Wow, Kawhi is out for Game 6 in Houston. Simple guess here would be that this one is going 7. Hopefully Kawhi will be back for that one.

Makes more sense to let him rest now in a game that would be tough to win with a gimpy Leonard and allow him time to rest and get ready for game 7 and possibly more against the Warriors.

The Spurs won Game 5 with LMA, Manu, Mills, Green and Simmons playing the OT. Don't count them out.

Spurs look great, up 25-16 near the end of the 1st. Simmons playing well in Kawhi's absence, and LaMarcus Aldridge already has double-digit points.

Simmons in the 4th quarter n OT last game and now tonight has been very good. Guess it should not be surprising Spurs have another random guy do their next man up thing

How about the Beard , this disappearing act takes me all the way back to how he played in the finals

Wow. That was a humiliation. At home. Against a team missing one of the best players in the league.

That is a team of nobodies, its unbelievable. Pau is washed up, LMA has looked washed up, everyone else seems replaceable, just unreal how good Pop is.

I think the end of game 5 and game 6 clearly show that Leonard is just holding the Spurs back. Just look and how good their defense is without him, the Rockets scored 9 (NINE) two point shots in the entire game!

Dejounte Murray with a huge game, along with the contributions from LMA and Gasol.

Rockets basically quit last night after the disappointment of losing the OT game. It reminded me of how the Suns just lost heart after we lost a close game minus Amare and Boris in 07.
