    Goddamnit, that's a missed opportunity - the one that got away.

    Going to have to do it the hard way. Clutch City wasn't born from doing things easy. Regroup, get the W at TC and take it in 7.

    I STILL BELIEVE

    Capaela was all but spoon fed, but glad to see he made the shot. #GoodJob

    Man.. Just when I put faith in Harden he chokes it.. No one could hold him this whole series and he stopped shooting when KD went down.. I'm so disappointed my body can't take it.

    It won't be easy. we'll see the warriors go back to more team ball than the durant heavy offense. Missed opportunity for sure.

    good point. We will get them on Friday. this is shades of of last year. We won last years at game 5 and then Cp3 got hurt and then they won the last 2. Its our turn this year 2in a row we will win

    No excuses, not even for Harden. If you're the MVP, you take this home. The media can call Harden out on this one, no will to win, choke artist. Our whole team, except for Tucker, Nene and Shumpert deserve to be shat on. Gordon made up for his first half a bit, but that's it. MDA with some odd coaching, making late adjustment to insert size for rebounding and we just continued to walk it up with little time left and I saw no will to win at all. After KD went down, we should've taken it to them. We had them in foul trouble too. Just inexcusable.

    I'm soo upset angry and filled with rage............. Wtf????????????????? As soon as KD went down they should have stepped up the intensity and finished them off. This was an opportunity laying there to be taken and these losers pissed on it. I had more intensity than the team I'm rooting for. As soon as KD went down I said Oh ****!!!!! Let step on their throats before they can get back on track....should have known.....rockets acted like KD was playing for them.Piss poor all around. Rockets suck ass!

    Why oh why did Capela get so much burn and why did Harden not take over?

    MDA: “I don’t have to tell them, they know what they need to do”

    I mean if you foul here, without some misses, you need to make three 3s to close out. Or you can go all out, try to get the turnover (which was so close), and you have the ball, down three, with a timeout. I like the decision, still gutted by the outcome. Lets get 6 and 7.

    Team deserved to lose. Capela has been a ghost, no defensive rebounding, and missed the opportunity to win w/ no Durant/Green with 1 minute left.
