    No, because when you are in the middle of the action you don't see things to same. Sometimes you need to be told and directed.

    Harden did not lack effort tonight. He was not the problem solely, the Rockets as a team lost this game with their no box out rebounding, their switching on everything, and just typical Rockets basketball.

    Wow. Typical year my man. Any lead is no lead. This team is seriously not disciplined, they free lance half the game thinking they know what's happening.

    Calvin and Bart absolutely tearing apart that play where Harden held on to the ball and it was shot clock violation with the scores tied

    We see that **** in several games and sometimes multiple times a game

    Rockets will probably make the playoffs.

    But with JB and how he doesnt like to call timeouts at the end of games worries me

    As soon as he saw ariza begin to drive it in he should be half on the floor screeming at the ref

    We still have the players to make it happen. They have to find the formula to finish the dance.

    They've got to figure out how to make it happen. You can change the pieces but the game doesn't change. You can't make those mistakes night in and night out. - Calvin

    How about keep running pick n roll in the 2nd half? They complety abandoned dount this.

    We were Rollin and shooting well because our bigs are bigger stronger and more athletic. We were pounding them inside and then just stopped after halftime beacaue they made a little run.

    At some point though the rockets gotta play some better defense to close out games. Thai game is what it is I mean horford and bezmore just hit 11 3s combined? That's crazy and what got them the win. But as with the Pelicans game when Gordon hit 8 3s were just getting torched and not all of it is on the defense some of it is just playing dumb luck.

    That bezmore 3 to tie it with a min left was the killer... A step back well defended 3 at the end of the shot clock and he just drills it like he is James harden. I mean that's the type of year we are having.

    We need another superstar here with dwight and harden, I like ty he needs to play more Bev doesn't really bring much but should def still get minutes he's a nice for a bench guy.

    But I'd trade every guy on our roster but JH/DH

    I don't want to hear anymore dmo talk. He's a nice rotations player nothing more. If you really think he's going to get max money... I laugh at you. He might be one of the worst rebounding bigs I have seen. Up there with Mo Taylor.

    I love capela but you gotta trade him to get some talent.

    Capela/jones/Lawson/ariza for a max player pls preferably Paul George. (Unrealistic) do something morey. JH/DH/star is good enough we just need that other guy to truely compete with everyone.

    I'm not even mad at this game we should have won were in every game it's just not rolling out way but we need some changes.

    Play ty more he's great on offense him and JH need to figure out how to play with each other ty should be avg 18/7 on this team easy if he got 35 min a night.

    Rooting for your team to lose is a b**** move. Stop being a b****.

    This Rockets team has been on meltdown for the entire season.

    This is the 3rd consecutive loss that we had the game in hand but made bone headed mistakes that hurt us in the end. 2nd consecutive game that we had huge leads and chose to mess around, thinking we could coast to an easy win, but lost it in the end.

    How many of those have we had this season?! How many times has the Rocket's boneheaded mistakes or immaturity cost them a game this season?!

    3 times in the last 4 games, add the 5 losses to the Nuggets and Nets, another to Sac without Rondo, and probably a couple more from early in the season. That's at least 10 losses this season that the Rockets could have avoided if they had the maturity to take every team seriously.

    I'm just disgusted.

    Bickerstaff reminds me too much of Adleman's tenure in Minnesota. Makes me want to throwup actually. Can we get get a coach Les? For the love of God are we tanking the season? There has to be a coach that wantsvthid job that's more qualified. Call JVG for God's sake...

    It's easy to blame D-mo, but down the stretch the Howard/Capela lineup was the one that couldn't grab a board.

    The Hawks outplayed us, completely. It was only close because one of the greatest shooters of all time is in an epic shooting funk. Even still they scored 120. This Rockets team simply isn't very good, we play a good game and people think we've turned a corner, but we haven't we are who we are.

    Just waiting for Morey to finally throw in the towel and make some personnel moves, this group simply doesn't have the structure or the effort necessary. Time to try a new coach and new players around Harden. All these games feel like purgatory to me, nothing more.

    It's not that hard. They took 12 seconds to walk the ball up. Show the replay. Find out who did it. Name the guy. Ask him why.
