Lots of games with playoff seeding implications in both conferences.

The Rockets are in such a demoralizing place. I think tonight is a blowout no matter what. Just not sure which team wins.

HOU roster is full of vets. I don't think it will be a blowout at all. Both teams have too much to play for.

Playoff seeding scenarios for the West are still making my head hurt, and there are only 2 games left

The fans are. I don't think the players are at all.

I guarantee the players are frustrated after being Top 4 all year. But it is true that none of them have dealt with the shite the fans have. They haven't been here long enough for that.

I know you were half joking, but the players probably felt more sorrow in one night alone, Lillard's series winner, than any fan has in a lifetime... And I'm being 100% serious.

Rockets will most likely be 5 or 6 I don't see SAS or LAC losing.

5 v POR and 6 v LAC are two series the Rockets would win imo.

Yes and no. I think a lot of times players can become mercenaries. I think Harden probably felt it for sure. Dwight too. But some players just don't care like fans do.

Not true. Players get over things like that quicker than fans.

Fans are carrying years and years of a team's history emotionally.

To a player, that was just one disappointing season. It was a game that they could control. They felt they left it all out on the floor, and they just got beat. You can accept that as a player when you give it your all but you just come up short.

A fan doesn't have that same feeling of they "did their best" because they weren't out there competing.
