    Now Miami's hitting everything just to pour more salt in the wound.

    This on Harden. You can't take a passive mindset right after CP goes down. He's shown zero aggression this game. None.

    without Paul, no leadership. They quit in second half.

    Morey likes basketball midgets.

    We cant grab rebound because we are short.

    You can blame bb Jesus ....

    But when you have a coach that runs 33 year olds for consistently heavy minutes **** will start to happen ... either players will be tired and legs will go , or they will get hurt .

    PJ has been overworked this entire season . The dude is tough as nails, but a more forward thinking coach would've rested him a game or two already

    I also don't get how as soon as Chris goes out, we basically stop playing on both ends...

    If there’s one thing D’Antoni is pretty dumb at is mismanaging his players minutes It’s like he doesn’t get it. To begin yesterday , harden shouldnt have played 33 plus minutes in a blowout last night, tonight he hasn’t sat up in the second half yet. I think giving your player a breather might boost his energy.

    D'antoni needs to STOP playing guys heavy minutes. Team is already handicapped as is.

    All the Harden haters will be back after this game.

    Anyways, another bad shooting night. And add to that, we're so trash at defending the paint.

    There's honestly no reason to watch the rest, the Rockets are mentally defeated already.

    Just take the L, our players have already given up. We're looking at a really rough stretch of Ls since CP3 can't stay healthy.

    That christmas game against OKC, is gonna kill us in the national spotlight.

    oh yea, our defense has always been bad, even during the win streak. We're 27th in the league right now, it shouldn't be a surprise when our offense isnt going, we're gonna give up a ton of points.

    I love how ****** Morey is tweeting out cryptic tweets everyday instead of actually doing something. Where is the urgency in this organisation? Has Tilman just called it in? "as long as we get that playoff money im satisfied"
