    The only 3 point philosophy is a result of all the one-trick ponies on the roster. All guys like Tucker, House, McLemore can do consistently is launch 3 pointers.

    Rockets can't consistently make shots. House is worthless. If you are going to be a "bombs away" team you have to shoot a decent percentage. Rockets are going nowhere at present.

    He's not the only problem, but Harden is a problem

    I’m pulling a dantoni and checking out. I’m done until changes are made. It’s no longer fun watching this team play.

    What is Harden thinking? He takes his dumb ass headband off every game to give him extra juice. He needs to go back to the tried and true. This haircut/headband and MDA ruining the season.

    I'm tired of "the most efficient shot". Just take the f*&$ing shot that you can make. Miss a mid range shot and I'd be fine with it. Quit taking volume threes in hopes of making the averages. Just sickening.

    Exactly like Mark said something is wrong
    You can see it. How many times have you seen Harden not trying to shoot the ball even if we were down by 10. He passed the ball and didn’t call it back all game long.

    this team is headed to the 8 seed or out of the playoffs if they keep playing like this. Also if we can’t trade or move from death weight like House. He is getting minute and is not doing anything at all. He is reducing the spacing for Harden and Russ. We can’t Have Pj Gordon and Ben shooting this bad and still have house there doing even less.


    we have Nene which I liked a lot but he isn’t with the team. We have Green who supposedly will be back but we need to cut him and maybe bring him back later or next season. Is not like this season he will help much. We need to trade Thabo because he can’t defend anymore
    We need to move from Gordon he just isn’t cutting it anymore.


    we need guys to help Harden that’s what we need. Russ is playing better but we have no bench no one besides Harden and Russ can create on their own.
    And wish we could have had McGee or someone that could go hard for dunks and not soft like Capela. Only time he goes Hard is when he is alone

    our city is the epitome of bandwagon

    disgusting. pathetic home crowd display

    this team is a 4 to 6 seed at best

    our city sports are the joke of professional sports

    we ask why we get picked on in the media, because we deserve it

    Honestly, i think you can be the best defensive coach in the world, but if 3 of your players on the court are Westbrook, Harden and McLemore, you just can't have a good defense.

    He's not even a top 3 problem but yes, there is plenty of blame to go around.

    Keep Russ and Harden and trade everyone else. we need to rearrange our roster if we want to have a chance to be competitive this season!

    Meh, not shocked. Lakers are better. Rockets playing like ass lately.

    But if this loss is a really big deal to you, feel free to join my (and @B-Bob 's) hashtag #BlowItUp2020
