    This better work. Whatever the hell Silas is doing defensively, that is evidently so difficult that you can’t even teach it and players don’t fundamentally understand it...

    But actually that’s not even the point. The Rockets have no defensive fundamentals other than boxing out.

    And Silas doesn’t care to play his best defenders.

    Yes but its also better than Westbrook's 45 TS% he's been averaging for 5 games.

    Happy New Years to all my fellow Rockets fans

    to the Harden haters and guys who only show up and get active on here when the team is struggling or lost the game, fck u, and I hope u self-loathing “fans” stay miserable in 2021

    Harden struggling in the 1st half had y’all giddy and giggling like school girls...unfortunately for u, Harden finished with 33 in a Rockets WIN...your tears taste good this New Years Eve

    He has a bright career ahead of him doing radio commercials when his playing days are over.

    He will settle in. 2.5 years off brings them butterflies, even with public speaking to a new fanbase. His game will be nice

    good win, although couple things to note.
    1) wall shooting 8 threes will not cut it against good teams. At this point doesnt mean much, since its his first game back in like 2 years, maybe he didnt really have legs to try something different, so i dont really want to read too much into it, but its something to keep an eye on.
    2) Every bigman that goes against our front line are having good nights. Our interior defense sucks.
    3) Happy new years, may 2021 be better than 2020 ( low expectations xD )

    I think John Wall was just out of breath from finishing the game.. He never talked that fast in any of his interviews or press conferences

    Lol @ the excuses constantly made for wall. If WB had the exact same stat line you would all bash and blame him. With wall for some reason he sh!ts gold. It makes no sense.

    Spouse said, what did he say? lol That is the east coast voice. Texans are a little laid back on their speech. My ears need exercising to understand Wall.

    There’s a lot of work to be done but a lot of potential. I really like the build of this team and can see them gelling and going on a massive run in the 2nd half of the season. Hang on tight to Harden.

    Nice win, but we still got a lot of work to do. This game will give coach Silas a bunch to break down...
