    Now I see where Harden learned the dominate the ball at the top of the key then dish it off to a teammate with 3 seconds left. Learned it from KD.

    Brooks was penetrating all game long. If we can keep this up and have somebody else on durant I think we'll be good.

    If he played for the rockets and acted like that, I'd love him even more for it. But because he is on the other team it pisses us off

    Rockets can't make threes, so they decide to completely abandon attacking the rim and shoot even more threes. Good logic.

    Do you guys have the number to the Rox dressing room so I can call McHale and remind him that it is OK to double team Durant?

    I'm just saying he's doing things that I see JR Smith doing. There's playing like a punk (JR Smith) and then there's playing with good sportsmanship. Based on Durant's body language, he's acting like a punk.

    Garcia was excellent on both ends. You would think some doubles would come at some stage. We know the others can make shots but at least see if they are on tonight because we know KD is.

    It could be worse I guess, but we got punked from jump. Rockets had no intensity. I can't watch this complete lack of defense much longer.

    Durant would be averaging 38 without Westbrook
