    I actually think we could sweep if we take game 2. This team has been so good at home this season I can't see the Blazers coming in and stealing one. That said, I didn't think the Blazers would get blown out in game 1 at Rose Garden as well.

    If we take a 2-0 lead the only thing that will stop us from winning is going to be ourselves.

    I realize the past 1st round playoffs series' have been tough on you guys, but how did anyone think it would be anything but a Rockets victory? Portland is really good, but we have zero playoff experience. I picked Rockets in 4 at every site that had a poll. If Portland manages to make this a series then that is just icing on the cake of our rebuilding project.

    Roy has one playoff game under his belt. For some reason, I think he still has a lot of talent he hasn't showcased yet. I might have been wrong about Aldridge stepping up and becoming an all-star, but Brandon Roy could be a super-star in the making.

    Tuesday should be fun.

    Lets not be over confident or cocky guys. We always get happy and then end up fucking over. I'm not gonna hope too high just yet. We were up 2-0 at Dallas and we all thought it'd be over. I wouldn't count the Blazers out until we get the 3rd game down. I am predicting a sweep if Rockets win the 2nd game. But again, who thought the Rockets could finally do it WITHOUT McGrady? McGrady is gonna cry himself to sleep every night

    there is absolutely no chance that the rockets win every game in portland in this series.

    i expect portland to win game 2. as of now the most likely scenario is houston winning in 6. if portland steals one in houston, the most likely outcome will go back to being portland in 7.

    Home court has never mattered that much for the Rockets. If they come to play on Tuesday night, expect them to win. Portland will have time to make adjustments and catch the Rockets off guard for game 3 and could steal one if they become complacent.

    Rockets are just more tough than the Blazers, Blake is playing soft, and Roy can't do it by himself. The Rockets should have this series if they just keep manning up the Blazers.
