Why does every team become the '86 Bears when they play us?

Same players go off against Rockets ...Dennis Schroeder - Steven Adams ... Rocket killers ..

Starts with coach and Harden when they don’t respect teams ... same when we get big lead and let off pedal .. start stat hunting and let teams back in games

 

dribble dribble dribble step back three isn’t conducive to drawing a lot of fouls

We know James can hit difficult shots and do amazing things, but why not make it easier on ourselves instead of relying on him to be amazing all the time.

We see what happens when he is not amazing for an entire game. We can be beat by anyone.

 

thumb typing as below:
Sometimes we lost our identify （harden/tandem), the time we choking or deciding to change to a lay-back mode.
Thats the time every team we play against looks like the 86' bear
（some teams who like us relying heavily on their key players…while the players choking, their coach gonna stand out to have a way out; mda dunt and wont）

 

I watched until a bit into the third quarter and then I turned it off and went to sleep. Wasnt going to lose sleeping time to watch much more than I already did.

But my comment wasnt just about this game.

Whether it's a league conspiracy, bad refs, legit complaints or skewed fan perspective....its not really relevant.

The Rockets do plenty to shoot themselves in the foot and they lost this game and every other one they've lost because of things they did/didnt do despite some potentially bad reffing.

 

The Rockets whole championship aspirations depends on if Harden's hitting his 3's. Being he doesn't put much effort into anything else, this whole organization's future is dependent on Harden's stepback. Our offense is real gimmicky and it's all on Morey who's controlling the offense from his calculator

 

Rockets are mediocre on the road, teams are extra motivated, Gilgeous Alexander has been a revelation, what you need more?

 

Also as far as him seeming gun shy, 9 of his 17 shots came on three pointers.

 

At least the Astros will start up in 2 or 3 months. If they can, after getting caught cheating. Thats what Tilman should do. Rockets can't beat other teams, so start cheating. With this team, without an upgrade, they will have to cheat to win.

 

While the Christmas Day warriors game definately looked rigged. We did not lose last night because we weren’t getting foul calls.

I mean every significant player on their team shot over 50%. If teams are shooting like that you will have a tough time beating anyone when Harden, Rivers, and Capela can’t buy a bucket.

Everytime we made a run Gallinari or Schroeder would score at will.

The one possession where we missed 3 wide open threes just summed up the night.

 

Gallinari not even supposed to freaking play and then cant miss last night.

 

We don’t have a championship mentality. Simple as that.

 

Dang Trammys everywhere.

 

You think its bad now, wait till the postseason.

The wheels may come off completely

 

My friend...it's because our D is usually bad. It can be good but mostly it's bad.

Did you see OKCs D? It was good. It was the opposite of ours.
