Dwight has been active around the rim. I wouldn't be surprised of he proved too much for GS in this series

I saw GSW in 7. HOU can win if they go to Dwight early and get bogut on the bench in foul trouble then take it to the rim when he's out. Otherwise HOU would have to go unconscious from 3. Series win isn't likely but really I wouldn't out anything past clutch city.

Also HOU will be able to go back to the smith Howard PNR that killed Dallas.

No, they don't play the kind of defense necessary to slow down the GS offensive onslaught. Plus they won't get the kind of calls in Oakland the success of their offense is predicated on.

I imagine a 4 or 5 games series with 2-3 blowouts.

1st off, Houston has a good bench and a good coach. GS will have some off nights hitting 3's, so the Rockets will probably lose in 6.

2nd'ly, it was awesome to see that chicken shite 2-faced Doc Rivers and his team of fricking Chris Paul pussies lose. I'm so happy that they've been able to "heal" from the recorded private convo of Donald Sterling.

Yes they can. Howard will have his way inside. I'm not leaning either way yet.

If I'm the Cavs, I'm pulling for GS. They want no part of Howard. He was beating LBJ in the playoffs with the fricking Magic.

A little part of me hopes the rockets win, it raises the chances of LBJ getting his 3rd ring


Good luck with that.

Going to be really honest, you guys are about to bitch the shite out of the refs when Green/Bogut get away with murder on Smith/Howard.

Like many have said, Dwight is the secret weapon in this series.

If the Rockets pull this series off, Dwight will gain serious respect in the league. I think he's already gained quite a bit back during this run.

His playoff PER is better with HOU than it was with ORL. Still the best Center in the league when healthy. The HOU training staff did a great job getting him back from the injury I thought they were babying him a little much but it's worked out great so far.

Yeah. It's the first time I've ever felt like Keith Jones didn't screw up.

Good chance I'll be there.

I bought them from the NBA ticket exchange for today but I see that the tickets for the home games haven't gone on sale yet. Hopefully I can get lucky with the timing of when they are released and get them at face. Paid over 2.5x what the guy sitting next to me paid for his and he got his right after game 6 from the Rockets website.
