    Jazz getting their revenge and half the board melts down complaining that Harden is to blame for the loss because he didn’t drop 60.... that Westbrook sure does play hard.... that the Rockets are DOOMED... that Morey and MDA need to be banished from the NBA.... and of course fchowd0311 will make some comment about the lack of conditioning of Harden or that he brushed his teeth the wrong direction so he is an overrated fatty.

    Prove me wrong clutchfans.

    Can't lose this game. Defense and rebounding effort can't be anywhere close to what it was against Phoenix.

    Rockets can WIN the Tie Breaker with Utah with this game. Utah is RIGHT THERE in the standings.

    Probably the biggest game of the year considering the STAKES.

    And then there is the EG situation.

    I say we sit Russ and Harden again and let Ego go for 60 or ... oh wait that’s right, forgot Ego is hurt AGAIN!!! Need this one badly, but after stealing the last one from them I’m not feeling very confident...

    Get Gobert to switch onto Harden. Pass the ball to Westbrook and then let him go to work with Gobert needing to stick to Harden on the perimeter.

    Can’t have fun with a bruise. EG is fragile mentally and physically.

    If we win these next 2 games against Utah and Boston with this small ball roster, then it will give me more hope for a smithering of a chance to win in a playoff series. We only have two times left playing two good teams in a row after UTA and BOS. Next is Mar 23 & 25th (DAL & MIL), and Apr 5 & 7th (TOR & DAL).

    haven't you heard, tilman authorized morey without any restrictions to go over the taxline to make the team better. morey used our first round pick in a salary dump because he wanted to, because that's just how he rolls. tilman is an innocent man, unfairly maligned by keyboard tyrants. he's probably pissed off at the chopper dealership right this moment because he actually didn't want the ultra luxury alcantera option, but now he has to opt for it anyways because all this extra $$$$$$$ is burning a chernobyl 4th reactor like hole in his pocket.
