    114.2 PPG in their 9 playoff games. Embarrassing doesn't even begin to describe that.

    I will be watching and hoping that the team can keep this series going. Frustrated but I can't give up on the organization I have been a fan of since 1979. Go Rockets!! Through the good times and bad times will always believe in the Rockets!!

    The team played well cause they hacked Jordan for the half the game..

    Case in point the rockets still gave up 60 points and didnt have the lead so did it really work?

    They have a collection of brick layers from all corners of the court...@ the FT Line, @ the three point line, and @ the rim...Oh and they turn the ball over more than a middle school girls basketball team.

    Just saw the boxscore. WTF Dwight got fouled out. Is all he did was hack a jordan? How was he in his 18 mins?

    Harden, like Curry, isn't a playoff type of player. These jumpshooting crap isn't going to work in the playoffs consistently. The many times tonight I saw him driving and then lunging into the defenders throwing his hands up expecting a foul. When he didn't get it, he pouted. Calls aren't given as easily in the playoffs. We all know that.

    Harden needs to get a post game ASAP this offseason. Diversifying his game rather than 3pt or layup.

    It worked because it accomplished what the hack is supposed to do.

    Jordan shot like crap from the FT line and it took the ball out of the hands of CP3 and Griffin.

    What happens after the FT's is on the Rockets. If the Rockets can't score in the half court it's not because Jordan was hacked, it's because the Rockets couldn't execute.

    Just realized that Calgary-Anaheim are in quadruple overtime in the NHL playoffs. Think I'll watch that to see a competitive game for once.

    He's a **** head but it's a good plan. Dwight gets agitated about it.

    I've been very pro Harden this series but I lost it when I saw his post game press conference. He made some comments about how the team needs to cut and screen for each other to make things easier on offense or something along those lines. I heard and I'm like James what the **** are you doing??? His standing on the 3pt like and not doing anything without the ball is killing us on offense

    Dwight is mentally weak. Just one of many problems with this team.

    Absolutely. But to be fair, last years team wasn't as injured.

    We had a really strong bench and when one of our starters was out for a game, we had others that could step up as we had more than 1 playmaker.

    What would that do? More team turnover equates to more turnover in general.

    He lookd like Toronto game Tmac on a few positions. Hands on his hip drifting around the 3 pt line. Not what you want from your leader.
