... and the Houston Rockets' bench still looked like they were going to lose Game 3 to the Golden State Warriors on Thursday night.
Clint Capela, bless his heart, got excited like Harden had hit a game-winner (which, it turned out, he did.) But Dwight Howard, Corey Brewer and company appeared convinced that defeat was inevitable.
when you find out you have to play 5 games against the warriors instead of 4 https://t.co/NzWWm2usKC

Or just bummed that their vacation plans got pushed back.
NBA on TNT analyst Charles Barkley was so convinced the Rockets would choke away their halftime lead, he GUARANTEED it.

But then Draymond Green dribbled the ball off his foot at the end, and the Rockets finally could exhale. Or start rescheduling that trip to Cancun.
