    THE CLIPPERS ARE SHOOTING 60% FROM THE FIELD

    This is f****ing comical at this point.

    Reggie’s been licking Lou’s nuts all night doesn’t he know he is one of the streakiest shooters in the league? Reality will set in where he’s really bad for a few weeks

    I don't know if it's our offense, their defense (which seems strange btw since they're playing two putrid defenders like Teodosic and Lou, also zero rim protection) or both but yeah, their defense looks better than our own...ugh.

    Cp3 needs to take over. Clippers playing with more heart and effort.

    No wonder we haven't been able to beat the Warriors or the Spurs in the playoffs. They just shut down Harden and this team is ****ed.

    Clippers playing tough defense on him like they did against Harden. Doc coaching his guards well.

    the rockets almost always get out hustled.

    they win purely off skill and finesse. not grit and toughness.

    Maybe he was too good for D'antonis system and Morey-ball.

    The clippers are playing as a team we are standing around, no movement at all.

    The better team tonight is winning.

    Ryno is not even good on the road anymore. Just not good regardless of where he plays.

    The Rockets’ problem is the league has adjusted the crowding the 3pt line and the Rockets are hesitant to shoot. This is counter to how they were playing out of the gate.

    Capela apparently has regressed as well.

    Very questionable rotations throughout the game.

    Our defense is just absolutely pathetic. It's not NBA caliber.
