    that we will win game 2 and the series .Honestly everything that could go wrong that could did go wrong and we still had the opportunity to tie it or even win.


    I am now more confident then before the tip off of game 1 with the right adjustments and Rivers back we should be better.we wont shoot that bad again and Clint will bounce back. The upside is to great for us to not improve.

    Obviously James and Chris will need to play better but the role guys just need to play better and we got this.

    I think most importantly the refs with the world watching won’t pull another hatchet job of that magnitude

    silver and refs be like "lelz, rox fans are confident"

    rockets are the league's villain and the league is treating us like we're the pacers during the jordan and early 2000s lakers era. substitute miller with harden.

    We haven’t even played against the worriers double mvp threat of Foster / Bros.
    We barley lost against 5 all stars. We have no chance against the ultimate death line up...
    The Basketball Gods must intervene!!!!!!!!!!

    I sure hope we do. I doubt donkey and loony will go off early, but then again Curry and Thompson weren't themselves much.

    Not really going out on a limb here but game 2 is a must-win, because in all likelihood they're splitting it here.

    You can make the case that GSW didn't play their best as well. Expecting a loss in Game 2.

    They won’t get bailed out by the refs again and the rockets upside is more.i don’t expect Clint and Tucker to score 4 points and the bench will be better. The warriors have no bench.

    No doubt about it... Took us shooting like sh*t, Refs against us, Clint playing like a B, and Harden missing everything............ for them to win by 4.

    Love the Rockets effort on D...

    The Rockets in 6.

    Bless your optimism, OP.
    I have to tell you something about reality today: what you believe is rational . . . the opposite is going to happen. This is how common people become marks.

    The Warriors shot the ball very poorly from three point range. Will that continue?

    I agree. One of the lowest points in the season was that Lakers game right after the All-Star break. I think we had lost two games prior to the All-Star break. Then, the magnificent rig job that cost us the win in LA happened, and resulted in low morale for the Rockets fandom. Players and coaches all frustrated. To top it all off, we were ridiculed and mocked in the media for days after that game. Then what happens? Rockets smash the Warriors at Oracle, proceed to win 9 straight games, and finish the season losing only 4 more games. Biased refereeing and scorn from the media have served as rocket fuel before, and I believe they will do so again.
