You mean 'our Rockets'? Yes, you do - and yes, it IS a good day.

Clutch City is back in business.

Not a big basketball fan only watch Rockets now and then but have been following them in the playoffs. Really happy to see them advance to the Western Conference finals. Go Rockets!!!

playoffs 4 years in a row isn't choking. No one seems to be questioning their timely success while the Lakers aren't in the post season. What a major market lucky break that is.

The Clipper did choke but I don't want to hear a soul blame Chris Paul. Dude plays his heart out every game! Sucks that his teammates decided not to show up. And he doesn't have a bench. I said it, that Spurs game took a lot out the Clippers..and they took their foot off the pedal against the Rockets and could never recover.

I would actually root for the Rockets if not for Harden, Howard, and Morley.

GO WARRIORS

I will blame Chris Paul. He is the leader of the team. In game 6, he should have been more selfish offensively. No one else could make a shot, and Blake has made a habit out of disappearing in the 4th Q of playoff games. Paul is often too pass happy, when he should be more aggressive. I wish he would have been more pass happy in game 7 against the Spurs. Instead, he was very aggressive and it paid off for the Clippers.

I understand Howard, and I sorta get not liking The Beard...but Morey? Anyone who irritates Mark Cuban that much has to be doing something right. :cool:

Whether anyone likes Howard or not, the Rockets have no chance without him.....or even if he is at 60%. Tonight's game is pretty much a must-win, they will not come back from 0-2 against that team :(

the league wants Warriors- Cavs. That's the only thing that's going to happen.

amazing how Van Gundy and Mark Jackson just spent the whole 17 point Rockets comeback bragging on Golden State, if you couldn't see the game you'd have no idea the game was tied.

I'm a Spurs fan, I despise Cuban as well......supposedly there is a code amongst GMs and Presidents, and Morey, more often than not, has broken that code. Basically, he speaks with forked tongue. Another GM like this was the guy from Portland......so I found it to be poetic justice that neither team has done diddly squat during the tenures of said GMs.

woulda rather had the TNT broadcast team - but that's the draw. I thought the officiating was pretty horrid at times but the Rockets STILL had their shots. that last pass by Howard back to Harden (who was being trapped) was a killer.

despite an overwhelming number of predictions that the Rockets would be blown out at the Warriors, they hung tough and had opportunities to steal one. so now they must hold serve at the Toyota Center...

i may be in the minority but i'm not ready to count the Rockets out.
