Houston leads the Western Conference Finals 3-2 after winning Game 5 tonight by a score of 98-94. They are now one game away from advancing to the NBA finals. Golden State hosts Game 6 Saturday night.

The Rockets were lead by Eric Gordon with 24 points. Chris Paul scored 20 points with his 7 rebounds and 6 assists. Capela had 12 points with his 14 boards and Harden added 19 points.

Will the Warriors make another amazing comeback or is this the year for the Rockets to win the West?

Cryptobols is right that winning tonight will be very difficult without Chris Paul. Maybe Harden will take over without him. Even if the Rockets don't win tonight, I still like their chances to pull it off in 7.

Houston was in an excellent position to make the finals. The Chris Paul injury is the only reason they did not advance past the Warriors.

Great win last night but losing Chris Paul for game 6 is definitely a problem. I can see this one going to game 7...

I am so happy, I think that the rockets are going to win the series in 6
