    They got smoked by the best team in the league twice in less than a week and made no adjustments between games. That's what we're upset about. Also, don't forget they lost at Orlando recently, Chicago before that(and they're in a terrible slump right now), and completely no showed at New Orleans prior to that. The Rockets are not playing well at all.

    What's the point of pretending that Harden isn't our starting PG? Why even have Beverley out there if he does nothing? I would replace Beverley with Brewer in the starting lineup. You have a better and bigger lineup with more energy. Then Beverley can come off the bench to provide a spark.

    Rockets have a frontcourt? That's news to me.

    Besides Dmo they don't have another player that has a positive impact, Dwight is injured but still has a TO problem.

    Can't wait till Jones returns

    I'd say effort, awareness, execution has been lacking from most of the team. But that's not why I'm skeptical. Harden is having to do everything.

    After every loss I say to myself that I'm not watching anymore until they get out of the first round, then the next game comes and I'm right back yelling at the tv. I'm sure I'll be turning the tube off after halftime of this one the way both teams are trending right now but I guess I'll be back for the Lakers and feel like we're title contenders again after we win that one smh

    This is exactly what I thought when I saw this game thread. The shellacking from GSW was so thorough it has sapped all the joy from even anticipating watching the Rockets play... wow.

    I'm sure a win will help, but it will take a lot more to get that ass whopping off the mind.

    Rocket just won against the Thunder and losing to GSW got the fan base taking Xanax.

    Turnovers will kill us against the Suns. Goran and Bledsoe are deadly on the break.

    Hopefully we keep this in mind although based on past history, I wouldn't be holding my breath.
