    Yet again we lose because we have no paint defense. I'm pretty certain we only scored like 38 points in the paint and they had 70.

    Worthless 37 points tonight. I am sorry James but this has to be one of the worst game you played this season.

    Holiday shut Harden down... and our lack of size was exploited inside with Okafor...

    CP3 was a +11 in 26 minutes. The problem was just that -- limited minutes. Better hope he can play more in the playoffs or else we're still relying on Austin Rivers.

    Several reasons, but you can get the theme from these stats:

    Jahlil Okafor: 27 points on 11-15 shooting

    Harden: 11 of 32 shooting (18 threes)

    Pelicans shot 11 percentage points better from the floor.

    MDA has been getting outcoached for a while now. He's just had Harden bail him out. Surely we can come up with something on offense when Harden gets double and triple teams everytime.

    What is it with this philosophy of shooting 3’s if you have a bunch of guys who shoot threes but suck at it

    This gimmick offense might be annoying.. but the defense is worse than this gimmick offense.

    I just don't understand how the Rockets became such a terrible defensive team. They are literally bottom 5, and the worst of all playoff teams. It's a joke.

    If the Rockets could at least be league average then Houston would likely have 5 less losses, and 5 more wins. What do the Rockets need to do in order to improve defensively?

    Anyone else show up? who has shown up every game this season? whos kept this team from being one of the worst in the league?

    He had a bad night. He's human. Why does the rest of the team have bad nights almost every game?
