    Outstanding final 5 minutes of the game on the defensive end. Great effort. Even Capela was excellent on the switches.

    if you take Gordon's misses out, Houston shot 14-26 from three

    Eric Gordon didn't play that well. Ariza wasn't playing at all. Anderson barely touched the ball. Harden still has some rust on him. BUT WE STILL ****ING WON THAT ****. And that wasn't luck or anything, we took that W and roared while doing it. Great crowd at TC tonight too

    Not as currently constructed. But I think we are close.

    Good win
    We looked good the entire game. With some slow pace in the 3th but our defense was solid and not too many holds or lost assignments. If gordon has been hitting better we would have blow them out. Harden was still rusty but he got us some good shots when we needed it.
    Harden defense was good specially in the end of the 4th.

    Can't believe we won playing terrific defense down the stretch, and with Gordon and Ryan being a no show (to be kind) on offense...what a game.

    Poll: Which feels better?

    A.) Ending the Warriors 14 game road win streak
    B.) Beating the Warriors in 2 out of 3 regular season games
    C.) Both. Because the Rockets just did both. Even though Eric Gordon played more or less on my level out there tonight.

    So Ego and Ryno went 0-fer from 3 tonight...shot beyond horribly....no Ariza and no Green,

    Warriors at full championship strength, Rockets fought hard and beat them....AGAIN.

    Good job Rockets. Ego will find his shot again...will Ryno?

    Great win!

    That was pretty damn nice. Great defense on Thompson all night. Also great defense on Durant, he made a lot of shots but they were all really tough shots.

    Would have been a blowout if Gordon converted an average number of looks (of course I'm sure you could say the same about Klay).
