    Shooting 20% from 3 is going to be a loss for this team every single game.

    They have no plans to be anything more than mediocre on defense.

    This is not a secret.

    you can look at the team and tell they still don't care about defense at all.

    gonnabe a long season if they can't consistently play solid defense.

    Just one game my ass! This one game said a lot. They should have beat the Cakers handily.

    Howard wasn't the cancer

    I'm not understanding the surprised reactions about the subpar defense. We knew that's who we were, yes? The primary issue (as I see it) is that we were supposed to be elite offensively to offset that expected deficiency. The offense looked like last year's for much of the second half -- no way we will win games that way.

    When I saw Mozgov imposing his will on us in the first quarter, I knew this would be a long season.

    Just lol.

    Good old Rockets.

    You can look at THE COACH and saw that we don't care about defense.

    Agreed, and upgraded because it's been subpar 60+ years for HOU.


    Any season with D'Antoni coaching will be a wasted season, champ-wise.

    Any season with McNair owning is wasted, champ-wise.

    Any GOOD season with Hinch managing will be despite him.

    You have a big confirmation bias man, you are sitting here one game in from the Howard departure (And Howard hasn't even played yet) and making a proclamation multiple times that Howard wasn't the issue and all of your posts are Harden this and Harden that.

    Harden was far from the problem tonight. Harden is the only reason we are in these games.

    We are the Texas Tech of the NBA. Just wait until we play a team that can play on both sides of the ball - it will be ugly.

    Capela looked like he got hurt half way down the 3rd quarter. He looked like he tried to walk it off but was obviously limping.. Also, he didn't close out line he normally does. Something has to be wrong.

    Confusing post. They looked far, FAR better than last year.
