    Melo guards air between the post and 3 point line. He's completely clueless and doesnt commit to a body. Thats why the switch doesnt work because somehow someone is open for a 3 or a dunk. And Ennis is worse, everybody blows by him

    Yea, he's watching the ball most of the time and loses his man within 0.1 sec of turning the back to our own basket.

    we should replace that "runitback" slogan with "enough is enough!"

    people are so quick to dismiss anything rockets do...last year when we were killing it in regular season everybody was dismissing it saying 'its only rs, playoffs is where the real games are, these are only meaningless games'

    An engaged harden is one of our better defenders. Especially with all of the switching.

    he means well but he's trying to do too much. "I got the 3 point line, nevermind I got the paint, oh wait I got neither"

    That timeout just saved our season. $160 million well spent.

    I agree, Ennis looks lost out there on D. Maybe he’s a decent 1-1 defender idk?.. but I do know he sucks at switching. Seems to lose his man constantly and well Melo is Melo ; at least he provided well needed offense this game.

    Actually, in the case of this season so far, enough was way too f$#king much.

    Good on CP3 for speaking up and backing it up on the court.

    Someone stepped up as leader and demanded accountability from the guys--CP3. Even MDA stepped aside.

    Melo needs to take ownership of his role. It starts with the superstars. Everything else follows ...
