It's like we went back in time to when the Clippers were the jokes of the league.

Chris Paul shoots the 3 at the buzzer!!

IT'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOD!!!!!!!!

wickedliquids · 05-15-2015, 12:27 AM

Wow.....found a TV and saw the last minute.....nice job Rockets!

eastbayak · 05-15-2015, 12:28 AM

Dang, I stopped watching the game cause I thought it was over a while ago. Seems like I missed an epic comeback

EMD34 · 05-15-2015, 12:28 AM

Well well well... game #@#@#@#@in 7 here we come

jj2 · 05-15-2015, 12:28 AM

Up by 20, get outscored 3-1 in the fourth. Steve Ballmer will be loosing his mind.

DUCKanay · 05-15-2015, 12:29 AM

Lol damn stinks to be a Clip fan

SDcardguy24 · 05-15-2015, 12:31 AM

wow what a comeback

hazenuts · 05-15-2015, 12:35 AM

minnesotachill · 05-15-2015, 12:38 AM

Best move of the game was leaving Harden on the bench.

thecomebacker · 05-15-2015, 12:38 AM

Wow, my head hurts right now. Jsmoove went off. Well, here we go, another game 7.

ninjacookies · 05-15-2015, 12:38 AM

It's not like the Rockets came back and barely squeaked out a victory either. They won by double digits. Don't think I've seen a 4th quarter comeback of that magnitude in the playoffs ever. They ripped the Clips heart out mortal combat x style.

Clippers versus Grizzlies was even better but yeah this was right there. I can't believe the clippers scored 12 in the 4th quarter. There was no ball movement and just a bunch of chucking. The 3s drop for the clippers when they pound the ball inside. This was embarassing!!!

brandonlec · 05-15-2015, 12:57 AM

HOLY CRAP!!

I don't want to hear another Rockets fan bitch or complain about Josh Smith ever again.

clipperboy24 · 05-15-2015, 12:57 AM

^^^. Btw I know technically they scored 15 but that 3 by paul at the buzzer was a joke

Lol...I was just happy to watch harden stir his little teacup kn the bench and not play ISO ball....as a rockets fan, that was refreshing to watch.

pennywise · 05-15-2015, 01:08 AM

Well. That was something. An awesome something. I'm happy for Josh Smith. So much has been made about his shortcomings in this league, and there was a feeling for awhile that nobody really wanted him on their team before he landed in Houston. This was a career moment for him. It's great to watch something like that. Loved his post-game follow up too. He showed a lot of maturity and restraint. No gloating at all. He's well aware there's still a game 7 to win. I've got a new found respect for him.

That 4th was just brutal for LA. I can't remember the last time I saw a 4th quarter comeback like that. Everyone on the floor for the Rockets was coming up big. The Clips had a MONUMENTAL collapse. Nobody wanted to take the shot. You've got to wonder about a team like that. I've got to say... as a Spurs fan, that game gave me great pleasure. Put it on 'em Rockets! Send 'em home in 7! I want to see Matt Barnes pout and kick the dirt all the way home.

BGT Masters · 05-15-2015, 01:14 AM

I'm not going to lie I tuned in after watching a rented movie in the third quarter, the game was close when I last looked during the movie. When I saw them getting blown out I think it was by 18 points I figured they were going to pack it in and quit like they did the other two blowouts. I figured I;d watch until the end of the 3rd and turn it off if they didn't make up ground and they started to make a comeback the last few minutes.

I really can;t believe what I saw in the fourth quarter. I still think the Clippers are the better team and will pull it out but I was proud of how the Rockets fought back. I definitely noticed it was with Harden on the bench. Its rough watching Howard choke missing all them late free throws though. If the Rockets win game 7 I have a feeling the Warriors will destroy them.

Vipertron · 05-15-2015, 01:19 AM

It's VEGAS!!! ALL!

tristan20 · 05-15-2015, 01:41 AM

I just don't think Paul has what it takes to get past that hump.

That was such a great game, especially with Harden on the bench and it was eating away at him.

currycurrycurry · 05-15-2015, 01:57 AM

James Harden gets benched in the 4th and his team drops 40 points in the 4th for the win... And all this time people kept saying the Rockets without Harden aren't good.. That theory goes out the window.

Because of 1 game?!?!? So Curry isn't that good, because the Warriors have won numerous times without him....

No one has ever said the Warriors without Curry aren't good; they've got a good team with a solid bench... However people have been saying that the Rockets can't win without Harden because they're not good. Apparently they were good enough to win this game.
