    Double Curry, don't switch.

    NO MORE ****ING POST UPS BY HOWARD, AUTOMATIC TURNOVERS.

    Get Ariza more involved, Harden keeps doing his thing, Smith keeps passing, Howard and Jones finish around the rim and we will be good. Especially with a nice dose of Capela and Brewer off the bench.

    ****ty way to end the quarter, blowing 15 point lead, but where only down by 3, and showed we can dominate when focused.

    Practically even to this point. Let's just bring some d and sweat in the second. Terry missing hurt. If he can hit those in the 3rd and 4th that will be key.

    Rockets have to do the things that got them here. Keep Dwight's post ups to a minimum. I think they are ok... up 16 points and they just let it get away again.. damn.

    Refs not calling crap for the Rockets. Harden got hit at least 3-4 other times and nothing. Loved when the ABC feed slowed down and you saw harden get hit two times and the ref right there didn't call anything, it was the guy behind the play who called it.

    Capela has defended Curry pretty well on switch. That was good D, just a crazy shot.

    Considering the swing in the quarter, at least we are still in it. We had crowd out of it for a while, looks like that's over

    The team constantly waved him off and told him not to call timeouts.

    I HATE when people complain about officiating usually, but that was AWFUL.

    I don't care about the refs. Even if they are gonna rig the game hard we have to fight and make it like the Lakers-Kings series in 2002. Everyone knows the series was rigged.

    Dwight has 5 of the Rockets 7 turnovers. Need to take care of the ball better in the 2nd half.

    I hope Curry swallows his mouthpiece and no one helps him

    The run happened when the rockets were too dumb to take advantage of GS's small lineup. Everything should have been at the rim, instead we got turnovers and perimeter isos

    If you think it's pathetic then fine, but it's not unreasonable to expect people paid huge amounts of money to do their jobs at an acceptable level.

    Warriors are NOT the better team, they just have the league and refs on their side PERIOD. Chicken Curry is the golden boy of the league. Little p***y

    Dan Crawford is far worse than Tony Brothers and Ken Mauer. We have a losing record with him officiating. Also, we better hope we don't get Derrick Stafford and Josh Tiven this series.

    Because the Rockets went for the bait. They tried to force it into Dwight in the post and that's not a high percentage play. Notice how Capela scores easily off of lobs and passes? Because he's playing the 2-man game with Harden.

    It sucks to blow that lead, but the Rockets were not gonna shoot around 60% all game or even the first half. If they can maintain their composure in the 2nd half and Harden can pick it up, they could steal this one. Especially if the Warriors are gassed from having to work so hard to recover from that deficit.
