The problem is this team for this month is entirely one dimensional. When the 3s are not falling what do they do? They continue to jack horrible 3s. They need to attack the paint and utilize the midrange game or at the very least have people cut. This offense is looking worse and worse as the season goes on. The defense that's an entirely different story. Absolutely pathetic this month.
Damn... we gotta improve not trend down. Just like a Houston team start to get a little bit of credit then they blow it.
What I'm angry about is not this loss. **** happens. What I'm freaking angry about is James Harden. He's how old? 27? 28? And he still parties before gamedays and doesn't care good care of his body. When he will grow up? What goes around comes around. He won't be able to keep this up for long and the consequences won't only be a loss here and there in big cities. Freaking irresponsible.
This loss is on me. I didn't do what I was supposed to do on game days. I was under the impression rockets were good enough to over come my silly superstitions. That's my bad.. won't happen again
Why are you even here? Live by the 3, die by the 3. It's pretty when it's living and it's ugly when it's dying. Gordon's foot needs to heal.
Was he out the night before? Regardless the team has been trending down since the start of the new year.
I think we beat the bucks by 15+ tom. The team is going to be pissed after tonight. Only games I'm Worried about is GS which imo is a sure loss if we pull that one out again I'll be surprised and also the Boston game. I think we handle Memphis and the bucks. Ryno will be back I would think and I don't expect Gordon to shoot 1-10 on threes again. Good job Miami they flat out tried and we didn't.
Teams are getting to the basket and outscoring us in the paint. If the threes are not falling the only other thing we do is try to get to the basket (makes us predictable). If a team has a good rim protector and the 3's are not falling we lose that simple. Our defense needs to be better and we need to be more creative on offense when plan A (3's) are not falling.
The funniest ( weirdest?) thing about this game is that we actually came out fairly well . It's not surprising that the only quarter we won was the first.
You're an idiot. Harden did more than necessary but his teammates let him down. Capela did running drills but couldn't keep up with this game? His length to subdue Whiteside and Johnson were sorely needed on the rebounding.
Where's the evidence he actually did this? Might want to be sure before you throw a dude under the bus. I know he's done it in the past but his approach this season has impressed me, honestly the whole team looks burnt out. Morey is screwing the pooch again. That's why I found all the Westbrook 'has a worse team' arguments ****ing hilarious, this team is pretty low on talent once you scrap by Harden, Gordon and maybe a couple of others.
Harden looks REALLY slow these days; Even slower than he used to be, I think his body is breaking down.
You got dirt on Harden malakas? Harden is one of the most durable players in the league *knocks on wood* That doesn't happen by accident. I believe he does take care of his body. Plus, he gets power form sex and debauchery. Let's not upset this delicate balance.
