy Lin needs to stop playing like an average point guard, Harden needs to limit his turnovers. Thunder has too much experience. Rockets are youngest team in the nba, and they need 1 more piece to be a title contender.

[king]

Not looking good for Rockets so far.

What a game 2 battle!  Rockets had this game won, until that no call when perkins grabbed parsons arm by the end! Beverly is a beast! Now we know we can play with them.  Most likely wont win this series, but we can give them one heck of a fight!

[Honest Abe]

Wasn't able to watch the game last night, but I recorded it and watched it early this morning. Rockets did not give up after being down 15. Very impressive for such a young team. Gotta love the fight and perseverance they demonstrated. I agree King; I don't see them winning the series, but they will definitely make the Thunder earn it.

Sometimes I think Harden tries to force too many things, but then his creativity makes those around him better.

Can't believe the hold on Parsons from Perkins wasn't called. That's about as cheap and dirty as it gets, IMO. If he will hold someone so intently, what won't he do to get an advantage? I've always liked Perk, but I don't like cheaters. After watching the replay though, I don't think Parsons would have been able to make a play anyway.

Westbrook is out wit torn meniscus. Playoffs just shifted big time!

[king]

Rockets force game 5. They been playing them tough past 3 games.

All they did was prolong the inevitable.

Yeah that's true but was the rockets down five key players three of them being starters and one of them being Kobe Bryant?

[king]

Excuses!

[mytwocents-28]

Smh......

Haters gonna hate.

[king]

Just like I told u before. I would talk the same way with mavs, spurs, and jazz fans.

Texan fans know how I am during football season ;)

[PhatMack19]

OKC has to resort to fouling Asik everytime with over 5 minutes left.  Doesn't seem like the best team in the West to me. 

[PhatMack19]

This is terrible to watch. 

[PhatMack19]

Good win for the Rockets.  They are a fun, young team.


OKC will probably win this series but OKC is done without Westbrook. 

[king]

Going back to h-town baby!

James Harden=superstar.

I love the way beverely is playing right now! Better then Jeremy Lin!

They need to get rid of hack a shaq rule. Bush league.

[mytwocents-28]

Good win rockets.

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

sad thing is: Rockets should be moving on to round 2. if they would have hit their FTs game 2 & 3 they would have closed out last night

[king]

Game 6 tonight. GO ROCKETS!!

[king]

Kevin Durant has been talkin a bunch of noise this playoffs.

Yes he has and isn't backing it up.  This series just proves how much better LeBron is than the rest of the league.  Durant may be 2nd, but it isn't even close.
