    Rockets need to shoot less threes. Look at Bucks. They won by getting easier looks in the paint while Houston looked like Game 7 vs Warriors. Brick brick brick brick. Houston will never win that way. They don't have Curry and Thompson. Need to find ways to get easy baskets.

    You're absolutely right. But Bud comes from a winning culture. All Mike has ever done is lose.

    REALLY liked Chandler's play ! It's a crying shame that he wasn't playing at the end. MDA is absolutely clueless...how many times can you watch Lopez backing down EGO and Tucker and not make a move ? Just unreal.

    That's were the "offensive guru" head coach needs to draw something up to get his star players going. Clearly Bud had a game plan when Giannis went out. What is Mike's game plan?

    Refs don’t screw us on Harden’s phony offensive fouls we win!!
    It’s clear zebras didn’t want us to win this game.
    Relax we had some cold shooters trust me those missed shots will start going in.
    Love what I saw out of Westbrook dude is a stud!!

    Bud got his ass out coached last year in the ECF and with the Hawks before that, hes great but lets not act like he doesnt have his faults, as well hes had as much sucess as a head coach as Dantoni.

    Gordon with 4/19.

    Why Gordon shooting the most when you have Harden and WB?

    The answer for replacing D’Antoni isn’t on the Rockets’ bench. Who is currently unemployed and capable of leading the Rockets to a championship this season? Such a move should have been made in the offseason.

    Thanks Rockets! Already was in a shitty mood over the Astros. Thought maybe you can help alleviate that. Absolutely brutal three day stretch in Houston sports.

    Dantoni benches guys like House and Chandler when they're playing well and sticks with guys like Gordon when it's clear he doesn't have it tonight. Unreal.

    Dantoni has to trust House more. I get he doesn't like playing young guys, but these are the games that's gonna get him more prepared for the playoffs.

    Only 1 out of 3?

    Hey, it's early and I need to develop more chemistry with myself.

    The Rockets lost because of Westbrook's hairdo. Doesn't get more goofy and totally awful than that.

    The issue is the same coaching problems persist.

    He's been a coach for 7 years now. And hes had his playoff issues as well. Those guys cop our shot selection, Mike wasnt great tonight but I lets see if he'll adjust, despite what everyone thinks, hes not a guy who continually goes to something that doesnt work.
