Can you remember a colder 4th qtr in the playoffs than what the Clips threw out there tonight?

[phattymatty]

People have made fun of me in the past for loving Corey Brewers games but dude is clutch.

That 4th was straight garbage though.

Clips still win 7 cuz Howard is a huge bitch.

[PhillyPhreak54]

Dude at work today said Brewer would have a big game too

A Warriors and Rockets wc final would be cool

[Don Ho]

Can you remember a colder 4th qtr in the playoffs than what the Clips threw out there tonight?

Missed 15 of last 16 shots!  Unbelievable.  Harden on the bench for most of this comeback.

Rockets pull off historic comeback

The Rockets rallied from a 19-point third-quarter deficit to stay alive with a 119-107 Game Six win over the Clippers at Staples Center. It was Houston's largest comeback win in the playoffs since Game One of the 1995 Finals at Orlando. In that game, the Magic's Nick Anderson was 0-for-4 from the free-throw line in the last 10.5 seconds of the fourth quarter and the defending champion Rockets pulled out a 120-118 overtime victory after trailing by 20 points.

No team had staved off playoff elimination with that large a comeback since the Mavericks, also down 19, stormed back to take a 103-91 win at San Antonio in Game Five of the 2003 Western Conference Finals. The Spurs won at Dallas two days later to take the series and went on to defeat the Nets in the Finals.

Houston trailed 92-79 after three quarters. It was the Rockets' first playoff win (out of 50 tries) in which it trailed by 10+ points entering the fourth quarter. Only one other team had ever won a playoff game by more than 10 points after trailing by double digits through three quarters. That was the Spurs, at Dallas in Game Six of the 2003 Western Conference Finals (the game after San Antonio blew the 19-point lead with a chance to close out the Mavs). The Spurs 12 years ago, like the Rockets in 2015, trailed by 12 points entering the fourth quarter and won by 13.

Howard comes up big in big game

Dwight Howard scored 20 points and gathered 21 rebounds as the Rockets survived Game 6 in Los Angeles. It was the first 20-point/20-rebound game in the playoffs in four years, since the Grizzlies' Marc Gasol put up 26 points and 21 rebounds against the Thunder. And it was the first 20/20 game in a win by a player facing playoff elimination since Howard himself, exactly six years earlier (23 points, 22 rebounds vs. Boston on May 14, 2009).
