    Too bad they don't have fight during the game. This is just dumb they let this mediocre clippers team smack them twice and now they want to get mad.

    Okay, I have to admit, this is some funny ****!!! Hahahaha, twitter is gold :)

    That being said, if you do not show any fight during the game, this looks really weak. Why didn't they take care of this on the court then if they're so tough? If you know Blake elbowed your coach, just confront him right away like CP3 kind of did. Get some fire going by getting ejected or a technical! Commit a hard foul, flagrant preferably. In the end this is silly and if we get multiple suspensions, this is going to look even worse. Also it was on MLK day, guess they didn't learn :p

    Beverly is trash honestly. Little bit of defense, horrible on offense

    I know exactly where I’m at. **** the Clippers. This has nothing to do with them. I’m going to call a spade a spade and the Rockets act like a bunch of b****es.

    Bad look for the squad and quite frankly makes them look extremely weak mentally.

    They should be embarrased.

    I think most people missed it... the reason D'antoni was yelling and cussing at Griffin was because Griffin gave D'antoni a little elbow as he ran by him, just before he got the ball and scored the and 1.

    D'antoni was yelling at the refs about the non call for the goal tending... and Blake was pointing at D'antoni for the refs to give him a tech or something, then Blake ran by D'antoni and gave him a slight elbow. You can easily tell because D'antoni immediately shifts and starts yelling at Griffin and the refs.

    That's part of what the Rockets players were so mad about. That's totally unprofessional on Griffin's part, and that's practically taboo to be that disrespectful to another teams coach. That, plus the fact that they felt like the Clippers were acting out some sort of vendetta against CP3 and giving cheap shots, and trash talking all game.

    I'm fine with them standing up for their coach and for each other... but the bottom line is that they got seriously outplayed, out toughed, and out hustled. Rockets still have a ways to go, and they need to get much better all around, if they hope to stand a chance come playoff time.

    Austin Rivers told James Harden to his face that big booty ***ches aren't that great. Heated argument broke out, James Harden furious.

    The Rockets don't have any shooters. We run a 3 point system without 3 point shooters.

    A shooter who constantly goes through slumps isn't much of a shooter. Harden's 3 point % isn't crazy high but he evens his games out a lot better than the others and that is what we need. Consistency.
