    Here is an interesting idea: don't let any player have a wide open shot at the end of the quarter.

    That had little to do with time left on the clock and a lot to do with lazy ass defense.

    Williams and Nene back pedal so Simmons can pull up undefended. No one slowed the ball coming down the court. Outright stupid team, being out worked again.

    Hoping Rockets can play with poise and intensity this quarter. If they do that they win going away.

    Thought in basketball you were taught to stop the dribbler? Why is it on every fasbreak players just let the shooter get his shot!?

    Ryno is glued to the bench and finally the offense shows signs of life.

    No way will they sweep us. It would be an entirely different pace of play for one thing.

    That wasn't a lucky play by Simmons. That's us not being contenders down to a tee. It's the end of the third quarter in the second round of the playoffs and you cut the lead by three, and just relax and not D up for the final possession.
    WOW I AM SO ANGRY haha

    Really? Do you guys watch or play basketball at all? He had a wide open lane and you want him to pull it back? Blame the shitty transition D, not the great offensive play.
