    we gotta remember players like to have their best games against the rockets for some reason.

    I think Minny can surprise if Butler is healthy. They were rolling until he got hurt. They got more talent then the other low seeds

    We’ve all wanted okcs season to end so many times this year.

    I think your houston rockets will be assigned the task.

    did westbrook just fly up the court for an out-of-control layup up 11 with 1 minute to go? i mean, if he was trying to get an assist towards his triple double, then obviously risking the win is worth it and his teammates would have to understand, but this?

    We blew them out by 18 the 3 times he played.

    Also we have an offensive rating of 130 in P&Rs against them.

    Remember that 30 point win we had against SAS in game 1? Thats what I'm feeling from this one.

    What's with the MVP chants? Thought Rockets game was at 8?

    Burks should be in the playoff rotation, Snyder.

    Crowder is just absolute garbage from behind the arc.

    If PG is hurt, Melo and Russ could lead OKC to a late game collapse.

    Overreaction aside. Jazz can win game 2 given how wildly inconsistent OKC is.

    even with no real hope of winning this game, seeing crowder take that 3 was soul-crushing. burke is making everything but crowder's giving himself the neon green light and seems to every game. i think one of the early shots of this game was a crowder off the dribble 3 with 10+ on the shotclock. that should just be an auto benching. if crowder had any decency he would've checked himself out.
