Rockets/OKC is a three-point shooting contest.

I think we can take either of these teams. They don’t scare me. I would definitely prefer facing Miami though

Same here. Miami won't be easy by any means, but I think we still matchup up pretty well with them.

I am confident we can take them but Miami gave us a hard time even without Butler. They will be very hard to eliminate. They are a deep, very well coached, experienced, mentally tough team.

Yeah, but I think that was more of one of those fluke games that regularly happens when you play a team without their star. We let off our gas a bit and the other team plays with increased energy. And we still had limited playing time for Kemba that game.

We're 2-1 against them this year, and we were missing Hayward and Smart in the first game and Tatum in the second game. I think we have the clear advantage over them.
Recovering Joe Skeptic, but inching towards a relapse.

Lu Dort, of all people, is keeping OKC in this game.

Harden’s game is disgusting, just not a fun player to watch.

Man, Harden better either pull his head out of his butt, or hope they won despite him.  The Game 7 failures are pretty glaring.
Yup

Yeah, 2-11 is inexcusable

Suffice to say, it's a pattern of choking in game 7 of playoff series. Enough with the constant excuses that his fans give him.

Jamal Murray seems to be headed down the same path ;D

Yeah it’s clear he has some mental block at this point. That said even if Harden was playing well and even if the Rockets advance I don’t think they have any chance of winning a chip with this play style of offense.

There was a whole lot of succumbing to the pressure in that game last nights.

Did anyone else notice that this Game 7’s score matched last night’s Game 7 final score of 80-78 with a couple of minutes left in the 3rd!
Yup

I know he’s good, but every time I’ve seen Gilchrist-Alexander play he’s seemed super soft.
Yup

An undrafted rookie has shown more poise and comfort in a game 7 than James Harden.  What even is that?

The Rockets let OKC stay in striking distance late into game 7. CP3 can smell blood, he would love nothing more than to knock out Harden.
