    They're exploiting the switches and we're not.

    We switch on Minny, Teague punishes Capela or Towns punishes the guard, Dieng switches on Harden? Step back 3, brick. I get it because they're not calling **** on us, but this is why we're losing.

    This is the issue right here.

    We are getting open 3s about every other possession but no one is making them.

    who is this team in red?

    surely this isn't the 65 win team we've seen all year.

    There is NO WAY you can call yourself a Rockets fan after uttering this. Utterly pathetic.

    It looks like the team is rushing their 3 point shots. Jacking them up instead of shooting them fluiding.

    Might be that the Rockets haven't really had to feel a lot of pressure. I think they need to calm down on offense a bit while not losing the intensity at the other end

    i guarantee your fretting will make you feel foolish after this game. lesser teams always give it up at the end. the rockets have got this.

    The Rockets offense looks better with Harden on the bench unfortunately. He better wake the f**k up soon!

    have you realized that this is playoff games now? apparently our players have not sorted it out yet.

    They have a game plan.. We have a system... That's why they've outplayed us thus far this series... We had to steal game 1 on our court...
