    It doesn't matter whom we face. We will crush them all.

    Which team is least likely to play us in a way that increases the risk of one of our star players getting injured? That's my main concern. I'm guessing the Wolves, but does anyone disagree?

    Have to go with the pelicans cause spurs are the spurs and Jamal Crawford makes every shot against us.

    I have the exact same opinion about what's best for us, but my hate for the Spurs eggs me on and makes me want to destroy them.

    minny has a lot of dumb players. teague, wiggins, gibson, rose, etc

    they don't have the shooting or interior defense to win more than 1 game against us, if that even.

    Wolves are still trying to win with long 2s. That’s who the rockets want

    Good grief! That made me dizzy reading it. The way the season is ending is really a trip. We've entered a land never visited by a Rockets team and its fans before. Regardless of the outcome, this season will have a prominent place in the history of our team. Greatness is at the edge of our fingertips, with the abyss of failure at our feet. We can't underestimate luck. The basketball gods are so eager to bestow bad luck on a team, and so parsimonious with giving out the good. Maybe we should make our own luck, :cool:

    No McGrady on this team, not worried about first round exits


    EVER AGAIN

    This.

    You are who you are. We are the #1 seed, we don't dodge anyone.

    Kawhi didn't even play last year and we all know how that turned out.

    That being said, we need to play the Spurs. Harden needs revenge against Manu for owning him last year. D'Antoni needs revenge against Popovich for owning him all his life.

    - 7th if SAS loses and OKC wins and MIN wins

    Okay RayRay10 deserves major props (see how to do that above), as this is about as complicated as it gets. However, this line above is my favorite so far.

    This has the Spurs playing GS (which I love)
    OKC would be with the #3 seed I think.
    Houston vs Minn.

    And more importantly, I could see this happening. The Pels can beat the Spurs, forcing them to play a series with the Warriors. I don't see OKC losing. That Wolves vs. Nuggets game, though, is a toss up.

    Spurs will injure our players, Harden got elbowed in the head by Pau Gasol, Patty Mills undercutting Harden, Tucker, Manu undercutting Aaron Brooks, Flopping Artist extraordinaire.

    They are all potentially bad matchups.

    I honestly don’t care at all. We should beat any and all of them.
