    If these mothereffers don't start working on their free throws... This team is going the let a lot of wins slip out of their grasp.

    Deandre averages 7.1 FTA in 33 minutes. He is a 41% FT shooter who has been sick.

    He shot 4 of 8 on a night where he played almost 41 minutes in OT where the Rockets trailed most of the way by double digits.

    JJ Reddick shot more threes than Deandre shooting FTs (9/12), 27 of a possible 36 points. HE IS SHOOTING ALMOST 50% on 3s this season and LEADING the league.

    Why can't the Rockets force the other team into doing what they want? They let Deandre dunk it because they don't want to defend him (scared). How hard is it to step in and foul him? It's easy.

    We did't want to start the Hack a Deandre because they would do the Hack a Harden and we would have lost that battle

    If Harden is on Redick it's an instant win for the Clippers. That's why they had the Rockets number for so long because the Rockets would put Harden on Redick.

    We make our free throws, we win...

    If coach played Thornton in the 3rd, we win...

    If we don't switch on every defensive play, we win...

    If we show effort for more than the 4th Qtrs of games, we win...

    If we played more Harrell, Less Terrence Jones, we win...

    If we had a coach that could coach, we win...

    Perimeter defense was total ****, unbelievable how many 3's they hit, they couldn't miss ****. We need better wing defenders, better defensive system

    Harden has been having major motor issues, his mind is gone at times, total lack of focus and passion. Somebody needs to wake his ass up because if Harden would of defended decently on Reddick, if Harden would of been his self, this would of been a easy win.

    **** perimeter D, Harden disappearing is why we lost despite Howard going bizzurk and Thornton being ultra clutch.

    Corey Brewer? Harden had a DNP that game, the defensive issues go well beyond Harden

    when he was in Minny Corey scored 51 points on Harden! 51 POINTS!!

    I think before that 51 point out burst against Harden Corey had never score more than 26 points.

    Man, I woulda been hacking this team to the ground. Without Blake, they suck at drawing fouls. They won't keep calling CP3s flops.

    Anyways, Thornton was sick. The Rockets are learning when to play fast and when to play slow which is key come playoff time.
