    This is one of the more pro-Rockets studio panels out there. I hope the Rockets gives them something to cheer for.

    He’s playing smart. Guys have it going and he’s not forcing things. I’m sure he’ll be a little more aggressive. That said, keep everyone involved, especially if it’s working.

    Makes no sense not to. Not like harden is like taking the ball to get a head start for a sprint. He usually just walks it up anyways

    So, Rockets' defense was just fluky in the first quarter? There's no way any team scores 41 in a quarter when the other team does a good job contesting.

    When I thought rockets bench production was bad. Raptors got 1 rebound from a bench player!?

    Lmao!

    They are just in cruise control. They'll be fine.

    harden gotta just keep driving. they are playing him super close on the perimeter and not giving him too much space.

    sometimes you don't need to force stepbacks, take the lane, get to the rim, draw fouls, and use the floater. you can still get 30+ that way.

    Yeah, but to suggest not bringing back Harden when Toronto is bringing back it's starters is ridiculous. The bench did great, but they are there to rest Harden. How long were they supposed to sit Harden in the 2nd?

    Yep outscored 35-22 since he came back. Mda never sticks with hot hand or unit. He sticks with his rotations no matter what. That was perfect time to give harden much needed rest. To me hes truly a bad coach
