    Dear basketball Gods. Please make the dreaded 3rd quarter in our favor.

    One thing I noticed is his ability to get open under the basket. Dwight gets too stagnant waiting for a chance to post up. Just use a misdirection and get a dunk!

    We need a totally different level of defensive intensity in the 2nd half to stay in this.

    Howard better be shooting free throws right now. Doc is going to hack him all night long if given the chance.

    3rd quarter will be the most important. can't let clippers blow open the lead and have all the momentum/emotion/crowd in the 4th.

    as long as the rockets get back on defense and keep attacking and moving the ball on offense they can win this game.

    At least we got the hacking out of our system in the first half rather than mid game 2nd half.

    Looking for brewer to step up in the 2nd half. He's due for some break away buckets

    Doc and Paul always plan it out to get the most possessions. McHale plans out who to hack Deandre.

    Griffin can get his but we have to at least make him work for his.

    Have to eliminate the others from scoring like Barnes, Reddick and Crawford.

    Oh, believe me. I'm just as p-ssed at Dwight as I am at McHale. 1-6 with your season on the line is inexcusable. That's worse than Joey Dorsey. And DeAndre's made all 4 of his at the other end. Dwight has got to step up.

    The good news is a lot of things are in the Rockets favor. We're down only 2 despite getting outshot by the Clippers. We're winning the rebounding battle which has been the key in this series thus far. We're taking care of the ball(although so is LA). And the Clippers are relying heavily on Griffin, Paul, and DeAndre. They've played heavy minutes thus far(20 for Griffin and DeAndre, 19 for Paul).

    I don't like the 64 points we've given up. That has to change in the 2nd half cuz there's no way the Rockets score 62 again. But if they tighten up the D, keep hitting shots at least at their current pace, and let the Clippers wear out their stars, we can steal this.
