    Smith and the bench were major positives tonight.

    It's the starting lineup with Dwight that has looked shaky all year...

    Beverley has his own agenda. He's in contract year. He's been forcing some shots. Don't like it.

    Last years Beverley would be worth more contract-wise.

    early in the season, but still you can't win them all

    just keep working on getting better

    some nights you just have to bow your head and say well done to the other team

    I don't know what they are doing to poor Papa.

    He plays one game and the next he doesn't. Not sure how much he helps out tonight though as the bench wasn't really the problem.

    Yeah perimeter D was the big reason for the loss. I think people are talking about playmaking because Bev really sucked tonight and I think people (including myself) want to see him replaced.

    I'm really not sweating this loss. I'm really just eager to see how Rockets play against a team that they really have trouble with. Will brewer and smith do well against OKC? That's all I want to see.

    I hate how mchale rest harden until like 8 minutes left in the 4th. I wish he would bench him around the 3 minute mark in the 3rd and than just let him play the entire fourth. If only he followed my 2k rotation

    If you watch the games with attention this happens very often, BUT Ariza and Pat normally see it and switch in time.

    Harden's got used to switch whenever he doesn't want to follow his defender and apparently that's ok on the team. He and the team will get the medicine at a playoff series again.

    Extremely undisciplined team. We will never win nothing with Kevin McHale coaching, just accept it.

    Seems like some of yall want to give up on the team and we haven't even hit the all-star break yet.

    We better fu***ng come like gangbusters tomorrow. But knowing these Rockets and the fact that it's OKC on TNT, were probably just going to lay a turd.

    How can we expect him to get better without giving him legitimate PT? I like McHale, but sometimes I simply can't explain his rotations. Canaan and Pap need to reintroduced into the rotation.

    I always wondered why he did that the other team usually goes on a run around that time
