    Harden and Howard are not bringing it tonight, defense is just awful, no plays being run for Terry, could've used Canaan, we need a creator, too little post touches for D-Mo, dumb Josh Smith out of control because McHale is okay with it, Ariza not getting plays run for him, terrible defense all round.

    Bright spot: Brewer!

    I think when JSmith starts to iso, that's when he plays bad.

    Whatever we do, we need to open up our 3pt shooting.

    Need harden to step it up and the D!!! And maybe mchale can make adjustments... But that's doubtful. DMO and Dwight carried the team in the first half

    Him and Curry aren't exactly having MVP nights considering both teams know they need to lock both of them down.

    All I want is another guard who can get his own shot on this team. Where is that Canaan guy? Didn't he score 20+ Pts against the warriors?

    GSW just has more discipline than us. We have more talent. We're getting Popoviched.

    That shot that rimmed out was just bad luck, but he and Dwight had a couple of horrible TOs. The refs need to wake up though. D-Mo was grabbed on that foul on Thompson and Iggy clearly shuffled his feet. That's 4 points the Warriors shouldn't have gotten.

    If the Rockets keep the TOs low(they didn't have many in the first half aside from the last couple minutes), shoot better while playing better D on the Warriors, and get something out of James, they can win this.

    Yes and when Harden is in the game you can see Harden demand the ball. Harden kinda puts him in his place and he knows to defer to him.

    He ignored Dwight several times and Dwight has dominated down low tonight. If we just would have posted Dwight up those last few possessions I'm sure we would have ended that qtr better.

    This whole game has been about Klay Thompson. 14 points but even more impressive, he's holding Harden down.

    Any time you can get inside game established, everyone has to follow suit.

    It's just so clear McHale is OUT COACHED every time this team plays a contender. maybe it's moreys fault for making him his puppet and a players friend.

    Defense was bad. Harden was bad.

    Those 2 things need to change if we're gonna win.
