    All lower seeds with Warriors losing tonight will be up 2-1. I had to post this because most fans here are jumping ship. I haven't looked through all the negative comments from other posts but it was obvious that the referees were not going to let the Rockets win game 3. Tomorrow it will be a dog fight and I believe we will pull it out. Cheers!

    The Rockets being down 1-2 is not justified or alleviated because other teams are laying eggs.

    Kinda funny how the entire semi-finals are playing out the same way.
    2-1, 2-1, 2-1, 2-1.

    It does offer perspective however.

    If Clippers just gave up after falling behind Spurs in a blowout, they wouldn't even be in the 2nd round.

    1st to 4.

    Anything can happen. Curry is airballing shots and Speights just strained his calf.
    Playoffs are a battle, a game of adjustments, and anything can happen.

    So far, the Rockets are the only higher seed to have quit and gotten blown out in both of their losses. The other teams that lost at least put up a fight.

    Thankfully the score doesn't carry over into the next game.

    So do Warrior fans think Curry is soft and a choker? He's down 2-1 in the 2nd Round

    Only 2 upsets: Wizards over Hawks & Grizzlies over Warriors. Of course both one seeds.

    Thats pretty cool considering most thought that the Warriors were indestructable...Rockets losing 2nd round is considered minor to a Warriors loss. You're talking about a major collapse...

    All teams down 2-1 should fire their coaches and GMs

    Yeah, obviously not because the rockets suck, McHale is the worst coach in the NBA, Morey is the worst GM and harden is no MVP candidate :rolleyes:

    The Bulls over Cavaliers is definitely still an upset.

    McHale's the least best coach remaining in these playoffs.

    And Harden hasn't played like an MVP candidate in these playoffs. The criticism for these guys is warranted.
