    That sucks. We might as well win so he gets extra rest for the Finals. Worst case scenario is Harden goes Frazier to win Game 7.

    CP3 walks better than I do even with a strained hammy and I'm only 5 years older than him lol I'm shook.

    he probably won't, I don't trust Harden. But then again this series has came down to purely defense and grit and role players stepping up.

    we are not going to win even if Harden drops 45 points imo and plays no defense. Trying to outgun them with Harden is a losing recipe. We gotta just grind it out every possession like last game

    Any idea why he'd be traveling with the team despite the injury, I'd think he'd stay back to get round the clock treatment but I guess the trainers got something planned.

    the rockets are missing 30+ pts of offense by missing cp3 and that doesnt include everything else he brings to the table. harden is without a doubt going to have to drop a ton of points along with a big game for hou to have a chance. the overall gameplan changes without cp3 there

    GS's backs are against the wall. theyre going to play with a ton of energy and will to put the game away as quick as possible

    The team is below avg without CP3. HOU losing Game 6 and maybe Game 7. You can't beat GSW with 1 all-star.

    Chris needs to try that old fashioned rub called "Deep Heat." That stuff can make anything feel better for 2 - 3 hours.

    The commercial said it best: "When your back says 'nuh-uh' Deep Heat says, 'Yes you can!'"

    Yes you can Chris!

    With Eric Gordon Starting? Nop. He will get scored on and let every rebound go by him.

    As nice as that is, shouldn't he be getting lots and lots of treatment to prep for game 7?

    I believe in Gordon as he seemed to be doing well as a starter in early season, even though Game 6 against GSW is much different, but not so much in Luc or Anderson. Playing a 6 man rotation and logging in heavy minutes will not bode well for Game 7, if we don’t win.
