    Utah fans on the brink of a sweep booing Harden everytime he touches the ball is hilarious, cuz they still have nightmares of him dropping a 60 burger & lighting up their entire team... trash all around.

    the key here is finding ways to score against their defense. they were very consistent on that end in the first half. even though we won the second quarter we only scored 23 points.

    we're gonna have to play amazing defense to win if we can't score 25 in any quarter tonight. it will be easier to find a way to score 30 in a quarter.

    maybe a few more minutes without a center to take Gobert out of the paint?

    Yeah, they can't do the defense like that, I doubt they will try. If they do, that'll be awesome

    He's been soft as **** in the last 2 games. It's like he's scared of Gobert. People want to have a go at Harden, but Capela is offering him no movement in the paint. The first 2 games he had it right with his movement, but he's been awful at getting open the last 2 games.

    This is why I don't consider Capela a top 5 center. He's just not consistent enough. And he seriously gets bullied by the better defensive centers.

    5 out is good is we can make our 3's, because we are for sure giving up 2's on the other side with zero rim protection.

    Refs didnt cause ÇP3's leg to get hurt. Are the refs able to predict that Cp3 will get hurt so they allow the Rox to win 3 games before that?

    Of course I believe the NBA isnt rigged, why would I watch a rig game? If you believe the NBA is rigged then why are you still watching? And why are you complaining? Its like complaining the Rock lost to the Undertaker in WWE, if its rigged it shouldnt matter to you.

    Clint went up without securing the ball because he was so eager to put it up.. Hold the ball and dunk it.

    Bench has 2 points, someone of them needs to get hot. House is 5/20 in this series so far. He won't get paid if not be able to knock down shots in meaningful time/game.

    Yeah, if they don’t take Gobert out when we go small they will continue to give the Rockets wide open 3s. It worked like a charm late 2Q.
