    If you can't beat them, kill them.
    If you can't kill them, join them.
    If you can't join them, go home and cry.

    This implies that he actually tries to go through and/or around the screens. All I've seen him do is point to the GSW player for a switch that no one does or by the time they do switch its too late.

    So much disrespect by the national media SMH. Houston is the laughing stock of the playoffs yet. The Hornets got demolished the other day by miami but wer hear nothing about it.

    1on 1 and dunk contest should be the last things these guys are doing in practice. Howard taking jumpshots when he is throwing up airballs during games SMH

    If anyone still thinks lack of coaching or system is not a problem, this should be the nail in the coffin.

    New Years Eve game...the Rockets already did lose at home to the Curry-less Warriors (who were on the 2nd night of B2B after getting drubbed in Dallas on 12-30-15).

    The Hornets don't have two faux top 10 players and didn't make it to the conference finals last seaon. The Hornets are not falling tremendously short of expectations. The Rockets have last year's players choice MVP who came in out of shape, allegedly. The Hornets don't have Dwight Howard who wants his porridge just right and cannot find a team to stick with and give his all to. The Hornets didn't fire a basketball coach that was a legend as a player and greatly respected around the league 14 games into the season (I'm glad he's gone btw).

    I don't give a flying **** about what other teams don't get negative attention. Who cares. The Rockets bring this **** on themselves. They need to only worry about what they are doing and not be worried about how "unfware" they are being treated.

    Curry said based on how he feels now he probably can't play.

    Steph Curry said he still can't go full speed and couldn't play. But he's headed in right direction.

    Stephen Curry says he still has pain.
