    League told JB to turn it down at halftime. You'll see this happen to everyone that plays GSW from now on.

    Just like I said last year, these guys absolutely need a team psychologist 24/7. Their brain must have something wrong since they are fighters in the 1st half and puppets in the second. Man, down by 8 with 20 minutes to go and they think the game is over? Unacceptable!

    yeah, i didn't want to make the playoffs and this was exactly why. any other team than the warriors and you probably don't get embarrassed. but they're ultra-elite offense with our complete lack of attention to detail and lack of effort were going to be a disaster. and now they've just made us look bad when we could have just gone to the offseason and kept our pick.

    Howard: "The only way we can overcome it is if we believe in each other, don’t quit on each other. We have to put aside egos and pride and play for each other."

    :grin: Last time you'll be able to break that out Dwight with this team!

    That quote could easily be from any loss we've had since he's been here lol.

    Why doesn't Harden ever come to the podium especially after losses?

    When the Rockets look for Dwight...he plays hard...When they dont...he disappears. I just wish that he would just demand excellence. Wish that he leads by example. He does NOTHING of the sort. When the Rockets needed a leader, they HAVE none...Like the bravado Howard...now go out there and dominate.

    it seemingly wouldn't make much sense for howard to opt in. if he thinks he can get a max, he should get it for 4 or 5 years. if he thinks that everyone else thinks he's declining, then he probably doesn't want to wait a year to go for a big contract when everyone thinks he's worse.

    Exactly go out and back it up Howard. No pouting and really swallowed your pride. I can't wait to see what Rockets team shows up on Wednesday. The first half team of today's game or the Second half team of today's game?

    IF he does Morey will either trade him or waive him I am guessing.

    This has been a season long issue. There is NO "team". They are just a conglomerate of brick throwers, who occasionally make shots.

    Very real possibility he is going to opt in.

    I got NHL playoff tickets for the Minnesota Wild versus the Dallas Stars. I was disappointed that that game was the same time as the Rox vs Warriors. Now I'm glad I didnt' see the Rox game..
