    How are we only down by 2? We were playing like dog crap and yet right there in the half. Let's go!

    Agreed. He actually is having a strong game elsewhere, but you can't have 7 turnovers. Just can't do it.

    Harden having trouble taking care of the ball against regular season teams. Good luck against playoff defense.

    This place is worse than Texans fans. I swear to holy baby Jesus the guy behind me yesterday had a meltdown in the second qtr because they were running the ball, up by 13 I think. You don't have to say anything at all...but if you're here, why not root root root for the home team? Idk, Houston fans are the worst, worse than homer ass Raptors commentary.

    Hence why shooting 2-17 from three has them only down 2.

    The threes aren't falling so the Rockets should continue to attack the basket like they were doing late in the half, especially Harden. If he's agressively attacking the basket there's no one on the Raptors that can stop him. However, he needs to take care of the ball.

    but I thought calling out Harden for his turnovers were prohibited by law here in clutchfans?

    Nah we don't, we know Harden's flaws, we also know his strengths & they far outnumber his weaknesses.

    Everyone sees your agenda and trust me, you're losing credibility with each post, you're new here so it's no too late to turn around.

    Just stop with that negative Nancy nonsense please. As Mathloom pointed out in another thread about "playoff defenses intensifying", why do you and so many others think ONLY the rockets will suffer in the playoffs? Every team over the course of the regular season develops an identity, "you are who you are."

    No team is perfect. Rockets can just as easily catch fire in the playoffs as opposed to going cold and increasing turnovers. No one knows how the playoffs will shake out. Just watch and enjoy.

    Harden is the reason we're relevant, we're winning, we're watchable, and still folks wanna point out his turnovers.. I'd take 28/7/ 11 with 5 tpg any day as long as we're winning

    This game is very winnable. The Rockets shot like crap from downtown, the Raptors are running on fumes, and it's only a 2-point game.

    It's getting close to 6 per game, could even be 7 at the end of the season

    Right. This should be how everybody feels. Can't have 7 turnovers in 1 half, though. Just can't do it.
