    Did anybody actually expect a victory?

    I don't think JBB is getting fired unless Morey is getting fired.

    You fire JBB, Morey's just gonna want someone who buys into the analytics. How likely is it that someone takes over our mess this far into the season anyways?

    I think we just need to go back to the basics.

    Trade for shooters, go back to pick n' roll, cutting for open 3s and layups, and just play with an overall team mentality on both sides of the ball.

    This sucks, but most of us are diehards. Good times are coming! #soon

    He tried to become a playmaker in the 3rd quarter which led to some disastrous turnovers which in turn affected his confidence.

    Rockets organization is so quiet....

    Even the organization does not care at all.

    What i don't get is that when we had Kevin Martin he would play off ball but for Harden hes wants to be point guard and not play off ball.

    Diaw was making Jones look like a slow poke

    Makes no since how this dude gets abused by anyone down low

    He also loses his man a lot. No wonder Coach Cal benched him http://kykernel.com/2011/12/11/john-calipari-terrence-jones-gave-us-zero/

    It's been said before but...adjust those expectations fellas. This team cannot win this year.

    Unfortunately I had money on them winning, but even taking that into account I don't get too upset anymore. We played the Spurs tonight which is the 2nd best team in the league imo.

    When it gets tough, Harden becomes a fold master.

    Do you even know what point you're trying to make? How relevant is this question? You said he never won anything, I showed you he did. What does money have to do with anything? He has plenty of that in case you're wondering.

    Harden has been irritating this year especially on Defense but he scores when no one else does on the team as we know. I think Harden was proving a point tonight. Kinda what Kobe did years ago against Phoenix...I'm not gonna take that many shots and let's see WHO else will step up and score. I'm gonna pass it to the open guy and see what happens. Well we saw what happened.

    After trading Brewer, Kardanshian genital still make Harden feel exhausted.

    Coach is still idiot coach.
    Soft team is still soft team.
    Punchline is still punchline.

    The sad thing is, Harden had 4 straight turnovers and 2 jacked 3's without letting Pat Bev. his PG bring the ball up court..... thats 6 poss. with no one touching ball but him

    not counting the 2 he got ball and then passed to Ariza with less than 4 seconds on shot clock....

    its not winning basketball

    We need a basketball guy helping build the roster, Morey needs to have some of his control taken away.
