    Im really Optimistic after that game to me seems like the rockets just need to get back to the system(more 3s, tell melo to stop think n just shoot 3s) things look fixable will to me. Even the d played with more intensity late.

    Not that I should be surprised but ESPN Countdown are such a joke. Nothing but Lakers, Lakers, Lakers.

    Finally Pierce says this game was about the Rockets.

    Gotta disagree wth you there .

    Harden was playing really solid all game . The only thing he did was be a bit too aggressive on those long passes . But he was picking the defense apart any time they doubled him and was solid on D

    I'd like to see Carmelo be a bigger part of the offense besides just catching and shooting contested 3's.

    I'd like to see a few midrange plays run for him in every game.

    I am calling BALONEY. I was referring to acting, speaking lines with the proper inflection. Supposedly the film industry is one of the main reasons LeBron is in LA. Besides dumping huge sums into projects, I don't see him being successful in the film industry. We shall see. He might not even be all that great on the Lakers.

    Yeah the passes is what I'm talking about. I know this is who Harden is, but those crazy passes came at a time when all he had to do was get a shot. The game was within 2-6 when he was just throwing the ball around.

    welp. I just wanted to watch some cp & harden in crunchtime. Oh well.

    I'd post general observations about the game, but my anger at Ingram and Rondo is preventing me from thinking straight.

    Rondo has never been on the same level as cp. Let's just make this very clear. Ingram was frustrated cuz he got bodied on the foul which should have been an and-one. We're fortunate Harden stopped making bad decisions (though he had a great first half) and sealed the win for us. I hope it's only a one game suspension for cp. Though I'll still be sad cuz i wanted him to have a great game against the clippers.
