    Smith did earlier. He got a layup. D-Mo has a few times and bricked his shots as usual. Jones did make a hook shot at the beginning.

    It may not look like it, but they have gone inside. It ain't easy though with Jordan in there, especially without Dwight to clean up a few misses.

    The real problem remains the lack of a 2nd playmaker and inconsistent 3-point shooters. If we had just one 40+% outside shooter on this team, it would make all the difference in the world. It's mind-boggling that Morey has never made that a priority. And no, Ariza doesn't count. Based on his career, a smart GM would know last season was probably a fluke.

    It was the right play though...Dorsey bricked both and Clippers had the chance to get the final shot.

    Only down 8 after one of the worst quarters of the season, guess that's a good sign right :(

    Well the way we're playing, that easy schedule is not going to matter. Harden just does not care right now.

    Thank God for Corey Brewer these last few weeks. As ugly as it has been for the Rockets, I can only imagine how bad it would've been if they didn't have him.

    We don't give the same effort anymore. We've gotten lazy.

    That goes on Harden. Earlier in the season, he was making the extra plays on defense and the team followed suit. Not, he isn't making those plays so everyone else isn't putting an extra effort either.

    using Jordan Hamilton to foul him isn't a waste

    3pt consistency is an issue because we got nobody down in the paint to dominate.

    Rockets getting open three point shots and not hitting them.

    Rockets getting open lanes to the basket and and don't have the personnel to capitalize.

    We need roster balance so bad.
