why are people talking about beverley??
he gives up more points to starting PGs than any other PG in the league, has no skills outsideof threepoint shooting on offense

Rockets in 6 I reckon. Maybe 5 but would be a close one all the way.

Rockets in 6/7
Dwight to have a monster series while Lillard/Aldridge hit some ridiculous clutch shots.
Really exciting match up 2 high scoring teams with quality guards/bigs.
Dwight will average 23/13 on 55-60% FG but his free throw shooting will be suspect at crucial times.

I want the Rockets in the second round. Rockets in 7. Portland will have some fight in them.

Why are people so overwhelmingly picking Houston? I think Portland matches up great with them. I can see this going 6-7 easily...

This, you'd think the Rockets were the 2001 Lakers with the way they're talked about in this thread.
They're pretenders, and not really that good. Portland could very well take that series in 7. Especially if Harden disappears like in the 2012 Finals, or shoots 39% like last year's playoffs.

Haven't the Rockets beaten you guys 3 times this season? Not sure if tonight's game will be any indicator either as McHale may try to rest some of his starters as he seemingly did with Parsons against the Pels last game.

Winning in the playoffs is about all about star power.
We have 2 legit mega stars, Portland has...none.
Houston in 5.

He should play all his players though if they're healthy...Mental edge means a lot and since they're playing tonight, it would be important to keep that mental edge over Portland(if there is one) and don't let Portland get any confidence by winning tonight with the playoffs just around the corner...
