    All we gotta do is lose the 4th quarter by a couple of points then we win.

    So just the first quarter is what is holding us back from being up double digits

    Don't want him chucking at the expense of the team though. A lot of his shots tonight have been rushed and bad.

    CP3 is limping a little, might've aggravated his leg....more reason for D'Antoni to watch his minutes extremely close. Also why sleep walking through trash games like this is so damaging. You can't put yourself in a position where you have to play CP and James 38 minutes each just to beat a depleted Heat squad.

    If you we can do 50% to 60% shooting in the 4th we should win easily. If we were paying 30% better this would be a 20 point blow out but we have not been playing much better than they are.

    Only 71pts in 3 quarters?
    This is not Rockets basketball.

    I haven't seen a player on two pretty athletic teams, Miami and GS, be able to stay in front of Gordon off the dribble.

    It is insane how good his first step is. No wonder he was drafted so highly. This guy needs to penetrate every time until th defense adjusts to it. Andby then the Rockets offense has more options for it.

    Please bench Eric Gordon until he realizes he sucks at shooting and is good at driving.
