    To be a winning team, you can't let your runs be matched by other teams runs right after. Rockets can't sustain a lead, which really has been the case all season.

    damn, we finally figure out a way to attack them, and Jones and Parsons just want to attack solo.

    this is a game of adjustments. we can still run the H2H pnr with Harden further out.

    we need to get Daniels more shots. my God, Jones kept trying to score over Lopez after Daniels had hit his 1st shot. didn't he get the memo? that's selfishness, just because he wants to impress his POR relatives

    OKC is better
    SAS is better (although we swept them)
    Clipper is better
    Dallas is better
    MEM is better
    Portland is better
    Warrior is better

    Will McHale cut down on that POS Parson's playing time in the 2nd half to give the team a legit chance to win a game?

    Mchale should minimize jones and parsons minutes for the rest of the 2nd half, i lost track of how many selfish shots both took

    This team isn't going anywhere with Mcfail relying on Harden only ball, has there ever been a possession where the play isn't ran through him? this is a team game, ffs, play some team ball

    Well, I guess it's good news that the Rockets are getting outshot badly and have gotten little out of Harden(who's now shooting 30% through 2 1/2 games) and almost nothing out of Parsons(who's now shooting just under 38% through 2 1/2 games), yet find themselves only down 1.

    The only problem is they were in the exact same situation in Game 2 and those two hardly contributed a thing in the 2nd half. And Aldridge has been quiet thus far which is scary.

    The game is there for the taking. But Harden and Parsons have got to show up if the Rockets are to have a prayer of winning.

    Here's the deal though...I can watch Asik with NO ONE around him under the basket and he STANDS and watches as Portland gets the rebound. I mean seriously we have to have more than 2 players playing with heart. IMO Portland has gotten into our heads...and McHale would screw up a one car funeral.

    I would actually wouldn't mind Powell getting some time. He can hit a mid range shot and long enough to rebound and bother LMA
