    Not expecting Harden to have an off night is ridiculous. This team desperately needs another playmaker and scorer. Needs Dragic at all costs.

    Rockets have 3 starters shooting below 40%

    What the **** is going on??? Dwight is getting dunked on by Omer. Holiday is swatting everybodys ****. Where the hell is the defense? Ariza cant hit the broad side of a barn. Smith thinks he's Ray Allen.

    FREE PAPANIKOLAO AND CANAAN! Why in the world would you tamper with a rotation that had the team at 20-6 or whatever it was. The offense looks like **** ever since Smith was 'acquired'.

    Effort is there but even Harden is playing like his has **** for brains. 5 turnovers plus one contested three quarter alleyoop attempt to Dwight.

    If Poppovich was coaching this team... There wouldn't be a single starter on the court to start the 3rd.

    Whenever you are perplexed about why this team is going against basic logic and reason there is always one go to sure fire answer that 9/10 times will be correct:Mchale.

    You would think they would show more pride and want to start the new year well.

    They look hungover. Only DMo was doing well and not making mistakes. McHale should get the end of the bench in.

    So can we continue the Rockets tradition of backup point guards taking over the starting job?

    Lowry over Brooks
    Dragic over Lowry
    Lin (since we signed him over Gogi) over Dragic
    Beverley over Lin
    Canaan over Beverley.

    Lol Mcfail doesn't believe in accountability.

    List of Mcfail excuses:
    1)players
    2)assistants leaving
    3)not enough depth

    Guy always has an excuse.

    I don't think the team can win a champion if Howard is in the team
    If trade Howard for Asik, I think we can win

    narrow minded people always look for the easy excuse and not at circumstances. the Pistons will probably lose 15 of the next 20 and we won't hear people saying they are better without him

    The rockets struggle with anyone who is deep at forward.

    That's because they rely on sheer talent to beat other ones and have never developed any sort of BB IQ.

    The organization hasn't learned how to beat a fronting defense in two decades.

    5 free throws and 17 three point shots. Only 21 points in the paint.

    Take the ball to the damn basket! Sad that the only one capable of that is Harden.
