    It was a good fought game. The bench came up and play. And im not liking Harden right now. Him and Lin should show up next game. I don't want a sweep.

    Hard loss to suckin wind after that.
    Man! Durant's shot wow!
    ...now I guess even a few fTs per game are the difference bc we have a 2-1 lead if we make our FTs past two games, or even one of those many rim outs.

    Ahhh the what ifs!? Man this team is so exciting, but OKC is the best team in the L with the second best player. Tough loss great comeback, just wasn't meant to be.

    Can we win game 4 and 5 and put the pressure back on them? Maybe! We have really "lost" the games ourselves bc of bad or unfortunate plays that happened. Wow and Joey Crawford techs that he called, and the fouls he have KD man oh man I could go on & on, but great play by the ROCKETS!
    Whata comeback. Great D in the 2nd half! Moral win.

    The Houston Rockets are the future! Just we have to play OKC our first time in the playoffs man oh man! I'm so sad, after being so excited, until the **** that "bounced its way in."

    Many fouls missed. kD got all the calls. Joey Crawford was the 6th man of the game for sure!

    Harden kinda choked at the end. Hope we get the next one.

    That last 3pt shot by Durant that bounced so high and then come down and roll it in is pure luck. I never seen a ball that bounce that high and still go in...that was so damm lucky man. We didn't help by not making FREE THROWS. How can Harden missed 2 Free Throws in a row and turnover twice under crucial moment?? OMG...that was pathetic. I never seen Harden choke....but that does look like it.

    That last play is on mchale Garcia had the hot hand and he calls the play for delfino no way that play was for harden the way he just gave it up so quick that was the play drawn and it wasn't executed but still that play should of been for Garcia

    Harden killed our movement and transition offense with his sticky ball ISOs.

    Harden can't be your primary ballhandler down the stetch

    Why not let Garcia take the last shot instead of Delfino?

    Agreed. He's choked more than been clutch this season but I don't blame him because they should be executing set plays. I feel the end game strategy is just get the ball to Harden and let him create something.

    With no Westbrook. Enjoyed the huge comeback, but we're far from competing with the likes of OKC.

    How are you blaming Lin? dude was injured, but toughed it out, was ineffective, so he got taken off. We SUCKED down the stretch. In critical moments we made dumbass plays

    Jesus you guys crying about Harden don't deserve to have him on the team. It's been how long since we've been in the playoffs? We finally have a young star and everyone bashes him. It's very pathetic. This TEAM lost not Harden the TEAM
