    So your solution is to quit and not try?

    What's good is that the refs are officiating in a way that will actually help Harden come playoff time.

    Point blank broad daylight on good, indeed.

    Remember when Bev got into it with LeBron 2 years back?

    I fear nobody now, cause you gotta mess with Nene.

    It's 2017 not 2012. We did try. Got close but it wasn't enough. A lot of teams can say that, we're not alone.

    It's not a personal hatred of the guy, I understand why a vast majority want to keep him. I'm just not seeing how it gets done with the current roster. I'm not sure we have gained enough ground talent wise to knock GS out. If GS finally hits a patch of bad luck and one of those dudes is rolling around the floor in oracle arena holding their knee, I'd have a better outlook. If Klay or Draymon get in a fight in the locker room and won't hug each other during timeouts, I'd say we have a shot. If Undertaker shows up at TC and knocks Curry out with a metal chair, I think we might get the edge.

    I noticed an improvement, but refs always try to keep us down when it counts. We get on national tv and they suddenly have a personal vendetta against anything Houston.

    Barkley comes every time Tucker gets those rebounds. Tucker is Barkley re-imagined.

    The Cavs shot 56% from the field and 44% from 3pt land.
    The Rox shot 47% from the field and 35% from 3pt land.

    This team grinds.

    45 rebounds to 26 boards
    16 blocks&steals to 10

    I'm 35 son. You don't get to where I am without destroying what tries to stand in your way. I thrive off the hate. Makes me stronger. Bring it. Bring the hate. When you've had enough of James bs, you'll remember this. It's ok, I won't rub it in. I'll give you one of those thumbs up emoticons the kids love.

    I don't give a **** how old you are, but your attitude about yourself is the one you should have for this team. Harden just has to run over his haters like you on his way to a championship and an MVP. Problem solved.

    Slightly off topic but I have a question. I was at yesterday's game and y'all know how they usually present soldiers/veterans from the military during a timeout? From my understanding, it's appropriate to give a standing ovation because they are actively out there trying to protect our freedoms, etc.. I saw a lot of people (not players) sitting whenever they did this. Is this a common thing nowadays with all the stuff going on in the NFL?

    What another great win by our Rockets. Hate that the game was on TNT. Nonetheless Harden is playing out his mind. I also love this aggressive EG. He's attaching the rim relentlessly and shooting the three with so much confidence. Capela all around game has jumped quite a few notches. Tucker was a junk yard dog out there last night. Everyone else played solid.

    What's happening people! Here are my top 5 plays from the game vs the Cavs. There were loads of highlights and it was quite hard to choose one for each so I've bundled up quite a few of them.

    PJ Tucker is slowly becoming one of the favourite players right now. He's bringing that "junkyard Beverley dog" mentality.

    I've also spent the day upping my graphics game watching youtube vids and what not so you'll definitely see a neater difference in the Top 5 now especially with the thumbnail (which I'm really happy about, just look at those bosses!!)

    Anyways enjoy the video guys. Feedback would be very much appreciated. Let me know what you guys think. :D

    Same now that I think about it but Harden's triple double was just too enticing
