    You kidding right? But If he fouls out, it actually meant he made some efforts on defense.

    Let Aldridge shoot that midrange jumper. If he hits at a sub 50% clip we should be able to get the rebound and even it out. Hopefully the refs decide to quit blowing the Blazers.

    Wow. Another horribly officiated game. I guess I shouldn't be surprised, though. No free throws... smh

    I would have expected the Blazers to come out lazy on 420.

    Mainly box out, stop giving up offensive rebounds, stop fouling, more ball movement.

    They might be calling it decent for some but if the refs were equal in calls we would not be having a close game

    With that ineffective efforts by the two superstars, Rockets just fool themselves not to play with urgency!

    But will we have more of the same crap in the 2nd half? That's what I'm afraid of. It's hard to play 5-on-8 for 48 minutes.

    Here's the thing about them going after Harden on defense.

    How about putting Harden on a non-offensive option like Batum? Matthews is their 2nd option (interchangable with Lillard).

    I'm not worried about free throws or Harden's offense. It's a long series, both will come around sooner or later.

    Harden's defense and defensive rebounding are the major concerns so far, but we've got a lead after a pretty weak first half so I think things are looking up.

    Charles, on Shaq's eye on Howard: "It's because he hates him."
