    +1 to whoever finds my post predicting we would win by 7 when everyone was freaking out about our lost lead

    Keep it rolling. Tough back to back heading up to that freezer called Minnesota.

    Mentally tough team folks. Always composed, cool, calm, confident.

    Harden knows numbers are important in MVP battle. I actually don't mind that much, but passing a wide open layup was disgusting.

    I'm okay with that. The Rockets are playing short handed without Gordon- yes- but they are also playing in a situation that they have been unfamiliar with lately and that's with Gordon not in the game to help stop a run. Charlotte tried to beat us with our style of play and almost done it, but we still win. Harden wasn't going to see much rest anyhow.

    Lol at us blowing a 20 point lead trying to get Harden a triple-double.

    Lol at everyone and their mom knowing we'd win easily as soon as Harden got that 10th assist.

    And lol at Corey Brewer for playing like the Brewer of old.

    Just lol.

    Very good team when the game is close. Like the adjustments after timeouts.

    This was the Spurs game all over. Got cocky and almost got punished. Trust me the Warriors and the Spurs will punish us if we blow big leads like that.

    Hornets announcers kept saying Harden was hunting for his triple double.

    Can't tell if true.

    A little immature performance by the whole team but they got the win. Rockets got to realize the way they are playing and the hype they are getting means they are gonna get everyone's best effort against them.

    One of the best difference this year from last is we win games we should. Seeing the Rockets close out games now is amazing

    I have a feeling the media is going to come up with some stupid ass narrative about James chasing the triple double instead of focusing on the win.

    Different players stepping up in the crunch. Harrell this time with 2 clutch ft's.
