    Refs decided the game, now they give Rockets some calls so total # fouls don't look so lopsided at the end of game boxscore.

    Typical Rockets type of game that’s gonna show up in the playoffs AGAIN. Uninspiring and inefficient 40 from Harden, spam a bunch of 3’s even when they’re not falling, garbage play from bench, things falling apart when close calls don’t go our way and Harden disappearing in the 4th.

    This is a poorly coached team.

    It wins games because of an elite player.

    The insane calls and non calls are killing the Rockets

    The Rockets have to be PERFECT . . . . in spite of not getitng any calls
    Harden has been hacked in the lane and gotten nothing

    It can be so frustrating to watch Mike D not bail his team out when they clearly need to call a timeout in a critical possession. James was trapped and could not get the ball to anyone besides Clint. Does Mike really believe giving the ball to Clint at the paint is a wise?

    Wake the **** up you old fool lol.

    James Harden might be the hardest to guard 1 vs 1 but if he is refusing to shoot an open mid-range for contested step backs over and over and over Houston instantly becomes the easiest team to guard.

    I would love to play the Rockets in the post season if I were any of the teams.

    Every time it’s so amazing to see so many ‘Lin fans’ here bashing Harden during the whole game,

    but once the game ended, they immediately change back to Harden fan boys and calling others who criticizing Harden being a Lin fan.

    The irony.

    That's such an accurate description of the entire MDA playbook that I wonder if he didn't decide how to coach this from a fortune cookie.

    I was joking the other day when I said the Thunder will ironically pass us in playoff seeding but with the way we've been playing lately, it might really happen.

    Anybody else getting tired of our offense?

    Trash players also a not a factor on defense.
