Why do you think they're done?

they might double aldridge off the post but portland will have shooters ready for when it happens. it's not like they will have an answer for lilliard as well.
chandler parsons should have shut about being the best small forward on the series because batum outclasses him and actually hits big shots down the stretch. houston doesn't have the profile of a team that comes back. they might win and cover tonight but they are done.

Here's what I gather from the last few posts: t-wizzle doesn't understand maths. The Houston doubters don't understand basketball.

Suns +7.5 is a play. Doesn't need to be a large one, but it's a must play.

Lol what a moron that dude is.
Pauul the Rockets have finally gone to the Howard-Asik look and it is making things tougher on Aldridge. He still scored the last two games but he really had to work and they weren't able to just throw it in to him and let him score at will.

Hahah are you watching the games?? Durant & Westbrook suck so bad together. The thunder suck as a whole team and Scott brooks is a terrible head coach. Memphis is clearly the better TEAM. Durant & Westbrook shooting 30 shots a game To much hero ball with the thunder and not enough other teammates involved in their offense which sucks really bad by the way. I don't know what was a worse offense to watch, the bulls offense or the thunder offense. I'd say both were pretty terrible to watch

Decent VALUE???? Please kid why don't you just go donate that money to charity. Because there is absolutely no fuxking way the Houston rockets are winning this series. Absolutely no chance...
San Antonio will win by double digits tonight. The well-oiled machine will be in full force. Crisp ball movement and open 3s. Parker should bounce back in a big way tonight. I might make a bet on Spurs alternate spread.
Rockets -5.5 -105 (4x)
Rockets Series Price +380 (1x)
Houston has made the necessary adjustments and should send this series back to Portland. There's always the chance that these guys lay an egg but I think from a situational standpoint and with the defensive adjustments on Aldridge that Houston should win and cover this game.
The Series bet is decent value. I don't think a Game 7 is out of the question here.

Ok kid. Let's see what happens. I expect to see you in here if they do in fact win.
Let's not confuse this bet with me predicting a Rockets comeback. I do think it's well within the realm of possibility and if they manage to force a Game 7 then I'm going to have a -260 team at +380? I hope you realized this before you decided to shit on the pick.

They will win today, yes. Do they cover the spread? I do not know.
But tonight, Houston wins.

I think the rockets are done. Just my opinion, but it looks like the blazers have controlled the majority of the series, especially the second half. I look for Houston to be up early, but POR will take control. Still potential for another overtime game. I'm on POR ML +205 for 3 units.

I can't agree with you there. Houston outplayed Portland the last two games.

Portland just got lucky the last couple of games at the end by playing a young inexperienced Houston team.
Houston HAS outplayed Portland. Houston is a better team statistically.
The only thing Portland has going for them is for the simple fact of Jeremy Lin. Lin turns the ball over more than ANYONE in the western conference. If Lin didn't turn the ball over and a couple of people stepped up on defense a little better, Portland would NOT be leading this series.
Houston was a shoe in on this round. They just shot themselves in the foot.
Just because only 8 teams or so have ever come back from a 3 game deficit to win the series, doesn't mean that Houston cannot.
I dont understand why why people hop on Portlands nuts like they are the better team.

I was being completely sarcastic and joking with another poster.
OKC looks like shit and is playing the worst they have in three years.
Either Scott Brooks isn't telling the players to quit jacking bad shots or he is and they just aren't listening.
Either scenario is bad.
