Can? Um, yes?

Will they? I don't think so but who knows. If Harden gets 10-15+ free throws a game, anything is possible.

Howard needs to dominate for Houston to win next series IMO

Agreed. And it's possible. He should dominate the boards.

I think the best way to beat Golden State is to slow it down and play an inside outside game. As good as Howard is he's not going to draw double teams in the post and be that guy.

They'll have to beat Golden State at a pace Golden State has been the best team in the league at all year. Will be difficult, but anything can happen

Who the frick is Harden gonna cover

The Dubs were 4-0 against the Rockets in the regular season, all by double digits. With the defense ratcheted up in the playoffs, on paper there is no reason to expect any different. Gonna be lopsided.

Yes, I was wrong to doubt them before. Although the Clippers gagged it away.

I don't see how the Rockets slow down Warriors. Dubs in 5.

In 1995, the Rockets played in the Western Semi's against the Suns. The Rockets came back from a 3-1 deficit to win the series.

They then played in the Western Conference Finals against the Spurs. Spurs were the #1 seed, won over 60 games, and David Robinson won the MVP over Hakeem Olajuwon.

Oh, and the Spurs beat the Rockets 4-0 in the regular season.




Sound familiar?




Olajuwon thoroughly dominated Robinson and the Rockets beat the Spurs 4-2 to reach the Finals.
