    Reading through the older first quarter posts of this thread while we are up by 13 is pretty funny

    But CP3 showed up(a little) and Gerald Green has been lights out. As long as a few other players have good performances and we play solid D(which we are tonight), the Rockets are very tough to beat. Especially at home.

    Harden is shooting poorly but he's being aggressive. Do not confuse this with a Game 6 vs Spurs game. He's rimming out threes and already attempted 8 free throws.

    Rockets aren't playing that well. If it wasn't for the defense of Nene, the playmaking of CP, and the shooting from GG, Rockets would be in trouble.

    I'm relived the Rockets aren't even at their final form and are still winning.

    I need them to pick it up though.

    It was a pretty bad first quarter. Any fan base would have the same reaction.

    Yup. This is why during game one I said it, and I'll say it again now. Stop associating "Bad shooting performances." with "Not caring about the game." It's idiotic, don't be that guy.

    James has to use Chris Paul when hes on the floor. My favorite thing about Cp3 as a point guard is he allows his teammates like Gerald Green to create shots for themselves. James be playing myplayer sometimes. Pass the ball and move around for a open shot. It has to be tiring to have create all of your own scoring opportunities.
