    Ever since we sewed up the number 1 seed D'Antoni has been warning the team no to get complacent. hopefully today wakes them up and they come out steaming on Friday

    And his turnovers are so bad. Honestly so far he has been a major flop in the playoffs. Clint and Harden have been great but Paul has been ok.

    not even close. A coach can only do so much, he sets up the plans and the players are expected to carry them out.

    i reckon he thought that Harden was going to carry him to a Championship without him having to do as much work as he has done in the past. Watch Paul turn it on in game three as he will be fired up to turn things around

    Yeah, talking to the players is key, not going in front of the media and complain how the team looks after every loss.

    Our backs are not against the wall, at least not yet. However, the Jazz just stole what the Rockets worked so hard for a whole season, home court advantage.

    The Rockets MUST win at least one of the games up there.

    Lackadaisical days are over if you are concerned since there is very little margin for error.

    pretty sure he said the same thing to the players. We don't get access to see in the changerooms and what he says, but i can guess he said the same thing to them

    Rockets have been put on notice...come out all nonchalant again and it’s gonna be a 2-1 deficit

    make the necessary adjustments, come out with fire and intensity, and handle business

    CP3, we’ve gotta get a big game from u...he has not been impressive for most of these playoffs

    Gordon needs to play smarter and actually be efficient for once

    Harden and Clint just needs to keep doing what they’ve been doing so far in this series
