    We'll never win a Championship as long as the Warriors are stacked.

    Naw man.. I'm a harden supporter and even I saw it. He completely nutted up in the 3rd quarter and the 4th quarter and overtime.. It was so painful. he looked un0bothered.. I'm beside myself.. It was so bad I cant belie it... I just cant.

    This team has too much heart to just lay down and fold at home. This will go to Gm 7. They played hard tonight and were gassed by OT. 7 Man rotation may have bitten us, but these guys are professionals and will find a way to bounce back. We have to beat the Spurs in two straight. Won't be easy, but I believe in this team. Tough L. Optimistic still.

    Glad to see some more sense in here.

    Harden was the only reason we where we are.

    That OT sucked, but it's not all on Harden. No rebounds in OT, poor offense, tired legs

    I blamed Donovan for how Westbrook plays at the end of the game and I'm blaming MDA too. You can't just let your guy just walk the ball up the court and chuck up 3s. That's not going to work.

    pop benches kawhi with no problem. d'antoni just keeps going to james every single play when he's just holding it. i don't care if you're tired, you have to drive at some pont. 1 time! 2 times! come on.

    Dan Tony wanted them to play slow because he only played 7 the whole game.

    Lots of mental mistakes down the stretch. We'll learn from them. Rockets in 7

    I'm okay with this loss.

    There is no better than adversity. Every defeat, every heartbreak, every loss, contains its own seed, its own lesson on how to improve your performance the next time.


    Night fellas. Keep ya head up.

    Rockets still have a chance if Kahwi is out. I think.

    Losing without him is also possible and wouldn't be surprising. Just more embarrassment for the city.

    Go Stros and good new QB play !!

    I know this monumentally sucks ass but please let's be a little objective.

    50% on James 50% on D'Antoni.

    The guy played 7 players & it went to OT, the players were dead. I know, I know, James being tired is no excuse, let Gordon handle it instead of jacking up 3's but D'antoni didn't call a single timeout to draw up a ****ing play.

    Terrible body language at the end. Lack of a leader to reinstate confidence and aggression and get back to the normal game plan. Sub-par, McHale level coaching adjustment at critical time. Sporadic questionable officiating that destroyed our momentum in the 3rd. Look at the eyes of them Spur players; they want it bad.

    Sad.
