That's okay, didn't even make the playoffs anyways.

i know and we haven't even start the game yet
Raptors sweep Wizards 3-0 in regular season and look what happened in the playoff
regular season head to head record can only be used as reference
we were without Jones in all 4 games
two of those games without Howard and two with not so healthy Howard
as long Howard is not in foul trouble (Bogut is a flopper) even we missed the 3 i can see Howard grabbing lot of offensive rebound

Thank you, Minnesota, for giving us Corey Brewer.

Thank you, New York, for giving us Pablo Money.

Thank you, Detroit, for paying Josh Smith to play for us!

vs Dallas, this is easy, we are better team
vs LAC, our advantage is bench
vs GSW, our only advantage is at the center position
Howard must stay in the game for us to have a chance
everyone will have to chase them off the 3 points line and force them to shoot a 2 instead of a 3
got to trust Howard in the paint
and whoever is closest to Bogut better come and box him out when Howard go for the block

Anyone know the schedule for us now? I'm going to be in Puerto Rico for my friends wedding thursday-monday so I'm hoping that it's a semi late game Saturday or I will have to sneak out of his reception without him noticing if the game isn't playing somewhere

Not going to lie I gave up on TE rockets for third piss poor effort in game four and thought they lost game six since I stop caring about the game in the third

congrats on beating the clippers.

what are the changes or improvements done by the Rockets to finish strong to get #2 seed despite injuries to Beverly Montenejous and a healthier Howard.

Congratulations to the Rockets fans and especially you jwise44. Your team continues to surprise me. The best of luck versus the Warriors in the WCF.

Everyone predicting we going to get sweep by the Warriors. That is a good start.

MaxRider · Post #1133 » by **MaxRider** » Mon May 18, 2015 1:06 am

wow just got time to look a the boxscore
rebound, clippers 48, we 40
first time this series the one win the rebound battle didn't win the game

we were underdog against the clippers too
not saying we will win
but i'm sure we will put up a good fight
there may be a game or two we getting blowout by 20+ points
but i trust this team is ready to fight back
playoff is about adjustment
McHale did it twice against Clippers
Kerr did it once against Grizzlies

Do not underestimate Andrew Bogut. He is one of the best defensive centres in the league. He might not light up the scoreboard on the offensive end, but Howard will have trouble with him.

i don't
i'm afraid his flopping will put howard in foul trouble

Harden is better than Thompson and an advantage.
