That's because there's a good chance they might face each other's in the first round! Man that would be a ridiculous 1st round matchup.

the first round of the western conference playoffs are gonna more exciting and competitive than the Finals.....

Rockets in a crazy tough battle right now with the Blazers...

Rockets down 11 or 12 at the start of the 4th - came back and tied it with 1:30 left...

Harden hit a 26 foot three pointer with 8 seconds left when they were down 106 to 103...

in overtime right now.....

What a win by the Rockets!!!

[Litos]

wow - what a fucking game.

down by 14 and then they take it into overtime on a sick cold blooded 3 pointer by Harden.

then the Rockets just dominate in overtime....

Harden with ANOTHER sick 3 pointer in overtime combined with Lin's 6 points sealed the deal...

great game....

Rockets with 44 fucking wins already - this week they've knocked off two teams that will be in the Finals (you know what I mean) and a Blazers team that's won 42 games...

[Litos]

Harden !!!!!!

[Litos]

[Litos]

Lin with ZERO turnovers & 26 pts!!!!! WTFFFFFFF

These are the games you have to win to be contenders. Not the ones in which everything is going right, but when everything is going wrong and they still somehow grind their way through it - great game...

if he plays even close to this for the remainder of the season coming off the bench, we are going to be playing for the Western Finals spot....

[Litos]

this game had everything:

Bad officiating.
Big lead to overcome.
More bad officiating.
HUGE game by Harden.
Take the lead with 1:20 left.
Harden HUGE 3 to tie game.
HUGE steal with 7 seconds left.
Bev BARELY missing desperation heave.
Lillard and Beverly foul out.
Parsons, Harden play almost a quarter with 5 fouls.
Jeremy Lin comes outta nowhere. WELCOME BACK!
Portland misses 4 3's in final possession to seal our win!

This is what I see too. The elite teams in the east (Pacers and Heat) are going to have a cake walk through the playoffs until they face each other in the Conference Finals, probably well rested, just stomping on teams like the Nets and Raptors all the way through.

In the West, every team is at risk of a long, competitive series in every round. So I worry whoever gets to the finals from the West will be so battered and worn down by the time they get to the finals, the team from the East will have a huge advantage in just being healthy.

it's been said around Rockets inner circles that this team has the best chemistry for any Rockets team in the last 2 decades....

and believe it or not, some people are even attributing that to Dwight's easy going and positive approach on life.....

this is a team hugging Lin after Lin basically broke out of his slump...

team officials are saying that his back feels as good as it did during the All-Star break.

a healthy Lin coming off the bench is what we will need to go deep in the playoffs......

I agree, the chemistry is great, I'm a bit shocked to be honest, when Dwight started there I thought it was a recipe for disaster but they've been meshing really well it seems and though I'm a hardcore warriors fan I gotta root for the rockets since not only did Jeremy lin pretty much grow up down the street from me, is my age, and also went to a rival high school lol

You may not want to get too friendly, the West just underwent another shift with Portland and Phoenix going down, and the Clippers being on a 7 game win streak. Phoenix is now out of the playoffs. Lob City is now paired with Portland, and Rockets and Warriors are now a 1st round matchup. Man what a shoot out that would be.

the first round match-ups will change 15 times until the end of the seaon, so I wouldn't place any bets on any teams meeting up in the first round......

first round playoff matchups will be determined on the final games on the season, watch....

Yeah the West is tight, so these last games are going to be crucial, and no team in the Top 8 can think of relaxing or resting their starters without risk of losing home court, or dropping a seed.

Great game for Lin & the Rockets & a GREAT photo!

Lob City extends win streak to 8 and Suns are further out of the playoffs.
