    Meh, these games are due sometimes. Maybe they can get hot and grind one out, Wolves certainly have problems closing out games.

    STFU. I didn't say that the refs were Mexican, I said did they get the refs from Mexico City, hence referencing the Texans game where the refs clearly were cheating, but American refs.

    Is our back half of the schedule just the easiest thing in the world or something? Because the amount of times we keep getting screwed is baffling.

    You guys just need to like roll a fatty and chill. Rockets are still going to win, but refs needed to spot the T-Pups a 13 point handicap to make it interesting.

    NBA needs to shorten the season and get rid of back to backs

    Out scored by 17 that quarter.

    Guys just need to dig deep. Find a rhythm and keep it. We settled for way too many threes when the layup or a drive to the rim was open.

    Capela and our bigs need to make it harder on Towns. The team needs to do a better job at securing rebounds. Can't be flat foot out there!!

    Dude they are not going to have perfect quarters every freaking game. No team does so them still fighting through their mistakes and still putting up 28 points is good.

    dying by the 3.

    the frustrating thing is when the shots aren't falling, they keep shooting. i don't think it'll turn around.

    this is where coaching has to come into play. draw up plays to get to the lane. make the adjustment to shoot twos possibly after you come out at the half.

    i really thought we could get 10 in a row, bc the spurs are next, and i chalked that up as a loss.

    this is how you beat us. have a big that can score.

    They didn't shoot enough like last game, why, slow pace. Harden played way to passive at the beginning of the game, with sloppy passing

    Need better ball movement in the second half. Too many bad shot attempts, too much iso.

    We need to build a wall to keep certain refs out. Right on.

    Gotta play Gordon more minutes in the second half. 13 per half is not enough for a Star like him.
