    We need a backup center desperately.

    Capela could have grabbed that rebound. He had his arm.wrapped awkwardly around Valeciunueses (or however you spell it) arm and just did some weird squat. The ball hit the rim and went on Capela's side. Could have easily grabbed it. Just ridiculous. Needs to learn how to box out or eat his wheaties and put some meat on that bone. He keeps getting debo'd by other centers. Amazing game by Harden though.

    B2B and no Faried. Nene was awful. But I'm not too worried. The team just needs to be healthy come playoffs. It will be hard for any team to beat the Rockets in a series.

    Also, are we just going to ignore Harden's post defense.
    He was amazing.

    Despite all the strength he's built, Clint Capela still is too undersized to go against big centers like Valanciunas. He cost us this game.

    Why is that a problem going forward? The Warriors added Cousins and now brought back Bogut. They know exactly what they're doing.

    Our Plan B is an old, injured Nene and an actual undersized PF in Faried. Oh boy

    It doesn't matter who the opponent is, awful officiating is awful officiating. It was bad enough that Houston was on its second night of a back-to-back and Memphis had three days off, to overcome the refs' incompetence, as well? Infuriating.

    Clint hooked his arm around Val.

    Rox got away with some calls too including Harden hacking Val for a steal ok.

    Refs didnt decide this game the bonehead coach did.

    Why keep sticking with House and Clint they have proved ineffective, srick with the guys who worked this game namely Shump and Green. Nene only got 5 mins we dont even know if he could have done a good job inside. Why is EG not playing? Is it because of load balancing? If MDA load balanced on a b2b then thats just a stupid move.

    Yes, the refs were bad but that wasn't the reason we lost. Capela got whooped each time he defended JV. JV also killed us with 9 offensive revounds.

    P.s. **** Chandler

    This. That's what we get. We started 11-14 and now are going to at least be the 3rd seed? Sign me up.

    Parsons just said “we knew we could get whatever we want on the offensive end against them.” This guy had 11 points and his team didn’t even break 20 in the 4th. Idiot

    I'm really speechless. The only thought I have burning a hole in my mind right now is that I just feel so bad for James after that.

    Well.... Tucker is only 6ft 6, so he's not going to win many rebounds over a 6ft 8 plus power forward or 6ft 10 plus center anyway. Capela on the other hand should be able to box his man out and get the majority of his rebounds.

    Capela is way too soft for me. How many times does he get bullied in the paint? I'm not talking about that last play..... he was getting bullied and boxed out all night.
