    We defend way too high and it leaves the paint open for cutters and easy baskets underneath

    does anyone else get annoyed by how Harden just nonchalantly decides to take a pull-up three in front of a 7-footer? Look, you're no Steph Curry, so stop doing that. It's more or less a wasted possession

    If the Rockets would just out hustle the other team the missed shots wouldnt matter that much.. they look so slow.

    There have been a couple rebounds they have let bounce while everyone is looking.

    Are we really talking MVP? Didn't it just turn into November? There should be a mute button for the crowd if they do it before January 1st. - JVG

    Can we please take something other then a pull up three or a one pass to a three? It's hard to watch.

    watching porzingus makes me think of what Yao Ming might've been if he was 7"3 instead of 7'6

    I'm glad they're shooting themselves in the foot. I've been saying that there is something fundamentally wrong with how we play, and I think it's just a matter of time before the whole organization realizes this

    Why are they out of sync?

    Different personnel. No secondary ball-handler. They got Chris Paul but lost a lot too. Lou Williams, Patrick Beverley was a good player to compliment Harden. They lost some perimeter skill. You take out that perimeter skill + Chris Paul, they don't have it on the floor. They can't spread you out the same way (with Tucker & Mbah a Moute).
