    5 point deficit feels like a tie...

    That's the key. Staying calm.

    We need Ryno. 5 quarters finished and we're getting beat by TWolves

    How TF do you shoot that bad?? Like I'm sure some random 40 yr dude at the local gym with a bad hip could shoot the ball better than these so called "professional basketball players"

    Thankfully, no one on the Wolves can take over a game.

    Guys, everyone needs to chill.

    Only down by five, Harden was looking to be aggressive but the Pups played some good D that quarter. Gordon is going to start making those open shots eventually. CP3 looking better.

    Great defense in the first quarter. The sign of a great team is grinding out wins when things just aren't 'clicking'. Have some faith.

    That may be the worst stretch of basketball I have ever seen at any level.

    Rockets will do better.

    Pump fake a few threes, then get to the rim. Get to the FT line.

    Threes will start falling.

    Absolutely...then his nookie ass could brick 35 foot shots...he'd fit right in. He's a joke. Sorry, but I'll be glad when he's gone...if someone will actually take him.

    To be down only 5 after shooting 20% in the first quarter is a minor miracle. These guys gave got to start making shots and free throws.

    Exactly. His best games of the seasom were ones where he was very agressive going to the rim.

    The score isn't the problem. It's the lack of adjustments. We cannot hope to win in the second round playing like this.

    Did Eric Gordon forget how to drive? Wtf happened to this dude? All he does is shoot low percentage deep range 3s. No matter how far you shoot its still 3 points dude.
