    Nene got hurt on that dunk?

    Remember Carlos Delfino? He got hurt on his dunk on KD.

    Lmao Chuck, we beat the Thunder hitting 28% from 3. If the refs actually called fouls for us then we can score with the 3.

    man, I loved how Harden played tonight

    he set the tone and kept us at a good pace for most of the game...no foul hunting, just focusing on getting to the rim and getting buckets

    this is the Harden we need from now on

    It's not Nay-Nay, EJ. It's Na-Nay. The accent is on the second E.

    Chuck "Nene missing games can be huge, he's their most physical big"

    Can't believe Chuck said something not dumb

    Lou really didn't play that well outside of that one 2nd quarter stretch .

    6/15 isn't that great for only 13 points ... And of course pretty bad d/ hustle

    The Nene injury is devastating.

    Luckily their bigs are soft and so are the Warriors so as long as Capela plays smart which is a big if, we should be able to adapt.

    Had this happened against OKC, it would have been close.

    The only other guy who runs to the rim is Montrezl. He's going to have to get minutes if Nene isn't coming back.

    yeah it's always weird when guys get so lackadaisical/sloppy in such important games. just concentrate for 48 minutes. then do whatever the hell you want to. it's not that hard.

    The depussyfication of Ryan ANderson at Toyota Center was a huge factor tonight. I don't expect Ryan, Ariza, Lou and Egoo all to have very good games but Rockets need at the very least 2 of the 4 and preferrably 3 out of these 4 to have good games

    Can't rely on much from Dekker

    Every time the Rockets win the TNT analysis is about what the other team did wrong period every time the Rockets lose the analysis is about how well the other team played. Feels like this National broadcast is an away game every day.

    Brazilian Twitter is devastated about Nene's injury. Nice to see them support their fellow countryman.

    Every team that plays the Rockets is apparently trash except the MVP:rolleyes: candidate.

    I'm not Brazilian and i'm pretty sad for big Nene. The guy was our best bet on Aldridge.

    Great job of keeping up the pressure on them throughout the whole game.

    They need to come out with that same intensity next game. When they play at their own pace, they are tough to stop. One thing I really hope they realized tonight was that THEY control how fast they play. Just because the Spurs make a shot doesn't mean they need to slow it down. ATTACK ATTACK ATTACK... if they do that, they will be in good shape.

    P.S. Anderson desperately needs to show up again next game.

    P.P.S. Harden getting animated and excited on the bench to start the 4th quarter is exactly what he needs to keep doing. He's the engine that drives this train, don't let up... regardless of how the fouls are going.
