    We've actually been playing pretty well . A little bit tentative , but if we can shake that off we'll be fine

    Harden's three is seriously broken.

    James can go to the hoop like that every time if he wants...

    Attack the hole, get to the line, that'll help him get his shot in a rythym

    A fine start, not bad but ok.

    OKC is in trouble if Semaj Christon stays on the floor.

    Well, Nene and Bev seem to be the only ones who remembered to screw their heads on straight before the game.

    That said, that could have gone a lot worse. Plenty of time to dominate.

    I ain't worried

    OKC can't keep shooting 50% from 3. OKC 50% from 3 about 48% FG% and still onlt leading by 2. Meanwhile Rockets 20% from 3

    Good signs

    As suspected can't rely on 3 pointers in the playoffs.

    Harden started off bad but he adjusted, Lou Will & Gordon, grow some balls.

    Harden isn't a good shooter but he gets hot and then becomes unstoppable for like a few mins per game. It's why he was such a great bench player.

    I wouldn't worry too much about it unless he's still airballing shots in the 4th qtr. It's also always in the 2nd half he gets hot.

    Harden's broken jump shot is making him do layups drills on OKC, good sign imo, **** the three

    OKC is shooting 50% from 3 and the Rockets are shooting 20%. Assuming that trend doesn't continue, we should be ok.

    i also vote lou as being clearly fouled on that one jumper. it was a straight up block, not a typical lou BS drawing a foul kind of contact.
