    Rocks played hard, no shame losing to an inferior team. If Harden came to played tonight, it would of been a different story. Knicks getting way too many rebounds cost us the game.

    Harden’s lack of athleticism is a concern.

    He looks slow as dirt against athletic teams

    MDA is still a ****ing terrible and senile coach who is not good with actually drawing up plays. It's going to be the same old, same old Rockets as much you guys try to fool yourselves. Adorably show up against good teams (like most mediocre teams) and crap the bed against bad teams. Despite EG playing bad, he still decides to not try out someone as good as Carroll. Can this buffoon leave the team already??!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I liked the play. LEave Harden in the backcourt, gives Russ even more room for one on one to break his man down. Not a terrible shot, just didnt go in.

    Welp. That was pathetic. Teams can shoot over us and rebound over us.

    the rockets really need to hustle more to make super small ball work in the NBA. I know its just one loss but it was to some major chumps.

    Normally teams go small to compete vs houston and it benefits houston with rebounding disadvantage

    The knicks are a dumbass franchise that signs 100 power forwards and have no choice but to play big. Rebounding weakness glaring in this one.

    Westbrook is going to be probably the clutch time ball handler mainly because teams full court press in last minute clutch situations and Harden is more often stationary and shake the press while Westbrook is very good at breaking free from presses.
