Yeah definitely. They had two hot starts in the first two games if they can move the ball like they did in game two and create TO’s they will be in this game. GS doesn’t scare them

I hope the Rockets can get 1 of the next 2.

Oh good now he's going to do that gay thing where he pretends not to understand sarcasm and thanks you

Well to be fair is there much he really understands anyway?

Does anyone give the Rockets a chance to win tonight?


Yeah..........HOU is good enough to play with GS @ GS................I really think we see our first nail biter in NBA CONF finals play.

@Montalban already picked them to win, natch

Game 2's results then would show you as a fool for believing that since I was spot on. Here's another:
Conventional wisdom would have the Warriors winning tonight to try and make up for the embarrassing performance in game 2 and not lose until game 4 which is what I predicted. But something tells me they will lose tonight because the Warriors will make such a concerted effort to get points for Curry that they will get away from their normal game and let this one slip away. You heard it here.



I agree that the Rockets have a shot at winning tonight and it would not surprise me at all.......But not because they abandon what they normally do on offense in order to get Curry more points like suggested above.

No. I think the Warriors will win tonight; unless they sleepwalk through the game as they did in game 2 and are too worried about getting Curry shots. Its games 4 and 5 that I have the Rockets winning.

Are you going to come in here and admit how wrong you were when the Warriors win those games?

Or are you going to pretend like you still know this team better than anybody else?

"Yes", and happily so, to the first question and "No" to your second question, especially since there is no "pretending" that I know this team.

How can you admit you are wrong about game 3 when you have not made a real prediction.........You said GS will win unless they "sleepwalk"

Thats just like saying HOU will win unless GS gets hot from 3

You are hedging your bets

Just man up and make a real prediction

Gotta learn to read. I predicted they would struggle trying to get Curry shots and that would take them out of their offense. I was spot on in game 2 and will probably be pretty accurate in game 3 as usual.
A prediction; they should win but probably won't. I'm going to go Warriors in game 3 and Houston will win games 4 and 5

So the post quoted just above yours, you're already backtracking? Got it.

tlance, don't bother. He's got the weak fan shit down cold. Predict doom for 'your' team, so you're either right or 'happy' they won. In other words, meaningless.

Curry already abused on the game's first play.

I'm astonished that people don't see how effective this Houston offense is against a team like GS who want to only out-score you and not work on defense.
