I hope Harden doesn’t come out dribbling the basketball too much. Harden is a great player but, he cannot afford to handle the ball too much because of turnovers. CP3 is better at setting up plays, and breaking down the other team’s defense. My only concerns are that Eric Gordon and the bench player’s showing up, and I hope that Green gets more playing time. Ryan Anderson has been disappointing the Rockets should pay him out of his contract after this season. CP3 should make Curry play defense by making big shots early and often to keep Curry from hiding behind the picks and shooting 3’s. Capella will have to show Draymond Green that he is not backing down from his foolishness kicking, and jawing on the court. Ref’s will hopefully be neutral. I expect a Rockets win tomorrow night. GO ROCKETS!

Last night was a solid effort by Houston. I will not run from my opinion, even after the Rockets win last night. I never expected Houston to get swept. I thought, and still think it ends in 6. At the end of the day, Houston dropped home-court and got a split. That is a win for Golden State. Now, Houston has to steal one in Oakland. If they don't, I think they win Game 5 and get ended in Game 6. If they split the next two, it goes 7.

From my perspective, despite the solid victory, it was Paul who was guilty of dribbling too much at times

I don’t get why we play this stupid iso ball. Looked like they threw the game last night

Harden is an iso player. Chris Paul covers it up, at times, but at the end of the day that is just who they are. Houston relies heavily on James and his game is iso. It works in the regular season because teams aren't play as much strategy based defenses in those games. Playoff defensive intensity is different, and Harden's game has very rarely translated to playoff success because of it. It wouldn't matter though, GS is at a different level than any team in the league.

With CP3 out the Rockets need Harden to score 35+, with Gordon and Ariza having big games as well. Capela, Green, and Tucker need to keep on doing what they are doing. But one of those first two have to go offf. Don’t think they can’t beat them without CP3. But with the Warriors back to the wall and back home, it’s a tough task.

Harden will have a MVP performance tonight. Gordon will step up and rise to occasion. Tucker and capella will keep bringing what they got. And everyone thinking CP3 out and rockets can’t win tonight they pull a rabbit out the hat and beat the warriors. Rockets win, Vegas wins, NBA wins. We all win! Haha

Rockets got out scored 64-25 in the second half.  The rockets scored 25 points in a half.  That’s terrible.  I knew they were in trouble when mid-way through the 3rd they were 13-26 from 3 and golden state was somehow still tied with them.

      It's a great day in SETX!

      By CardinalBacker · Posted

      The locals have almost finished firing the first ever Speaker of the House from Southeast Texas upon direct order of Trump and his minions.   It's a sad day... Locals have decided that being represented by the most powerful man in the House didn't mean anything.... they'd rather a political novice to represent this part of SETX.  And why is that?  He wasn't MAGA enough for them.  Who cares that it will hurt locally... What Trump says, goes.     Just yesterday I saw Trump on television demanding that we fire Phelan... How he's a RINO, weak on the border, etc... why?  Because he wouldn't overlook the criminal actions done by Ken Paxton, one of Trump's key supporters in the effort to overturn the 2020 Election and allow Trump to remain in office despite the will of the voters.   Trump never even mentioned Covey's name, and I doubt he would recognize Covey if Covey walked up with a cup of coffee.  Who cares that it's bad for SETX?  Not the R voters from SETX!   Then I saw Covey's preacher on a different ad tell a bald face lie.  Why should Phelan be fired?  "He put Democrats in positions of power in the House."  Really?  That's been the position of BOTH parties for as long as anybody can remember.  They ALWAYS give the minority party committee chairmanships.  But in 2022 the Rs decided that the practice should stop.  Democrat voters should not be allowed a voice in the crafting of legislation if there is a single majority Republican seat in the House, according to the Rs.  Representative Government?  Never heard of it, huh? Never did I believe that we'd have an abortion ban, constitutional carry, huge cuts for school property taxes, and Texas law enforcement being greenlit to enforce immigration law.  But it all happened while Phelan was speaker.  Without a doubt, the most conservative Speaker, ever.  But still a dirty RINO for not being MAGA enough.  It would be funny if it weren't true.   I've been following politics long enough to remember when Rs couldn't get elected in Texas... I'm confident that we're headed back that direction.  I mean, it's obvious that with population shifts we'll be turning blue eventually.  I think that the behavior of the leadership of the Republican Party is going to cause that shift sooner than expected.  I won't be surprised to see Democrat Senators and possibly even a governor elected within 12 years.  Maybe less.  The Rs will be a party apparatus without a voting base behind them.
