    He's earned my respect. If all the Rockets played with that kind of heart, there's a good chance we would have been swept.

    I read that last night Garcia and Harden were out at a hookah bar; I hope that's the attitude we see from them tonight.

    Beverley has a fever, but will play tonight.

    Dame, take note. As for Beverley, the mind is willing, but it seems like his body is staging a coup.

    I'd call in sick if Lillard was tearing me up too.

    I don't think the Blazers are in superior condition, but maybe they tend to conserve their energy a little more until the 4th. Maybe Terry is using the old "Ropa Dopa" strategy.

    Seriously though when we are on the road, I am happy if the Blazers are close with about 8 minutes left. At this point the starters are ready to come back for the final stretch. We need some energy off the bench tonight from TRob and Wright. My gut says we will lose tonight, but I do not want to rely on having to win game 6, so hopefully we stay close and steal it at the end.

    The title needs to be changed to "CLOSE-OUT GAME 1"

    I wonder how much time the coaches spent assessing Daniels' game these past few days? Clearly, he's getting to places that are comfortable for him on the floor. We need to move him off those places. He's been absolutely killing us.

    Nah. Just "CLOSE-OUT GAME". Labeling it with a "1" implies there's more to come.

    This is it right huurrrrr.

    Did anyone notice Dorell is averaging 2.3 blocks per game in 17 minutes per game this series? That's freaking incredible.

    Let's hope the Blazers run like a Toyota tonight - no brakes and you can't keep them from accelerating!

    And the Rockets are a GM. Just a little force on their keys, and the engine stops with no airbag deployment!
