    And let’s be honest, Clint is not Clint. He’s legit sick and it’s showing imo. Also Faried was a zero.

    If the Rockets don’t have that inside game working, it’s going to be difficult to win being pretty much one dimensional.

    Agree that it’s a road game against a very capable team. It’s one win. Time to take care of business at home. Rockets lose game 5 and then there is some cause for concern.

    He couldn't, though, because he isn't a good midrange shooter. KD, Klay, Curry are all elite mid range shooters, that's their game. Harden is not, and he never has been.

    when you say midrange how many feet from the basket are you talking about from what to what?

    Yeah it seems like this is a real issue. However, having CP3 during that 0-27 stretch against GS would have been nice to mix in some midrange points. I thought Chris did a great job yesterday late in the 4th. The Rockets just ran out of gas and succumbed to a late run.

    I really hope the Rockets come out strong and bury the Jazz right away. We don’t want to be in a dog fight against a defense like that.
