    I didn't start watching until about 5 min left in the 4th quarter and all i saw was one harden iso after the next.

    And Lin couldn't fight his way through those Cousins screens to save his life.

    His laziness and unwillingness to play defense give up more points, damage teammates' effort in defense, and poison the team chemistry. This is why garbage teams always have players with good numbers.

    Yeah, give Harden the last 3-point shot, his 30% is much better than Lin's 38%.

    Thanks for ruining the end of the year Harden. Can't believe Harden took the last 6 shots without passing the ball to anyone. He's more selfish than Kobe, at least Kobe passed it to Shaq.

    Well, I'm about out of excuses for losing to crappy teams. Anyone else got some to hold me over until the season's over and I can restock?

    Harden doesn't play any defense and is extremely careless with the ball always turning it over.

    Bad decision making and Isaiah Thomas carried them in the fourth.

    More like the three...when the Kings came back it was because the team just decided to once again...chuck up threes.

    Everyone is just content with it, I doubt it will ever change this season because no one seems to realize that at times the only thing we do is pass the ball around the 3 point line and shoot threes.

    What a crappy way to end a game. James Harden still doesn't get it. What a liability.

    Let me see... stuff that cost us this game.

    Lack of defensive effort by Harden in the first half.
    McHale left Parsons and Lin out WAY too long into the 4th quarter. Waited until the lead was gone and it was a tie game.
    3 bonehead plays by Harden at the end. Heat check 3, TO on charge, and losing the ball to a DMC steal.
    Lack of post up touches for Dwight in the 2nd half (see Hero ball).

    What an utter waste of a generally good game by most of the team.

    Rockets need a new Coach I will keep beating that drum till Morey hears it in his sleep. And just for you antu-knee jerkers, I also will say this after a win.

    why not fire McHale? Is there any reason to let him coach this team?

    Doesn't matter if we beat the Heat... and then lose to the Bucks.

    A W is a W and an L is an L.

    They don't seem to understand this year...

    Harden's fault again but can we all just blame Lin and have a Happy New Year.
