    Soooo let me get this straight

    Boston shoots 54% from 3. Their bench scores 67 points. Harden and CP3 are having an off night shooting.

    Rockets still win. Just wow.

    Boston shoots 55% from downtown AND was even on the boards with us.

    We still won.

    How sweet it is!

    I feel like were really lucky to have come out with a win, but then i think about how good we are and how good teams always find a way to win. It wasn't luck.

    I will take Harden's game all day. Should not have shot the homerun 3 twice but 26 points with 10 assists and 5 steals. Ill take that any day.

    It's like he gets stuck in this mindset that he just HAS to hit a stepback contested 3, even if he's missed the past 7 in a row..

    True. It just seems the loss @ BOS was well-earned though.

    Disappointing game, but I'm happy with winning.

    Streak continues

    Man when they were hitting their jump shots and threes by Morris it seemed every run we made they came back. Then Harden miss a three and glad cp3 got it awesome plays by Ariza too.
    Great win, sweet revenge from last game because they had theis game we stole it back.

    We’ve been making b****es bend the knee for the past month. That was an old fashioned barn burner. I definitely got off.

    Such a bizarre game. Boston's starters struggles, but their bench plays lights out. They got so many breaks and we hardly got any. Harden off for most of the game and CP3 looked disinterested for most of the game. And we still win against an elite team.

    Also, NO MORE JOE JOHNSON!!!

    Harden's threes have no arc towards the end, Boston does a good job of contesting it

    They’ve been winning with defense during this streak and that’s how they won tonight.

    Top 5 defense, two elite playmakers, a plethora of shooters = Championship formula
