    Thank god we were eliminated on a Friday night so we get a little time to mourn without the GARM having to absorb 125 threads of Kellerman, Screaming S A. Smith, Colin, Skip, etc etc, thank god. At least by Monday I'll have moved on and wont give two shiits

    Note: I initially started to name this "The Silver lining" but though better of it.....

    Also good for Harden as he can go to the club on a Saturday night (the best night) where he'll find some company to drown his sorrows.

    I’ve pretty much gotten over last night’s loss already...game 6 against SA and game 7 last year were far worse

    I’ll be rooting for Philly and Denver tomorrow, and if Milwaukee makes the finals, I’ll be rooting for them to take down GS...thank God we’re not dealing with another GS vs. Lebron finals

    of course I am...this loss was nothing like last year’s game 7, that was really devastating...I’m over this L

    Harden plus a bunch of role players will never win a title, I will be foolish to ever think otherwise...if Morey doesn’t bring in a star this summer, then I’ll already know what to expect for next season...it is what it is

    Yeah as my fandom has evolved I have become more of a Rockets fan than a Basketball fan. If the Rocket aren't playing I don't care about the rest of the NBA. I forgot how much you love Lebron so I guess this is expected.

    This loss is just ass devastating and more humiliating. Rockets had a full squad and fell to a team with Curry scoring 0 in the first and in foul trouble and Draymond in foul trouble. Rockets lost to the role players.

    Rockets lost to Curry and Klay combining for 60 points plus the role players...I mean, it’s not like GS is all of the sudden some bum team without KD

    for me, game 7 was far worse and it’s not even close...that made me not want to watch basketball...this game just showed me to never get my hopes up about something I always knew was the case, but hoped could be overcome anyways, and that is that Harden plus role players will NEVER win a title...so it is what it is, I had a great day today

    I’ll hope for some great things this summer, and if not, then I’ll enjoy the regular season and expect the usual 2nd round or possibly WCF exit

    It's been declining ever since Tyrion killed Tywin. I think GRRM got stuck after the first three books, stumble-butted through the next two, and let writers block and fame rob us of the last two.

    A picture's worth a thousand words, so:

    Shameful how characters like Stannis, Tyrion, and Littlefinger were made idiots by the showrunners. Still, it's been quite the spectacle, right?

    How cool would it be if danaerys was dating James harden ?

    I guess it's nothing without a win .

    But I had a vision of us winning game 6 and then she shows up to game 7 in costume and after we win it she just starts viciously making out with harden

    I was a little high last night
