    harden is hurt so he is facilitating, what is cp3's excuse.. he needs to be aggresive and score the ball

    For a 3 point shooting team I've never actually had much trust for our 3-5 shooters

    Pretty simple, you finally run into a team that can fill it up (or at least tonight) like you can and this is where your DEFENSE can be the difference.

    Closing out softly won't work tonight guys. Play harder.

    **** defense to start the second half. No pressure on shooters.

    Bet Rockets coaching staff spent entire half time telling team how to score.

    Lulz...

    Rockets were down big by a better team with better defense.. Let's see if they can come back again...

    I think we need to be a bit more agressive on defense

    They look kinda tired. Not getting back on D. We need some MBAHATUCKER time. Let the D spark the offense.

    Yeah not being a doubter because we're playing bad or because i'm hating, we won't win this game simply because the Pelicans are having a historic game.

    Can't do **** about it.

    Step under their shooters. Twist a few ankles and win the game.

    Only way to win.

    Pelicans already tied their season high for 3 pointers (16). On 14 less attempts. 16/22

    This is apparently the ass-kicking the team has needed for awhile

    Clint looks like he's going to breeze past his career high in points, and Harden should surpass his career high of 17 assists. Crazy to think those might come in a loss, but here we are...

    you would think their 3 point stroke would fall off at some point
