    We're in good shape. James Harden time!!! Great work with the Rockets weathering the Spurs wave.

    2 defensive miscues to end the quarter, but other than that I liked what I saw

    I am not giving up on this game by any means. But there is something special with this team when the Spurs have Kawhi and Parker playing out of their minds 18-24 (75% shooting) and Green 5-6 while Harden is only 3-15 and we are still only 5 points down in the 4th quarter in SA.

    Time for that 4th quarter lineup that normally brings it home in the start

    And he's going to be effective every minute he plays, unlike another MVP candidate who can't hit 40 minutes without looking like garbage.

    Lou needs to step up this first 5-6 min ... He has not been aggressive enough .

    I'd like to perhaps see Dekker out there if they are gonna go with Kawhi at the 4 ... Anderson can't stay with him and if we put EG on him ( who has been good ) then it still creates a mismatch with a big on a small ...

    Trev has been cold and he's gonna need all his juice at the end .

    The first 2 minutes of the 4th are important to set the tone. Bench brigade got to come out well

    LaMarcASS has 4 fouls. Keep that in mind.
