    Jet lagged, tired, mentally out of it from the funeral and long day. Whole team is f***ed up right now, they're playing about as well as you can expect really. This is probably the toughest game of the season for the Rockets.

    I guess the bad thing is we are down by 12.

    I guess the good thing is we are not down the way we blew the Raptors.

    Harden 0-8 2 TOs got blocked 4x.

    Hope he wakes up in the 2nd half. Same with Jeremy he looks so passive out there. I mean 2 shot attempts? Cmon. Also looking lazy with the passing.

    Maybe he's burning up a lot of energy playing D on Westbrook? At least he's done a decent job containing him for the most part.

    Parsons would have made a world of difference.

    He's played terrific D.

    I thought Westbrook would go for 40 or something.

    Yeah I think Lin is trying to focus his energy on defending Westbrook tonite. But he needs to take more shots ESP when harden is missing shots

    Houston missing too many FTs, unacceptable. Lin, Harden and Asik.

    OKC defense tonight is like Miami's -- only give shots to 3rd, 4th, 5th offensive options and force them to win it for you. so far, that hasn't happened. also lack of good cuts to beat the double teams.

    I'm so proud of this team. They won a game last night, flew into Minnesota late, attended an emotional funeral, flew into OKC, took a day-care-center nap, and are playing their hearts out with exhausted legs. These are classy players we have. And the "fans" are bashing them.

    lin gets double teamed because they know he will make a bad derision under pressure, harden gets double teamed because they dont want him to score.. i dont want a wanna be superstar PG. even a real superstar pg. you dont win with those. we need a serviceable PG who can run the offense and keep his dribble.

    Serviceable PG
    Harden
    Parsons
    MAX Free Agent/Trade
    Asik

    A great PG can play any style of offense.

    Come on guys, Lin has done a great job tonight, he's the reason we aren't down by that much.

    Him and Harden are going to struggle all night because OKC is blitzing them as soon as they cross the half court line. The bigs are always open and they need to step up.

    Lin goes to the Bench = losing by 2
    TD plays 4 min.= losing by 11
