    When a strategy as simple as "run them off the 3 point line" is enough to give the Pelicans a blow out win against us... Welp.

    This is what we had to endure to get a Wiltjer 3? That's too much, man.

    Back to the drawing board for our defense. Good grief I hate it when they give very little effort defensively.

    Nevertheless, it always comes down to 3 pointers for us. IF we make 4 or 5 more of them, this game is tight. If they miss 2 or 3 more, we are winning.

    Good. I have no issue with him doing that at the end of a loss.

    If he's doing it throughout the whole game, and it contributes to the loss then I'll care.

    But considering triple doubles are seemingly the determining factor for the MVP, go get it James.

    Lol what? You think he was in there to chase stats? He was clearly in there to try and get the Rockets back in the game, which sort of happened until it didn't.

    Season high 128?
    Salmon (Solomon Hill) career high? (Or was it season?)

    Why is Davis still in the game, unless DMo just can't play...or doesn't want to.

    We can't give up 120+ and expect to win

    The Rockets give up 128 to a team that averages 25 less than that a game. Who were missing Cousins BTW.

    Hopefully lesson learnt. Harder game next, hopefully the rest of the team put in some effort for that, not like they used any up this game.
