    Who cares... I thought we played well. It was a good game that could have gone either way.

    Rockets have an issue with hitting wide open shots.

    missing wide open corner threes is baffling.

    Rivers should have been left in and the refs should be locked up.

    Westbrook was horrid.

    turnovers
    Bad shot selection
    Bricking free throws

    if he had a good game we would have won.

    Just like the CJ offensive foul challenge where he was hit prior to charging into Westbrook, MDA really pooped the bed for not challenging Harden's 5th. There was a Dame offensive push off prior to Harden swiping.

    Westbrook’s shot selection and missed free throws killed the Rockets tonight. When you combine that with the refs taking Harden out of the game, it’s not surprising the Rockets lost.

    Too many missed fts and open shots. D’Antoni forgot how to use his challenge. Clearly should have used on that 5th foul on harden

    This is the blueprint to beat us.

    let everyone but Harden take open 3’s because our shooters suck minus McLemore

    Harden gotta hit one of those 3s. Especially the one that was wide open.

    Harden was terrible in the last 90 seconds just jacking up shots. We were in the penalty he could have driven the basket easily.
