    Due to the current turmoil with the Warriors, the time for the Rockets to strike now. KD is extremely sensitive, and I don’t believe he gets over this. They may have to trade Draymond. Either way the so called best team ever finally has a true chink in their armor. If we can stay focused on defense, and can add at least one upgrade to the current rotation preferably a wing and or back up big, I believe we are close too having enough too win it all this year.

    Ennis seems to be getting more comfortable in his role and Clark has been a revelation. I never doubted CP, James seems to be playing with more urgency, and EG is slowly coming out of the Jimmy Butler daze he seemed to be in. Hartenstein is growing on me but I’m not sure I would trust him in a tough playoff series. Time will tell with him, but he has to start finishing around basket at an above average clip. Clint is showing flashes, and he seems to be competing again.

    Jeff B is back to run the defense. Enough said.

    All hope is not lost. Rockets fans should have a renewed sense of excitement today. I can smell the blood in the water off the upper California coast all the way from South East Texas.

    This is not s knee jerk thread, at least I hope not lol, but I believe that our time is now.

    Lol you're saying golden State and the ancient Roman Empire are similar? That they'll both implode from within? Interesting, let's hope so. ☺

    The media is really running with this. KD and Green can co-exist.

    Of course, I would love to be wrong but I see all of them getting their monster long-term deals. Iggy/Livingston out

    The fact that you have to clarify that this isn't a knee jerk thread, makes it a knee jerk thread.

    I don't think the Warriors will suffer for the Durant-Green situation but it doesn't matter, we basically beat them 5 months ago, no reason to think we can't do it again, at least unless Boogie comes back 100% and fits in perfectly, which is not exactly a given.

    We’re still using CP3 wayyy too much. Hopefully we win 5 of the next 6 and get our record up. We really need to be able to give him games off later on in the season
