    you mean the 37 yr old chandler ??? what do you think is going to happen when other teams put him in the pick n roll constantly ?

    you guys need to realize our personnel is the main problem.

    Nailed it ! They are sooooo garbage on D it’s truly horrid to watch ! No expectations of a championship run with this roster and the lame duck coach who doesn’t seem to care any longer

    This team is just not very good........... when we play the best teams in the league I’m afraid we gonna get blown off the floor with this defense........ we making the pelicans and the wizards look like world beaters....... what you think the Clippers and Lakers gonna do.......... losing Bzedelik was the worse thing to happen to this team because Dantoni can’t coach defense to save his life....... we will get beat once again in the playoffs and be then laughing stock of the league with this brand of basketball

    I don't even know how to tweak this system because I honestly don't know what it is. So I'd scrap whatever the hell the scheme is now and fight over all screens. I'd run mostly man defenses and try to trap good ball handlers in the corners when able. I'd also use some zone but sparingly.

    Usually a contending team doesn't give up 150+ to a bad team

    At this point, I feel like just about any replacement would be better than 'Antoni. And yes I am, unfortunately (somewhat) serious about McFail. That's how disgusted I am with 'Antoni's "coaching".

    Harden best player in he world when he is rolling like tonight

    Russ big and one at the end and got his triple double

    Clint is soft as they come. The guy can occasionally get a nice block but some scrub named Bryant was out hustling him .

    fighting through screens doesnt work against good passing teams. its so easy to pick guys apart when you can constantly get a step on guys.

    this team isnt athletic, or have enough length to recover up front. you guys are blaming the coach when you should be blaming the front office.

    Harden-Russ makes for an insane offense.

    Will Ferrita invest in upgrading the defense?

    Thomas Bryant is actually pretty good though. He would be better than capela on this team

    The Rockets should not have won tonight. The Astros must suffer the karmic consequences of this ridiculous game.
