I don't know if anyone brought this up already but the first home playoff game we have had the past 2 seasons, we have lost and it wasn't even close. The Rockets jumped on us early in game 1 last season and we got blown out, same thing happened in game 3 against the Suns. Unfortunately this is probably going to be the reason we don't advance this year as well. The key to going deep in the playoffs is protecting our home court. Mentally we are just not there in our first home playoff games and that has to change for the future. We must win the first playoff game at home to succeed.
Agreed. With Camby, Miller, a healthy Roy .....and the additions of Bosh and Rudy Gay! - all will be good next year. And let Oden come around slowly (off the bench next year) and we'll win the first home game and the second!
