Now let's follow that with a Rockets run, please.


We need more hero ball from Westbrook.

OK, I'm back. Got really distracted there.

What's happening?

I like how we're not settling 3s and attacking the rim. Let's close this gap.

I blame all of you.

You made me do this. Any one of you could have started a Game Thread; but instead you chose to let me start it.

This is on all of you. But just in case you are not done learning your lesson for the post season, I am fully prepared to start the next Game Thread as well. Don't make it a situation like today where I did not see one on game day and had to act.

I will do it. I will pull this car over, dammit!

Haha! Piss tits.

Sucks that last shot didn't go in, but for a moment I was almost certain it would and I have no problem with it. As amazing a finish as it would have been had that landed, that was still a lot of fun to watch down the stretch.

On to the next one.

Well, one of our beloved Houston teams came back from being down by four to win it in extra innings.

Let's hope the other one can do the same, preferably in regulation though.

It's all part of the strategy. Give them easy baskets and make no effort to stop them in order to lull them into a false sense of security when they're up by 20+, and then BAM! The Rockets then proceed to go on a crazy run to victory down the stretch whilst ensuring many a heart attack to their fans in the process. The Thunder won't even know what hit them.

It's quite brilliant, really.

So I didn't get to see really any of the first half, but after watching that third quarter it sure feels like they're lucky to only be down by four.
