    ok so when does JB learn when to call a timeout instead of watching the other team finishing making runs to get back in the game? When does he stop playing Toilet Paper Clown Brewer? 2nd game in a row like this

    I do not think so JR. They are not the same team. Mentally.

    There is not really an objective. The highnote is the 4th place and a dance with a top team. And that is it.

    who would you rather take that shot other than harden? he carried the team in the 3rd quarter and scored half the points and forced the hack-a-X strat. sometimes ppl make a mistake, it happens but he should have the ball.

    He's said in the past he wouldn't want to coach because he'd probably "rough someone up".

    yeah but the energy and effort is clearly there in this game especially in the first half. i even saw harden play D. i think there is a lot of positive to come out of this game.

    We allowed to outscore us by a full QUARTERS worth of points in the final 20 min of the game.

    INEXCUSABLE. screw them all.

    Sometimes losing in the short term is winning in the long term.

    That was probably the strangest play I've seen in the NBA this year. The entire team just very slowly strolled up the court. I thought they were going to call a timeout or something. Harden didn't even try to do anything until there was 5 seconds left.

    Les won't hear you. If he could, he wouldn't have extended McHale's contract last year. Face the hard, cold, fact.

    Les is not a rich owner, lower tier amongst all 30 really. He says he cares about the winning, well maybe he does, but he also cares about profit. Having a Brad Stevens won't bring you revenue compared to a HOF coach, not a worthy investment to Les.

    F you Les.

    Im getting nauseous at the thought of what the Warriors are going to do to this team on Thursday.

    I love your posts man usually but the Rockets need to ship out Dwight and build around Harden.

    If Dwight can do this again and again I'll reconsider, until that point I don't think Harden/Dwight will ever have consistent chemistry. I just can't see it. I've given up on the duo.

    Time to ship out Dwight and see if you can throw everything at getting Cousins who may be on the block. Cousins is temperamental but opposites attract. While Harden is aloof and seems to not give a ____ at times, Cousin cares too much and puts his passion out there.

    Then add thibs next year and that's a great duo. I think we have the assets to get him if Sactown is fine with keeping him in the west.
