    This is a good run and it’s starting off with D. That said there is now way the Lakers could shoot at the same level

    Even if the Rox can fight back and take the lead I’m not going to feel comfortable until the 4th

    The effort has been good. That makes me happy.

    If we played with this effort all playoffs, OKC would have been out in 5, and this would be a different series.

    Sometimes, he stupidly attacks a good vertical defender with a bad paint shot instead of passing to the cutter or the 3. He needs to make the right play. The plays are there for him to make.

    Has Harden sat at all? Maybe I just missed it.

    Harden...10pts on 4-6 shooting. Now the rest of the team Rockets need to follow.

    We have the talent to compete but need more focus and more adaptability

    Hopefully they keep up the same energy on D & ball movement... whew that was quite a pathetic start, but they seem focused now
