    Rockets get close but can't get over the hump because they are not defending and rebounding consistently, so obviously no adjustments were made from the first half.

    Classic game we never win. Maybe we'll try (and fail) to come back late in the 4th but yeah...we look soft.

    watching Ryno drain 3's at halftime was somewhat enraging.

    harden not going well so ego contributes a terrible pass TO and lou forces an ugly 18 footer. someone has to step up for a team to win. right now everybody sucks about equally.

    Rockets in a nutshell tonight.......People that can't effectively pass trying to be playmakers... Our playmaker cant make the effective passes to people.

    Westbrook has more heart that's why he will hit a big three Ryan Anderson has to grow some nuts

    that was pretty hilarious. even after gibson passed it away, he still just hung out in the paint for a few more seconds.

    Guys hesitate like none other. Ariza has especially been hesitant. He's had some success going inside, but he showing signs of carelessness. Id rather he miss a 3pt attempt than go inside and try to shuffle pass to Nene directly under the basket.
