    Wooooh! Take that mojo into the locker room! Harden with the Hail Mary hockey assist for the buzzer beater!

    Stupid foul from Mac, gets the points back at the other end on the pass from Westbrook, but he makes a lot of mistakes on the defensive end. Rockets need to get untracked

    Does anyone really care that we played a shitty half and are still only down 5?

    We’re trailing but we’re showing poise not getting down and letting the game get away. I like the aggressiveness if taking it to the hoop even though it hasn’t always paid off.

    Their transition game is hurting us but I think we’re in good shape to win this!

    Nurkic is going to have a stroke.

    Increase that pace boys!

    Lucky to be down 5 with the insane rebounding differential, we start hitting some open 3's we can easily win this one

    We don't even pretend to go for the offensive board.

    We should be down by 20+. They are letting us hang around. I believe we will win this game.

    He also has a tendency to jump into his defender, needs to stay on his feet and put face into shooters chest.

    Forget the Blazers. Rockets aren’t winning a championship if Tucker and Covington don’t stop sucking ass.

    Those people would be trolls then if they are hoping for mediocrity to complain about. I on the other hand hate playing down to a clearly inferior team. They're better than their record, and the Clips and Bucks also lost today against non playoff caliber teams, so...

    imagine winning the rebounding battle by 22 at halftime, but you’re only up 5 against a team that’s currently shooting 40% from the field
