    How was Jones not instructed to guard the inbound to the 3 point shooter? oh wait, Mchale

    Why did they put Jones on the ball after they had Howard on it before?

    Well, it's kind of fitting if this season has to end. Weird coaching and bad defense.

    Definitely the effort was there and our guys fought. Especially Dwight in the fourth quarter -- he was truly a man among boys.

    And kudos to Harden for a great game too.

    Wow, I'll always feel like we wasted an amazing series from Dwight Howard. Just wasted it.

    I don't know what to say.. This's been a good playoff series. I think this type of defeat will really leave a bad taste in our players mouth and I hope we come back more focused next season. It's going to be a long long long 5 months...

    What a complete and epic choke job by this team. Entered the fourth quarter leading in, what, five of the six games? Gag. Hope this burns them all offseason and they come back motivated this fall but I just don't see it.

    Feel bad for Howard. He deserved better.

    We had a foul to give. Take away the 3.

    If I'm not mistaken, the Blazers ran a similar play late in regulation in Game 1 where Lillard lost Bev(who slipped on the play) and hit a 3 to tie it. So really the series was lost you could argue on that exact same play. The Rockets blew two games by not defending that.

    Harden should have helped, I think. Just bad team defense.

    Tough loss. This will go down as one of the greatest shots in playoff history. Congrats to Lillard and the Blazers.
