    Harden gets lazy... when you up 15 .. go midrange and drive .. you will keep lead... missed 3 (4point play) missed 3 (3 point play) missed 3 (3 point play) missed 3 .. (3 at buzzer)

    The typical rockets collapse. Got too comfortable as usual.

    I wont blame the rockets , but i will blame MDA ... coach has to be able to calm his team down ... and if thats not working ... pick up a tech , challenge a play , call a timeout , put in a guy to give a hard foul

    We are one of the worst teams at closing out quarters........couldn't even get Harden rest. Thunder just making bullshit long threes to end quarters as well

    Rivers and McLemore are negatives on court.

    Sometimes Harden just gets tunnelvision & starts jacking 34 footers when he can get way better looks by just getting to the rim

    The Rockets were outscored by 5 the last 90 seconds of the 4th quarter of game 3........

    The Rockets were just outscored by 8 the last 2:30 of the third quarter........

    Complete BS defense the final 6 minutes of the 3rd quarter deserved that. Every mental mistake is getting punished and deservedly so. Play better or go kick rocks.

    The Rockets have to maximize their advantages be more aggressive and stop looking at the refs. The refs are not going to make calls for the Rockets unless they fall behind. Its such a joke we just have to be better despite it

    They sneak in an OKC guy and put him in the broadcast “booth?”
    It’s bad enough that we let them back in it. We also have to listen to a pair of chumps calling the game.
