    I can't believe a Mike Dantoni team is so afraid of open shots. He probably can't either.

    People blame him but the coaches job is to generate open shots for his players. The players job is to hit the shots. The GMs job is to get those players. The owners job is to put his family on murals.

    It's really frustrating being a Rockets fan. Rockets lose the most embarrassing games. You have to go into hiding.

    The short rotations are so irritating. Rivers has missed so many easy layups, my god.

    Play so poorly the refs feel bad for you and try to help you out .... then we start hitting threes

    Hard to drive in the lane for shots
    when you get fouled everytime with no call

    Rivers was just fouled
    When you are fouled. . you missed shots
    We have missed so many shots with little shoves and slaps with no call
    This is why we less than 50% at the rim

    We need to go on a layup drill tomorrow. The amount of missing layups tonight is ridiculous!

    Tucker is really losing his luster for me recently. I love Tuck as a person and as a hustler, but you can't be this afraid of shooting in the modern NBA in a lineup with Westbrook and Capela.

    Morey and Harden probably going to call out the refs again publicly after this game which will result in more prejudice against us in future games.
