    I'm not watching the finals regardless, but the rockets losing is like the yankees losing. It's the best thing about the sport.

    No it's not. I'm bipolar. That is not the definition of insanity at all. I hate that saying. It's trusting the math. Cavs couldn't hit a shot in the first half last night but LeBron trusted his teammates and kept passing to them. Eventually, they hit shots.

    Chris Paul over there looking like he's ready to cry.

    I didn't watch last season. I'm only watching now to root for CP3, Harden, and Houston fans to lose. After that I won't care.

    Cavs had a chance against the Rockets. Not against the Warriors - especially if Iggy's back.

    Still, I guess that means we just got swept by the team that lost to the NBA champions, so WE don't look as bad.

    You guys know that expression, you live by the three, you die by the three? The rockets season in a nutshell.

    I dislike the rockets more than any team. As good as Chris Paul is, he has always been a cry baby to the refs, glad they lost. Their fans are trash too

    So will Harden get killed by the talking heads? Can't get it done in big games.

    I don’t think any of us want another warriors Cavs series but what can you do? Lebron is amazing and the east sucks and only one team in the west could give the warriors a decent challenge and honestly the rockets of any team in the league had the best chance of beating the warriors, I could honestly see the Cavs getting swept

    Chris Paul and Harden skunked out of the finals. Houston fans will be crying about all the missed threes.

    It's a good day.

    :cheers:

    OMG.....it will be the Warriors against the Cavs! Who could have possibly imagined it? So much drama this season wondering who would make the Finals!

    EXCITING!!!
