    We need to stay calm and play to our strengths. Remember what we do well and do that. Coach needs to tweak the line up and play big. We are fine.


    I believe do you?

    Still no defense. They aren't even trying to stop anyone

    Cp3 and Harden look like they just going through the motion. The team follow suits. The rockets need more height. The tallest player they got is capella and mello. And I'm not talking about bench players.

    People will continue to drive the narrative that Ariza was a significant loss.

    On national television, down 20, this game is over.

    Have we ever come back from 20 down?

    The defense has absolutely stiffened up a bit . But having such a **** first half has made us vulnerable to mirotic making contested 3's and Moore making step backs over harden

    Seriously though the Pelicans are playing like the Rockets aren't even on the court. What is happening?

    Davis, Randle, Mirotic is a matchup nightmare for us.

    cut this to 10 point or less by the beginning of 4th. We have got a chance.

    Pelicans are a nice team. Holiday doesn’t get the love he deserves, and Randle is a very tough cover.

    I'm about ready to trade Harden and Paul for Mirotic, wtf is wrong with these guys? Do they think they're in the Bahamas?

    1st game of the year... i know we had high expectations but the teams that are humble and hungry prepare in silence off social media.

    Even when you have a hand in their face, they still sink the three. Mirotic hitting everything he puts up
