I've never seen a team dominate and then just all of a sudden be afraid of playing at all. That was just crazy.

I did not watch in real time.

I feel as if the highlights do not do it justice. I think I need to watch a replay of the 4th quarter.

Great highlights, been looking for wifi all day long so haven't been able to see any.

Hope they continue it tomorrow.

I haven't seen such lackadaisical defense since the last time I watched NBA highlights.

It was a numbing feeling if you root for the Rockets.

What made the comeback so crazy to watch in real-time is that the Clippers broke the game open in the 3rd quarter and went up by like 20 points. Your thoughts were just "here we go again... gonna get blown out in LA again and the series is gonna be over".

LA just kept maintaining their lead and it already felt like the game was decided and the end of the 3rd quarter and rest of the 4th was just a formality.

Then the Rockets get it down to 13 to end the quarter, and you start saying you know they really aren't that far behind. But the score hovers around 13 for a while until about mid-way through the 4th. There's only about 6 minutes left in the game.

Then they get it to 10. Then 9 to get it to single digits. And you're thinking it's possible. Then they get it down to 5 and you can feel the momentum shifting, and you're like holy crap they could seriously win this.

Then they just keep getting stops over and over again and Smith hits a lay-up to cut it to 3. Then Smith hit's a 3 to tie. Then Brewer hits a 3 to go up by 3, and you can't believe what you are watching.

And they keep pouring it on.

The Rockets were up by 15 points until Chris Paul hit a meaningless 3 at the buzzer to give the Rockets a 12 point win.

They didn't just barely win at the end of the game... they were up by 15 points themselves and it all happened in a span of about 4 minutes.

One of the craziest games I've ever seen.

Former Rocket John Barry seemed disappointed after shitting on the Rockets the entire game.

More than willing to watch the Mad Men finale on DVR if it means Memphis sends it to 7.

Josh Smith hitting 3 3s that he shot with confidence was easily the craziest part of that game.

That was one of the more enjoyable 4th quarters of basketball I've ever seen.

Couldn't help but cheer for the Rockets during that. Was especially enjoyable as the announcers had pretty much written the Clippers into the conference finals midway through the 3rd.

This isn't the first time he's done that. He can get hot, and he seems to do it when the team really needs it in crunch time.
