    CP3 scores 20 pts in the 4th Q and 41 pts in total to propel the Rockets into the WC finals. The first time he's played in a Conference final in his career.

    I'd really like the Rockets to win it all.

    I don't know why but I just don't really like James Harden

      Me either but I do like CP3.

      I don't like seeing the same teams win every year, and I'd love to see Green whinge and moan again.

        I dislike Green as well so I'm kind of OK with that

          @canefan no one seems to like any of the NBA superstars. Look through this thread, and every time one of the really big names is brought up, almost instantly someone will pipe up with "i really can't stand ..."

          I like Harden, he's a magnificent, bearded bastard who makes offense look insanely easy. And he looks at opponents with disdain that they are even daring to be on the same court as him.

            Yeah I don't mind Houston, though I'm now cheering for Golden State. I like dynasties, and their players are pretty likeable (with one exception).

            For some reason the only superstar I can't stand is Westbrook.

              The Houston-NY final from 1994 was one of the best final series. Great to see The Dream in the crowd today.

                Green may be a bit of a shit, but he's pretty useful.

                  He's definitely a guy you love if he's in your team and hate if not

                    Harden is amazing on offense but is fuck he a shit defender. He is fun to watch though. Not sure i like him or dislike him.

                      I dont mind most of the stars tried to dislike lebron back in the day but hes boss. Westbrook is a beast at times but niggly and melo just annoys me. Makes it hard as i follow OKC as long as adams is there. Green is basketballs gregan (not as great though) but you want him on your team.

                      KD i dont hate but dont support wish he didnt jump to golden state. Unbelievable athlete.

                        Never been a Harden fan. Couldn’t stand him even when he was a Sun Devil. He can play offence no doubt and D’Antoni’s system is made for his game.

                        My like for CP3 has been up and down over the years.

                        Capella is a gun. That boy is going to get paid big time soon.

                        The big thing for the Rockets will be defending Steph and Klay. Whereas the Warriors will run a good diet of Klay, Livingston and even Iggy at Harden. Steph has usually played CP3 pretty well over the years.

                            @magpie_in_aus Yep very cool. Was a shame he couldn't stay in Toronto and stay injury free.

                            Meanwhile Celtics just destroyed the Cavs in Game 1 of the ECF.

                            Somehow Celtics coach didn't get 1 vote from his peers for coach of the year - the dude is the best coach in the league.

                              He doesn't strike me as the type of guy who cares. Very humble, super smart and his players would run through a wall for him

                                  If they win game 2 the alarm bells might start ringing quietly in CLE

                                    Right on cue the GSW bid the rockets a welcome to the conference finals by taking home court advantage in game 1

                                      This whole season was fun, but one wonders if GSW might just stand up and show their class, and in turn giving a big middle finger to the Sixers/Raptors/Rockets/Thunder/Cavs/Celtics/anyone who dared to dream in 2017/18.

                                        Not really close on paper. They will flick the switch now and it will be lights out for Houston in 5 or 6 games

                                          The game today was ridiculous. I only caught the first half but it made every other play-off game look like the NBL.

                                          Big players making big plays, over and over again.

                                          I fear the Finals will be a let-down compared to this series.
