    Its fine, I wont blame you, lol all that crap has to be annoying either way haha. I'm not expecting a win here unless we shoot well because I KNOW WE CANT EXPECT ANY DEFENSE. I'm just waiting to see what Morey does by the deadline.

    Fully rested Kawhi..... role players will definitely need to step up. I wonder if they will keep Kawhi on him all game.

    James is gonna have to start rebounding more I guess.

    Like, that's ridiculous. Either Harden has to do even more work or some of these dudes just have to box out. There is no reason why Harden should have been our best rebounder last night, either that or he's gonna have to do that more, otherwise we are gonna lose.

    to be fair when other teams run PNR involving Harden's man, Harden switches to the big man and our big is on the perimeter. Harden is usually always on the block inside on defense unless his man wasn't involved in the play

    I dont want to criticize James, love the guy. My fav(or second fav) player in the league. But if he can do it he should, we are getting killed on the glass, he has to box out more, other wise we will lose. You even saw in the second half, once we got the boards we took control. We need to better at rebounding....And yet again Harden is tasked with something else haha.

    Kyle Lowry, who is struggling from 3 point land, will all of a sudden get his 3 point shot back. This always happens against the Rockets. Struggling players ALWAYS get their mojo back when they play the Rockets. Then the next game they're back to struggling.

    It's ****ing mind boggling.

    Considering the circumstances with these two teams, I do not expect a Rockets win.

    BUT, if Harden CAN pull off a win versus Kawhi and the Raptors.....there better be some BIIIIIIG talk about it.

    And it was after a home loss to the Raptors. Hopefully history doesn't repeat itself too much.

    Sit Harden as well. Let Gordon take 20 shots to find his rhythm. Let Hartenstein get some time. Let's take the loss, let the beard get some rest and head into Sunday.

    Harden is good because he gets switches that he wants. If Kawhi is defending Harden all game, something is not adding up.
