    This one is 1000000% on Mchale if we lose tonight. The fact that they still won't respect Aldridge is nothing short of baffling to me.

    I'm convinced playing at home favors the road team even with the crowd noise.

    I'm also really impressed by the Blazers. I think they may be better than us. They are just playing a better brand of basketball. Rockets are up and down...all over the place.

    Wow we played about as good as we can offensively (except Harden and Parson) and yet we can't pull away when we get up on them and the phantom LMA calls keep coming by the bucket full.... If I were a cynic, I would swear it would appear that the NBA favors the Blazers to move on in this series. I think McHale has got to try getting the ball out of LMAs hands and even doubling Lillard at times and making someone else (Matthews, Batum, Wright, Lopez) beat us. Scary how they are still in this game and yet we are playing as well as we have on O and D...

    They always say that if you are aggressive you get the calls...that's not the case tonight is it?

    I agree. Parsons is way over his head. He isn't even close to Batum.

    Howard has gotten more contact in the first quarter, yet only got one and-1 on Lopez, when Lopez should have fouled out.

    Breathe on LMA and it's a foul on Asik.

    Refs just aren't allowing the Rockets to play defense on LMA. He's getting every single touch call. So frustrating

    im kinda gonna defend mchale. Aldridge has made some really tough jump shots some even lucky. 90% of his buckets have been jumpers not layups like last game

    This absolutely true. The only excuse the rockets make is that "They shootedZ the most innefficentiZ shotZ in basketball durr!!"

    The blazers are running an offense.
