    I mean it's easy to scapegoat Russ but the only times we've even been close in this game is when he was out there.

    35 years of watching Rockets basketball.

    Truly embarrassing.

    Fertitta and Morey will go out tomorrow and put up some bullshitt about how they are going to reevaluate the whole roster and how they will get better for next year's championship run. Gulp...

    I'm tired of this double standard...fouls are called differently on Harden then other players.

    I hope this is the death of small ball.

    Tilman has trashed the mid future. It's difficult to start over after what he did.

    Mike dantoni didn’t make one adjustment all year. Fire him as soon as physically possible.

    it should be

    PJ as a small ball C for 82 games while shooting a bunch of threes with low skill scrubs is not the answer

    I believe we have started each half going 1-20 combined.

    His energy is great, but his decision making hurts the team more than helps.

    He ain't Jordan mang, even the latter was obnoxious.

    He was always the Shaq version of Scottie Pippen, so he had to move around to find the best core. He went where the narrative was.

    Haven't watched since game 3, but this sounds like another humiliating playoff exit where we never even gave ourselves a chance to compete, much less win.

    I won't watch a single future playoff game this postseason.


    I'll ask Siri for the scores. But that's it.
