    I was scratching my head at that one too. How many guards do we need on this team????? Why oh why were Wiltjer and Onuaku in street clothes?????

    Gordon in the starting line up must happen.

    Onuaku, I believe is serving out some game suspensions for pushing a ref in the D-League and not sure about Wiltjer.

    and it was only 8 with 3 minutes to go. unbelievable. simplest answer is i think it's just that the spurs never foul anybody. ever. that must be it. somehow they averaged giving up 21 a game in the regular season, but when they play the highest ft shooting team in the league, they just chop about 40% off of that number. makes perfect sense.

    Harden was 10-18 overall, 4-11 from three.

    So he was 6-7 from two.

    He needs to shoot more twos.

    Ryno had 13 points and 4 rebounds and we are all ecstatic that he finally had a good home game.....

    We must steal game 5 and figure out a way to win even at the Spurs pace.

    Great game. Rockets controlled the pace from the jump, played with effort, and shot well. Tough break with Nene getting injured. It doesn't look good.

    I'm very happy with the win. Gordon was just awesome. I'm skeptical that we can win on the road without Nene. It's a big blow for us.

    Not sure why D'antoni didn't play Harrell when Nene went down. We need the inside pick n roll game to win the series and Capella isn't enough. Our 3s will not always fall each game...

    The hate for Anderson is unrestrained on clutchfans.net. You can never truly be happy for this guy. clutchfans will hate him forever.

    Is he eligible? On the bench? Last I heard he was suspended.
