    We’re only down by 29. We can make a run.

    24/7 small ball is never gonna work...it is too taxing over 82 games and 4 rounds of the playoffs...this sh*t needs to end

    get an actual C...our defense was good with Capela in 17-18 and 2nd half of 18-19...our problem was we lost Ariza and Luc and never came close to replacing either one until acquiring Covington...that was the major reason for the defensive decline

    small ball should be your ace in the hole...a lineup u use as part of an adjustment to what the other team is doing...not the main, and only thing, u do

    This embarrassing lost is reminisce of what happened to the Rockets before they won their first championship.

    They have been the worse three pointing team in the bubble for awhile, they are not a good 3 point shooting. They dont play better basketball they play better defense. Our offense isnt our offense because we have a garbage second star.

    I hope they yell at each other in the locker room again. That worked out well after last game.

    57% shooting from 3

    When have they ever done that at this volume?
    Incredible

    In all those years that we lost to the Worriers, at the very least we were competitive, even being up 20 points on them during games.

    This is utter garbage. These players are not deserving on wearing Rockets unis.

    I prefer blowout elimination losses to buzzer-beating elimination losses. I prefer to feel dead inside than to be heartbroken. Lol

    Role players getting massively outplayed. We've missed about a dozen layups

    And Westbrook sucks

    Harden wasn't the reason for the loss tonight but so many embarrassing season ending flameouts by the team during his era here.

    Rockets won't ever win a championship again. Brooklyn and Warriors exist next year man it's over.
