    Actually check the last 2 mins of the game the Rockets did go to him couple times, and he just got pushed away by Horford out of the post.

    Or that we can't win without both? Howard would have to play without Harden for your circumstance

    Was DMO really out of bounds?

    If Atlanta were down 2 starters in Houston or in Atlanta for that matter...think about this game through this lense for a moment. Now you see?

    He struggled shooting the ball today. But I do agree McHale needs to go to him down the stretch some games. The only two games I remember on top of my head were against T'wolves and Nuggets (no howard).

    McHale needed to run plays for Terry down the stretch today as he was the only one making shots.
    Brewer, Ariza, Smith, Beverley were all chucking it.

    No idea. They never showed the replay, but I would assume he was since the refs reviewed it for a few minutes. Plus D-Mo's a horrible rebounder. Odds are he would be out of bounds.

    Nope on the balls of his feet it sure looked like, but the refs were going to give this game to the Hawks no matter what ... AGAIN !!

    Wasn't the spread 8 points in favor of the Hawks? Hmm...

    This one is won that got away. Giving up 15 point leads in the 4th is troubling.. Woudl have been nice to win this without Harden.

    For real. We could be playing with a damn middle school squad and a blown double digit 4th quarter lead will always piss me off, especially when the refs just ruin it for us.

    Utah up 14 with 3 1/2 to go in Memphis. So no harm, no foul(aside from the stupid refs) with the loss tonight.

    Well, we can't win without Harden and D12. Play D12 without Harden and then say that if we lose.

    When you're up 15 in the 4th you shouldn't need a closer. Just play smart basketball and don't go full r****d. We did.
