    Iggy is gonna give Harden fits, Gallo will be freely roaming beyond the arc, and Faried is gonna bully Morris/PPatt on the offensive glass all game long.

    Just please let this team survive January.

    Here's to hoping we lose this one so we can get rid of this fail coach and his incredibly awful system

    Bad road team vs a good home team. I think Nuggets all jacked up winning against OKC, so they should be flat against the Rockets. 2 game winning streak, but if Harden becomes inaccurate, chalk up another loss.

    It's going to be a very tough game.

    Denver plays into MANY of our weaknesses.

    Excellent rebounding team. #1 offensive rebounding team. Multiple players crash the glass.
    High flying team. We lack enough players with length to stop the dunks.
    Excellent cutting team. Our boxing out is terrible.
    Excellent PnR offense. Our help defense off picks is terrible.
    Excellent transition offense. #2 in Fastbreak efficiency. #2 in Fastbreak points per game. Our transition Defense is terrible.
    Excellent ball movement. #2 in assists per game. Our rotations and switches are confused and slow.
    Very good shot blockers. 4th highest blocks in NBA.
    3rd highest pace team. We're not going to out run Denver.

    Denver is basically a more mature, more balanced, more experienced version of the Rockets that plays better defense.

    Unless they go ice cold or we score like crazy, they're probably going to pound us into the ground.
