    Harden continues to attack Gobert the wrong way. He's attacking the floater, so go into into his damn body.

    You know they're expressly directed NOT to take mid-range shots, right? Harden could do it if he wanted and Gordon can get away with it on occasion but the rest of those guys have no business taking mid range shots. It's low efficiency and they aren't good at it.

    Refs trying to extend the series. MDA had good cause to call him the c-word like that.

    It's so damn idiotic to not take any midrange shots.. it just doesn't work against elite defensive teams. yeah good luck with the floaters with Gobert guarding at the rim

    Predicting it now:

    Rockets will right the ship and at least make this game competitive if not close the series out. Y'all are just overreacting to the last flails of a dying team. We ain't getting blown out.

    I'd say everyone (outside of PJ and Gordon maybe) needs to play better, Chris made a couple of bad passes and nothing else, Capela is sleeping out there, not sure what's going on with his eyes but he doesn't look at his best.

    Officiating has been terrible. Seems like we haven't gotten it going yet. Still early.

    Maybe harden should pump fake to just Gobert in the air?

    D’Antoni is seriously a clown. Running a purely high screen based offense with this much talent.

    Harden should have some wrinkles in the post or something.


    Throw some movement and deception off the catch.

    The Houston Hardens.

    Harden is obviously being targeted by the refs like Tim donaghy predicted 2 months and instead of defending our mob caliber superstar we destroy him

    Rockets are clearly out of sync. Capela is in la la land. What's with him? We need Faried on the floor.

    Refs aren’t the reason for us not giving a damn on defense.
