    We had 1 turnover the entirely first half!
    We just need to play our own game and we will be fine.
    Go Rockets!

    what other city has been doing this throughout the playoffs?

    Does SA boo whenever Durant has the ball? Does Utah boo when Westbrook has the ball?

    99ers need a health insurance plan with this team. @tinman approved.

    Call it the Centrum Silver membership.

    Ugh. C'mon Rockets

    This team looks like they completely forgot how to shoot the ball with confidence.

    Like all of those games they spent throwing it up there without hesitation went straight out the window when the regular season ended.

    Even on wide open threes they are hesitating to shoot it. I wish somebody would remind them who they are.

    Harden settled way too much for those contested 3's.. especially when he's not shooting the ball well, drive bro!! even if you don't score you suck the defense in and create open looks for your team mates!

    Not a good defensive team but they do have a hell of a good defensive coach. When given a 7 game series, it's given them the opportunity to just focus on the Rockets and what they do. Thibs looks like he's done a damn good job of limiting points in the point and the rockets' open 3's are out of rhythm.

    Harden has been OBVIOUSLY fouled on 2 of his threes, nothing. NOTHING.

    Handswipe on a Wolf? WHISTLE!

    He has become the most predictable offensive player in the league. I truly believe our “3’s and Layups” philosophy has caused Harden to regress in his offense game.

    EVERYONE, including my 98 grandmother, knows what he’s going to do once he starts the between the legs dribble from top of the 3-Point line.

    Either

    A) dribble until clock is at 3 and take a contested step-back three

    Or

    B) try to drive into a congested lane and draw a foul

    That’s pretty much the FULL extent of his offense now.

    Remember how smooth and versatile he was the first 2 years we had him. SMH....

    When Harden has KAT on the perimeter guarding him with foul trouble, Capela has a mismatch inside, better to take KAT off the dribble than shoot a contested three. Unfortunately we are also bricking wide open threes too. :(

    Maybe, but the Wolves do have the personnel to disrupt the Rockets on the defensive end. Kinda like OKC
