Is it even possible?

What was/is Vegas and other betting outlets paying?

Curry looked pretty good upon his return. So no help there.

The Rockets don't seem to play with any urgency until the season is on the line, so maybe. That said, Golden State had one of the best 1% of seasons in NBA history, so they are about as tough of a team to try and pull that off against as any.

The Rockets only chance imo is if Steph Curry is either out or is no longer himself after that nasty spill last night.

I don't believe I could stand it. Midst would run around with Howard on his shoulders torturing me.

God no. Please.

Exactly, even if the Rockets steal a game in the Oracle, the odds are still very long. But like I said, the issue going forward is Steph and if he goes back to being himself going forward. If he has to sit out a game or his shot is altered by his cognitive disability, it's a game/series changer.

That Red Sox one was queer. Even at 3-0 it did not feel right.

Though this one truth be told feels a little queer as well. There is a small, tight little knot deep in my stomach, even a little below that stomach that won't release.

The thought of Midst ridin' high & wide with that fool Howard as his banner is worrisome. I honestly do not know if I could take it.

He's out for blood since we defied the odds in the draft, Cub. Like starving a Damn lion.

Down 3-1 with two games on the road, including Game 7? No fucking way.

Yep, that flattened Midst's ears. He's on a mission. This is his last chance. GS vs CLE is harmless. HOU vs CLE is Midst's wet dream. A big puddle of shaky puddin' on the bathroom floor next to the toilet. Been there---done that.

You never told me if you're pissed Nash's flop cost you a chance to sweep the Cavs in the Finals.

I was laughing when JVG said it would "never" happen which is ridiculous. If you play enough series, then sooner or later it will happen. Baseball proved that.

This convo happens frequently, but the comeback never did.

There's a reason a team gets down 3-0, and that reason keeps them from overcoming the deficit. 2-0 is different, you've lost two on the road most often and you adjust. You have to win 2 of 3. Knowing you're going on the road, knowing you have excuses to lose, knowing you were a lower seed, knowing you avoided the sweep... knowing all that... teams often fold in game 5.
