    Refs would have taken away a point because the Dwight ft attempt was so bad. Rockets lose by 1.

    We definitely need another big
    I love Harrell but he is too undersized in too many situations

    Westbrook gets 49, Harden wins it with an assist. Boo hoo.

    Because Harden always shrinks going against OKC. That's why.

    No capela, bev isn't at full strength. Westbrook had to go super saiyan and he still lost. Harden doesn't need to prove himself as long as team keeps winning.

    Westbrook is a great player but nothing about his game tonight remotely changed my mind about how much Harden is leading this MVP race.

    During halftime, he was actually really high on Harden as his pick for MVP. There's another game going on so we will have to see his reaction to the end of this game later.

    To me this is not a foul.

    I wouldn't mind about his size if he could rebound.

    That Westbrook pull up with 10 secs left was predictable

    Thats not a late game foul IMO. But the refs owed us one gawd damn.. Why do they cheat every time Rocket match up with OKC?

    he can't. I'm all in for trading him. too much of a liability at this point.

    You realize it's a team game, and our team won?

    What are you talking about? Harden won the game. End of story. Westbrook was abnormally hot from 3pt range and put up a lot of points in a loss. Harden nearly had a triple double in a win. In what world did he get significantly outplayed? Media is going to media but nothing about tonight's game shifted any MVP votes anywhere. If anything happened, it showed how good this Rocket's team is to a National audience which will be even more important in really determining who wins the MVP.

    We need another center. Brewer and someone have to go. Team needs height.

    Funnily enough it was when Westbrook was NOT ON THE FLOOR that the Thunder bridged a 19 point lead to 7 when he returned to the game with 7 minutes remaining.

    Tbh we always go up 13/17 at some point, but we're just not able to keep the lead and in the last quarter we always ****ing suck...i think it's probably due to their physicality...we're basically the opposite.
