    Moral victory: At least the Nuggets didn't get to stick 90 on them in one half.

    Missing Capela obviously hurts but the Rockets need to work harder to offset their lack of size and they're just not doing it. Teams are consistently outworking them.

    Games like these happened when we had cp3 in the lineup earlier in the season. Harden and the rest of the rockets handled the nuggets just fine in Houston

    Leave it, alot of people dont watch the other side of the ball, so they just find a scapegoat to explain why we are losing.

    Watch the game and make logical judgement. This is like thinking you only get tired because the sun goes down.

    I have come to the conclusion that we suck and any move at the trade deadline will not make us a contender

    Play defense in the second half as if your life depended on it, Tonya Hardin style.

    Even when he is "in" he's "out". I hate seeing him on the court.

    This gimmick defense is not working. Can we not switch on every play?

    Taking two shots in a half isn't enough?

    Switch CP3 to the corner, need to make em pay for that quick double on Harden with EG or Green in the slot just catch and shoot or go straight to the rim.

    CP3 prove us you worth 20m per season at least.

    I am simply shocked that more teams dont double him from the onset to just limit his shot attempts.

    Limit his shot attempts and let others (most of whom are scrubs) beat you.

    To be fair. Denver made literally every shot. Contested or not.
