    Can’t win them all. Rockets are missing some serious guns from their arsenal. Just one of those nights where they can’t make shots.

    The Warriors win took a lot out of the Rockets namely Harden in particular I would surmise. Gordon at the very least has to come back very soon and help out.

    its not that hard to defend hard, instead of trying to block his shot just interrupt his shooting motion.you know when he's going to take that three.

    I hope so man otherwise that’s just pathetic. Nothing seemed wrong with him and he did come back with 20 seconds left

    This game was lost when MDA put the starters in for the last few minutes of the 2nd quarter. They stunk it up (mainly Harden) and MDA failed to do anything about it. They built up a huge lead and we couldn't come all the way back.

    So.... I knew we'd lose this game. I hoped, but we've been on a great run, ARE injured, and honestly Portland made some RIDICULOUS shots tonight. It was super annoying to watch, but wtvr, time to start a new streak. Hopefully Ego will be back soon.

    We were on a high after that Warriors game. The majority of us were looking forward to this game. It sucks. Going up against the two top records in the league this week, so possibility we lose the next couple of games. Sucks to lose this one.

    Wish Harden got 40. Its amazing how he carried this team by himself for so long, but its not gonna last.

    CP3 and EG need to come back healthy and hopefully not as cold as they were before they got hurt.

    Can't afford to sit him...not while CP3 and EGo are out and a string of losses can easily mean 14th place in the West.

    They were worn out from Thursday. I thought this might happen.

    Sucks to lose this one cause the Blazers are really meh, with a bit more energy and luck (they literally got all the random balls fall in their hands) we could've win this one but, whatever, after the last game it's understandable.
