    Is it too late to trade Harden for AD? Even if we win this series how competitive are we in the second round after getting blown out by Wolves lol. #notouryear

    Wolves arent gonna continue shooting 58% from 3 point range. Honestly, nothing you can do when a team is shooting like that. I havent checked, but i'm guessing thats the highest 3 pt percentage for any playoff game this season

    teague/rose/wiggins/butler are 11-17 on 3's. 2 of those guys didn't crack 33.3% and none shot better than 36.8%. and i wouldn't say most of them have been wide open either. certainly not teague's or rose's.

    True that.

    Our players are jogging out there.

    Well, this game was done 10 minutes ago. Let's chuck it to a bad game and get ready for game 4.

    Players need to get mad at themselves because their defense was PUTRID!

    I'm just going to say it again though.

    The Warriors sweeping the Spurs is irrelevant to our series. We know the Wolves are better than the Spurs, so it's not even comparable.

    The 08 Celtics had a 7 game series with the Hawks and won the championship.

    Every series has a life of its own, when a team is shooting over 50% from 3, you're not beating them.

    The Rockets will advance. The Rockets effort today was bad. They felt they would win by just showing up.

    This was a very winnable game.

    Lol
    We’re fine

    To many people in that “what have you done for me lately” mindsets. The rockets will be on fire some time or another and the wolves shooting won’t continue

    Some of you guys need help. I get it, we haven't played pretty the past month, so what, we are going to be 2-1 after this game. Are y'all going to be this ****ing dramatic if we win the next game? A lot of teams have faced adversity through the playoffs, hardly any team will have a Warriors type of run. Playoffs are always a grind. Minnesota was not an 8th seed, health just wasn't on their side to end the season otherwise we'd be playing someone else right now.

    Don't mean to single out your posts, I know there are many others just like yours in this thread.

    Just need to relax.

    All day watching basketball, every single team before us came out and fought their asses off, except us, we came out and a took a giant ****.

    So disappointed in this team, wake up, it’s the god damn playoffs.

    Without a huge turnaround in the games ahead, yes. For years he has had odd "where be my head" playoff performances. He has managed a decent stat line because he usually has a monster game now and then. His overall playoff image is not good and didn't get better tonight. Check out the post right before mine. So true. NO looked fantastic. All the teams went all out, except the Rockets.
