    Westbrook has lost his damn mind.

    I measure off everything. Real contending teams don’t have consistently embarrassing halves of basketball or consistently embarrassing defensive performances.

    These are the games we typical lose.

    I'm surprised the other teams haven't doubled Harden from the off, because we look completely hopeless without Harden leading the attack.

    I guess we were due for a Westbrook regression to the mean

    I mean they could have gotten another L against Sactown, those teams always play well against the Rox.

    I haven’t been able to watch, but followed game tracker for a few minutes.

    why is Harden not shooting? Why is WB and everyone else shooting so much??

    Rockets playing at the worst against the worst team in the league on Christmas day is perfect.

    "Curry can't do what Harden can."
    "Kawhi can't do what Harden can."


    But give Steve Kerr/Doc Rivers a semi-G League squad and watch him make chicken salad out of chicken-you-know-what.
    How can they stay competitive without all their stars?
    They don't run everything through one guy. They have a system. They coach.
    Rockets? Hope & pray your spamming of threes goes in and/or Harden goes off. Otherwise, ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Sure he still has Green & Russell but Damion Lee? Wilie Cauley-Stein? Glenn Robinson? Rockets reject Marquese Chriss? Ky Bowman? Jacob Evans? Alec Burks?

    Damion Lee: 22 points 15 rebounds 4 assists 10-10 FT
    Harden: 22 points 11 assists 5 rebounds
    Lee has 2 fewer FT than the Rockets combined
    Lee 1 more FT than Harden & Westbrook combined

    I was just asking D'Antoni through the TV to put in Clemons. He can make shots.

    Harden is chilling at half court drawing in two defenders and the rest of our team, including our $34 million dollar 2-first-round-pick man, couldn't play 4-on-3 basketball. They just look flustered.

    Meanwhile Draymond Green is drilling a 3. OK.

    Haha the cancerous Rockets are going to get embarrassed by the Warriors yet again, and then make excuses like "we gotta figure out a g-league team's defense" like they haven't seen these defenses a hundred times already.

    When is baseball season. We are 1st round fodder. Maybe second round if our first round opponent suffers an injury. What a piss poor joke. Shoot 3’s but don’t have any good 3 point shooters. That makes as much sense as a football bat.
