[FireDavidKahn]

Don't care about the outcome. Getting into the play offs got the monkey off this teams back. Next year LETS GO

[Proctor]

not with prince luc around. is he out for the season tho?

Looks likely he's out for the first round at least

[imdaman99]

I don't know if y'all are trolling the Rocket fans but I can't see the Rockets losing in the 1st round

sucks. they still have ariza tho.

jimmy vs james

clint vs kat

cp3 & ej gon rape wolves backcourt

hope wolves puts up a fight

[UK2K]

Rockets in 5.

Minnesota plays absolutely no defense and is terrible on the road.

[MJistheGOAT]

Rockets in 6.
T Wolves with Butler are a mischievous 8 seed, though

[SaltyMeatballs]

Rockets in 5

[NBAGOAT]

ariza on wiggins is fine. I could see it maybe going 6 however but I'm going say Rockets in 5

[dankok8]

This Minny team is very good. They were the 3rd seed at one point before Butler went down. And since he came back they won three straight.

I think Houston will eventually win this but it will be a tough series. I say Rockets in 7.

[ImKobe]

Wolves have the offense to match tbh so this shouldn't be a 4-5 game series.

[DJMcDonald]

Will be interesting watching playoff KAT and Wiggins for the 1st time

[UK2K]

Wolves have the offense to match tbh so this shouldn't be a 4-5 game series.

DRating:
Houston - #6 - 106.84
Minnesota - #27 - 111.86

ORating
Houston - #1 - 115.48
Minnesota - #4 - 114.24

Minnesota may win one. If they play out of their minds.

Throw in the fact Minnesota is 17-24 on the road and... Houston is going to score 115 a night.

[Im Still Ballin]

Minnesota could stretch this out to 6. They have an unorthodox offense with KAT sniping from the 5 position.

Rockets potential path to the Finals:

-Butler, Towns, Westbrook, George, Anthony, Steph, Klay, Durant

... that is a gauntlet of All-Stars to go thru


Rockets-4 Wolves-1

OKC plays Warriors in the semis if they go through, not Rockets
