    This game feels no different than any of the other 4 games..... Rockets keep turning the ball over and Harden keeps sucking..... This formula = they come back and beat us........ Not confident....

    And call me a kneejerk, but you can't say that Harden has yet to show up for so many games in our playoff history

    Who would Harden be? Jared Jeffries?

    Can't complain about the first half aside from the refs taking Howard out of the game. But we have a nice lead going into the half.

    Harden played defense for most of the first half outside of like 3-4 plays.

    People act like a player has never been beat on a back door screen before.

    Rockets held Portland scoreless for the first 6 minutes. Then we let them score 21 points in the last 6 minutes. Fck.

    I wonder if Harden's ankles or knees bothering him... maybe shin splints

    Lin inexplicably showed up today, but we just can't put away Portland. Unfortunately this seems like another game where we'll have the game stolen from us.

    This entire time I was upset at Lin and now I realize alot of it is not his fault....

    The problem is McHale who doesn't understand Lin... Lin is a spurt player, he has good spurts and bad spurts. Play him when he's on his good spurt, but bench him when he starts to hit his bad spurts...

    Lin is not the type of player that can play thru his bad spurts so bench him and let him get his head together.

    Wrong forum for that announcement. This is the Lin hater forum not Harden hater. Go join the Clips owner for the black race hate. Not here.

    Ha said the same thing, he needs to shots late in the game to redeem himself.
    You know Harden is not showing up.

    Poor James, must have had his talent stolen by the Monstars.

    If he ever really gets it going, again, we should be able to take care of Port.
