    it was not entirely on him but when you are the best player on the floor that comes with a lot of responsibility which includes playing smart

    Harden intenionally tanked the 2nd half of this game. I predicted it

    the only thing i was off on, was the rockets only scoring 33 in the 2nd half. PJ Tucker accidently made the first ft with less than 2 miinutes left in the 4th quarter and missed the 2nd( PJ was supposed to miss both). wouldn't shock me if PJ gets a "fake" injury coming up here soon

    nah, no way to defend that pathetic 3Q sequence. His 4Q disappearance was just icing on the cake.

    and Harden getting screwed over by shady calls by the ref? yeah, I'm sure people will feel SO SORRY for Harden. Give me a break.

    Well, Morey probably would be willing to trade our role players for George. But what makes you think OKC would be willing to make a trade? Ariza is an expiring contract just like George. OKC doesn't want Anderson. And Tucker is nothing special. Why would OKC just give us George for any of those guys. You are upset that Morey hasn't done a trade that OKC won't agree to?

    Who cares

    This is the regular season and they LOST like they were supposed to

    I am calling for 10 game losing streak.

    So what

    If, big if, all the players are healthy they have a chance in playoff.

    If not, meet the Texans of the NBA.

    But yeah losing 26 point lead is embarrassing

    It happens when your best staplizing play is out.

    When they are out 3 rotational players they will lose most nights.

    Don't compare to Warriors please, they are deep and Rockets are not

    Yes I gave up, Einstein. I was right too. The momentum switch was a little more than obvious. Also, blame the refs all you want but we lost because of Harden pissing the game away in embarrassing fashion. It was a loss and it was obvious before we lost the lead, yes.

    What are you talking about? The Houston Rockets never refused to deal Gordon or Ariza for Paul George. Tucker was a free agent at the time.

    Indiana wanted the package from OKC. Everyone thought it was a bad package but it has worked well for Indy so far.

    Ok at 98-95 Boston inbounds to Smart.... now I thought the camera was moving but it was actually Smart traveling...... and it was blatant too..... that shot at that point should not have even happened..... then 2 offensive fouls preceded that.....

    Don't tell me there's nothing there....
