    Harden is a fantastic player you dingbats.

    I genuinely think only LeBron has been better the past two seasons. My issue is with D’Antoni more than Harden.

    what for sure is a difference is ariza and lmm were both good rebounders and understood that aspect of the game for the rox.

    No more excuses, cut eyelid or not, lead the team James, start by protecting the ball - and lead this team.

    No one is going to care or feel sorry if we lose....US AGAINST THE WORLD !!

    GO ROCKETS !!

    Defense tighten up, cut the turnovers, and rebound. Easy win.

    I don't understand why we're playing so jittery. Even CP looks out of it. You know what GS is gonna do. It's like the Rockets haven't seen a trap before

    Thing is even if they give their best effort they are still small. Even if they are boxing out their taller players can play volleyball until they get the ball.

    Kerr is exploiting our small ball switching style.

    Looks like they're hunting Faried and blowing by him everytime, am I watching a different game?

    Do you not realize the Clippers did video game numbers on this Warriors defense?

    There’s a better chance of Kawhi Leonard ending up in Houston this offseason than all of those things happening in the second half.

    Remember when we had Ariza and Mbah Moute, you know, guys with actual length that can bother shots but also sky up to help out on the glass? Well, Morey decided to give those guys up and not replace them.

    Halftime show focused so much on Curry's dislocated finger on his non-shooting hand, and saying almost nothing about Harden's eye.

    This will continue to happen unless we win this game. We have to get these guys THIS game or the league will say the game was officiated the way it should the Rockets just could not get it done.

    They could try hard and rebounding with their size would still be a problem.

    What's frustrating is the Rockets have the bodies to be an elite defensive team but MDA loves smallball and is too scared to move Faried down to the 4 and Tucker down to the 3 even though the results in limited sample size were incredibly good.

    Everyone so upset at our coach and players. But, maybe the Warriors are just better. Sometimes the truth hurts. The Rockets are a good team. But, the Warriors are a team of great players.
