Parker is the best playoff PG of the 2000's.

You won't find a bigger playoff performer at the position than him since the start of the millenium.

What a player.

My guess is that if we do not score here and extend the lead to 3 or 4, we will lose.

Just a gut feeling.

Gotta have a basket here.

Hell yes.....so regardless of what happens here, we should have the final shot of the game.

And it is Parker of all people who makes the big mistake.

Crazy.

I didn't expect Blair to hit both, but at least he made it a 2 possession game where we just have to keep making our FT's to seal the win.

Can't ask for more than that.

Are you fucking serious?

It can never be easy for fricking teams in Dallas.

What the hell was Ellis thinking?
I think he was trying to throw upcourt to Harris, but obviously, it was a terrible pass. :lol

He was huge down the stretch. As I said before, that guy was a steal.

The Rockets have been the better team in this series in practically every game and have led for like 70% of the time, but it's the final 2 min of the game that keeps betraying them.

Tonight is no different. 3 different possessions to increase their lead from 2 to 4 or 5, and they can't get the buckets they need.

Man, I don't know if I've ever seen a series like this where one team just failed in crunch time so many times.

If the games were 46 min long, the Rockets would have win in a sweep.

But those last 2 min kept haunting this team on both ends of the floor. If it wasn't failing to get a clutch basket, it was a disaster in defense.

What a collapse by Houston.

Just finished watching the highlights of that Portland-Houston game looked like another instant classic.

What an epic defensive breakdown on the final play by the Rockets. James Harden should have should have switched off his man once he saw Lillard running free. He needs to really hit the tape and concentrate solely on his defense this summer. That was pathetic.

Not surprising that their shaky perimeter defense is the reason their season was ended.

Memphis Grizzlies....gone fishing.

Durant and Westbrook had their best game of the series by far.

They were flat out dominant.
