    for the three 2-2 tie semifinals this year, all the home team (Raptors/Nuggests) won big yesterday... today is no exception...

    get ready for G6, and hopefully we fight again G7!!!

    We just lack talent. We only won 2 because they shot themselves in the foot the 2 past games.

    he came to set a pick to hunt for a switch, they doubled so Harden has to pass it off

    James need to be more aggressive. He can't take only 2 shots when all his teammates can't buy a bucket.

    I don't understand why Capela is so soft against this team, really disappointed at what he is doing.

    This version of CP3 is not going to get it done. I was severely mistaken in thinking Paul was still elite.

    Rockets lost this game in the first quarter and perhaps the series as well. Work so hard just to give it all away......

    Major difference in the game at this point is Capela. Guy is just not playable at the moment, wtf is he doing. Should be a 6 or 8 point game if he’s even slightly competent.

    GS got everything they wanted. . .able to push without getting called for fouls (which is why we lost a rebound on a free throw)
    They coming over the back . . . .which Clint got a phantom call for
    Phantom travels . . . .. I just don't trust these refs
    but
    The Rockets are only down 14
    and they have not played their best ball

    Pete-King made his mighty return during that run.

    He got paid and now he just wants to catch uncontested lobs or uncontested rebounds. Waste.

    We had plenty of good looks that quarter. They just didnt go in.

    The real problem is the overall intensity. The Warriors are getting way too many good looks on the other end. And when they miss they are getting the rebound because we keep losing focus and allowing them good position.

    We're playing like this game doesnt matter on defense and its pissing me off. I hope Tuck goes off in the huddle here.

    Fried is out for personal reasons. And yes I think Nene should get some minutes.

    No need to panic. Doesn't seem like we are panicking right now which is a good sign - that's when they start jacking up threes and stop defending the paint.

    If Capela cannot outplay Looney . . . he needs to ride the pine
