    But it's also a kind of silly thing for him to say ... you can't guarantee you're going to make three-point shots.

    Another strange, and somewhat lifeless start. OKC continues to play hard

    Agreed. Ariza and Anderson are giving us nothing. Starting slow every time.

    I'm tried of hearing "Rockets playing like **** and we're only down 8!".

    We've played like **** for 3 straight games, maybe it's time we DON'T play like ****.

    Harden is not a good leader, MDA isn't a good leader either. Team coming out poorly is a reflection of those two. Both are too laid back and show inconsistent urgency. This is the playoffs! You gotta want it!

    Not exactly got a rhythm going yet have we..... Consolation is that we've played this bad but we're still in touch. Wake up boys.

    The only thing holding the Rockets back is effort. They look like they don't even want to play and it literally pisses me and i'm pretty sure everyone off. They look disinterested the first 2 quarters then in the second half they actually start to care.

    Rockets have been cruising since the new year. Losing to sub .500 teams, playing hard only when they feel like it. Now it's coming back to bite them in the ass.

    I know it, he would keep Adams out of the paint...but that ship has sailed...what we need is Harden to give a FLYING **** and stop talking about it, and start efforting it.

    It is annoying to hear that.

    That's not a good excuse to hear.

    However hearing "Game over" in the first two minutes of a game gets rather annoying too.

    OKC gameplan on defense is legit today. Great coaching . Take away the 3 and fall back once ballhander steps inside the 3pt line
