    Harden putting on a clinic distributing the ball right now. Getting everyone into their spots so perfectly.

    Good start, let's keep it going Rockets!

    Awesome passing and on point shooting again, we're locked in! But what was that play with 0.8, you can get an alley-oop attempts or something...

    i'll never understand not shooting at the end of the quarter. is jeff green protecting his precious playoff 3pt fg%? did you really think you were throwing it back to RoCo in 0.8 seconds. it's literally a chance at 3 free points.

    Great, great, great defensive adjustment! Who's calling it?!? OKC obviously hunted Ben McLemore. He's the worst defender on the perimeter (well, overall too) and on that last posession, Rockets zoned up behind and hedged Austin Rivers over to help McLemore in case CP3 beat him. 24 second violation. Beautiful adjustment. They never made this adjustment all year and just allowed McLemore to get beat and work after it.

    Rockets have more makes from 3 than Thunder have attempts.

    And shooting 50%.

    Edit: oh ****

    CP knows in his heart they have no chance he’s seen what harden is capable of on the nightly basis. He doesn’t look nearly as confident as he did when he was playing alongside him.

    Like every other part of his game, Gordon is streaky. Sometimes he's great, sometimes he can't even make a layup. I trust Rivers more than Gordon when it comes to handling the ball.
