    Particularly true if you don't throw it to him.

    Howard seems fake strong now.
    Even slightest bit of contact from guards, he loses the ball in traffic or can't finish above rim.
    Altough I am still hopeful because there is such a thing called playoff Dwight.

    Just got back from the game, glad I got to see a good Harden performance.

    Howard clearly mailing it in tonight, I mean WTF.

    Lawson is embarrassingly bad, what is wrong with him.

    It's time for DMo to start showing some improvement, play him a little more.

    I mean we are a mediocre team but at least I got to see a win. Still no movement offensively and our defense is a complete joke.

    How many Harden's TOs tonight are caused by throwing to him?

    Dmo is clearly not ready plus he stayed in foul trouble.

    Dmo should be sent to D-League for a while.

    That was cool to win with defense at the end. Hopefully that idea will catch the wind and take us beyond the oceans of the Western Conference Finals.

    You do realize I was trying to reverse jinx with the way I said it. Besides, the Rockets never lose at home to the crappy Lakers.

    None. Rewatching the replay I don't believe we ran one play for him the entire game. Opposing teams don't bother with postup defenses at all, they just crowd both sides of the lane and try to get as many sets of hands swiping at the ball when Harden drives. For ISO plays opposing defenses just try to force Harden out of his sweet spots and get him to drive for the easy turnover.

    I'm glad the Rockets won after that Nets game.

    But let me say this....that basketball we witnessed by the Rockets at the start of the 3rd quarter was an abomination! Like 5 turnovers in a row? They couldn't even get off a shot? It was like they LEGIT forgot how to play basketball. I don't know what the hell that was. I couldn't believe my eyes.

    No, I have watched many games. And I have seen sloppy play happen, but not to quite the degree as that instance/sequence. Not to the point where it was like 5 minutes of game time where the Rockets couldn't even get a shot off.

    There is sloppy play and then there was that.
