If its another blow out may be, but I was kind of kiding and trying to bring some hope like back in 1993.

If we somehow win tonight. It becomes a best of 3 with 2 games at home. With Iggy's injury lingering, it may keep us in this series. Agreed with the above. Must win tonight.

I feel oddly confident about tonight and I've thought we'd lose every game so far. Probably just the desperation kicking in.

Iggy injury and the tendency for Golden State to sometimes take their foot off the gas pedal a bit after stomping somebody.

That's kind of what you are left hoping for playing the Kevin Durant version of the Warriors. That they have significant injury problems and/or get a bit lazy. When they are healthy and locked in, there doesn't seem to be a whole lot that an opponent can reasonably do. That Warriors team with Durant presently has a 26-4 playoff game record.

The narrative of what happened last night is completely dependent on what they do tomorrow night.

Choke City or Clutch City

So if the Rockets lose to one of the most talented teams in the history of the league, it'll be considered a choke?

---

If they lose another game like they did Sunday. Ya

I guess I consider the Warriors' high end to be so good that it's not really possible to "choke" against them. It would be different if they were going out there and laying an egg and we had them on the ropes but didn't perform in the big moment. When you are hoping for a team to have a post-whipping your ass hangover and hoping for that letdown to coincide with you playing your best and hoping that maybe an injury to their 6th or 7th best player gives you just enough to hang in there and make it a series...

We have a great team that would win a championship in a lot of other eras or seasons, but I'm not that confident that even if we add LeBron that we would be the favorites against a healthy Warriors team playing well.

We need to get ahead early and deflate the crowd. If we let the crowd into the game, we'll be in trouble.

---

And hold serve in the 3rd. Dan Tony's gotta come up with a small adjustment to try and take them out of their rhythm coming out of the locker room

Seems like he knows what the issues are from Game 3...let's just hope the good Rockets come to play tonight

Iggy upgrades to questionable. I think he's good enough to play significant minutes

Anybody have a link to stream the game or link to reddit thread?

Iggy not playing per ESPN

The issues were that GS changed their defense, and Houston had no answer.

If all else fails, hopefully his presence will provide a win for us

And just like after game 1, I expect to see us come out with some adjustments to counteract that

Surprised he's out.

Looney getting the start

I feel like we're going to shock the world and go in there and surprise them.

Harden in full ole mode on D

Awesome start

Worst 3 minutes ever to start

Harden doing nothing but trying to draw fouls

Literally no chance in this game. Referees have already decided that this awful warriors defense is allowed to hack on every play. I hope Capela drives a fist through Greens chin.

Oh wait.. this is the Rockets. We don't answer physicality with physicality. We cower in a corner and take more jump shots and let the other team dictate the entire game.

RIP. Hope they can make it interesting at some point this game. Warriors ruined the West/league.

This is embarrassing
