please no. The thunder are a TERRIBLE matchup for us. It was pretty evident that we don't have enough bigs to guard them. We pick out poison everytime we defend them, we would most likely only win 1 or 2 games unless we got a legit 4.
this is a possible matchup that could be a tough draw for the thunder. i personally would rather get golden state in the 1st round and watch the thunder-rockets go head to head.

Easy series for the Thunder. They dominated the first two games and the Rockets won the last one thanks to a miracle, tbh.
Ya, OKC probably sweeps..
As much as I like and have defended Harden, he's been terrible against OKC until last night..
OKC would win in 5, maybe 4 tbh. Harden's not scoring 46 on them again.
Not an ideal matchup for Houston.
The run & gun, iso playing, jump shooting Rox will be outshot by the best jump shooting & iso going team in the league, no contest.
If T-Rob ends up playing and doing good, they'll win a game.
If nothing else, the Rockets will wear their 1st round opponent out. But yeah, hard to see them taking more than 1 game from OC.
it's not like the rocks have a chance to make the 2nd round by any means. any top 4 team would be able to beat them in 5 games or less imho, and isn't it still early to say the lakers are out of the playoffs talk already?
If it means lulling the Thunder into a false sense of security whereupon the Clippers ambush them, why not.
for rating wise, im sure it will end up with spurs/lakers and thunder/rockets 1st round
Dreams don't come true
We have better chances against the Spurs than the Thunderefs.
Thunderefs can chuck as well as the Rockets. A hot spell will put us past most teams.
how can a top 3 seed and 2nd seed rockets meat in the playoffs unless they both advance to 2nd round?
Who would you prefer to play in round 1? Unless you get a top 6 seed, you're likely going to have to play either the Spurs or the Thunder. Would you really rather face our defense or take odds that maybe Refsbrook has an early meltdown and you can steal a game in OKC? Even if you get a 6 seed, then you have to deal with the Clippers, who are probably going to be a tough out knowing how clutch CP3 is.
We can take Monkeyball. Spurs will be though because they are a better team. Thunderefs are just better at our own style of basketball.
I rather play Spurs than Thunderefs unless we can get the 6th speed, which is not out of the question. Golden State is crashing.
wtf rocket fans gettin a big head now thinkn they can beat monkeyball....
fck im not even sure if you clowns can even beat denver
Monkeyball not that good tbh
well we have a split series with them currently, while you guys currently do not
RS dont mean in the playoffs
except for seeding and homecourt advantage
lakers & rockets ain't gonna make the playoffs at the same time, they're both competing for one playoff spot imho
Monkeyball whooped you in Houston without our best player this year and then dropped nearly 50 points on you in the first quarter in LA...
Agreed, it's much better going against the Spurs & Clips, at least you'll play 5 against 5 most of the time. Plenty hard to go against a team endowed with 3 more players on the court, especially when they're equipped with whistle carrying the league agenda.
The Dubs is sliding, and the Rox have decent chance to catch them up in the standing, though i must say the play off is still theirs to lose. I think it will be the Rox at 6th spot, the Jazz at 7th, and the Dubs taking the final spot.
