    Rockets defense in the second half was some of the best I have seen in atleast 15 games.

    When they defend like this they are almost impossible to beat.

    It's silly but our offense really sparks the defense. When guys are shooting good they just fight harder.

    I think heard that are defense has been 4th best in the last 5 games. No coincidence that we're 4-1 in those game and the one loss came from blowing a 20 point lead in the final 8 min of the game.

    Corey Brewer aka Crusty Ballsack is the worst player since Morrison

    proves that dekker and trez need minutes even when gordon and nene are back.

    MDA been so stubborn with his 8 man rotation the past month. it's almost like he's picking his squad like a soccer team.

    Another good win for the awesome guys.

    Harden started off slow but when he caught fire, it was on and popping.

    I love Harrell's energy. Surely wish he would get more playing time. Dude deserves it.

    Bev stepped his game up in the absence of Gordon.

    Again great win

    Was at work. Had to listen to the game on the radio. MT sounds like he was having a ball in the 2nd half!

    As usual, Rockets get no respeck from the Inside the NBA clowns with the exception of EJ. They totally ignored the Rockets highlights so they could crack up over some idiotic joke. And Shaq...you need to watch more Rockets games if you can't believe Harden is the MVP.

    I usually prefer my steaks rare, but not if they're winning steaks.

    Good team W last night. We suffered a little bit the first few minutes without EGo but man, Bev is the man!! altough Harden is also the Man, also Dekker and Trez!

    Man, we can be a fun team some nights, yesterday I was really torn apart on trading anyone on this team. It has to be something really really sure.

    I donĀ“t know about you guys, but for me this is a rested team playing loose, it really feels we can make another push and get some separation from Utah in 2nd half of the season.

    There is zero logical explanation for why Trez doesn't play at least 15 minutes every single game. His energy and hustle alone are worthy of getting consistent minutes, let alone his ability to finish at the rim.
