JJ Redick scored 26 pts in the first game and 22 in the second game while Harden had 15 in the first game and 12 in the second.

So Redick being out is pretty big.
Harden is still a work-in-progress. He can score, but he can't help his teammate that much - Yao Ming

Still think the Clippers are the better team but the Rockets are far different from what they were in the beginning of the season. Need this win in a big way

1) Alexandra Daddario. Nice!

2) glad that we didn't have to resort to scare tactics like "Mr. E will start the game thread." Great work as always, Meatcookie!

3) huge test tonight. This Rockets team is different from the team the Clippers played the first time around. This could be a very telling game on many levels.


GO ROCKETS!!!

1) I just got caught up with True Detective a few days ago... after episode 2... wow, really have an appreciation for Alexandra.

2) I thought the Kings game was the next day. My wife was out for the evening and I needed to put both my sons in bed before I could get to it... I was 45min too late, thread was created. = )

We shouldn't rely on talent alone since The Clips are stacked w. talents as well.
A team that moves the ball would win.
