    It's not just 3s. His missing layups, step backs, mid range you name it he's missing it. Hes getting himself good looks he just can't find tthe net and it's showing in our record. This team goes as Harden goes.

    I'm putting this in my sig. It's up to the observer if I'm being sarcastic or not.

    Who knew Josh Smith gave us the chemistry? Aside from Harden not making shots, he's the only one we changed. He could give us both defense and offense. Morey miscalculated his value to us.

    Time to make calls, Morey. And for JB, time to play the youngsters

    In fairness to Harden, he asked for help. And none came. In fact, more pressure on him, and he's cracking.

    Lol, only if hakeem is suiting up and you somehow made him 20 years younger... Then again he'd definitely be an upgrade even now with the **** effort this team is showing, hell suit up Drexler, Bullard and Murphy too. **** the new age rockets, man.

    Dude, he shot 48% from 2pt last year. He's at 47% this year despite the woeful shooting start. His only problem this season apart from the awful D which has since been remedied these past 2 games is he's taking too many 3's this year and missing too many 3's. It's bizarre what happened to his 3 point shot.

    All I see is the opposing perimeter guys running by our guys Howard contesting the shot the guy miss and none of our player can get a defensive rebound.

    Gasol did nothing, actually nothing that the Grizzles did today in offense were good.

    All you saw was a Block that Capella got on Gasol, why? Because Gasol will never challenge Howard like that. Actually all I saw was the Grizzlies missing some of the most embarrassing layup attempts scare for their live when Howard went to challenge. Actually all I saw was Howard just owning the Grizzlies front court.

    You know what out problem now, WE CAN'T SCORE, you no how won't going to help you score CAPELA.

    Neither Capela nor Howard are the problem, 20 3p% is the problem 37 FG% is the problem, 23 T.O. is the problem, Player MVP diapering is the problem.

    Yeah, that's true, Lawson was supposedly the answer... but Lawson either can't play without drinking or he's been told to shoot for the lottery...

    The team went out and got Lawson. It should have been a good move. He should have been the help Harden needed but instead he decided to hide in a shell.

    Not even close - have you actually watched this team this year? Harden has been a net negative for this team. As I said, he fills the stat sheet on some nights, but teams have learned to sag off him and not reach in when he drives. The refs also aren't giving him as many calls. He gets his points but he's gone from being one of the most efficient players in the league to one of the least.

    Posters like yourself belong in the Chronicle comment section, not on a message board for adults. Please go back there with the rest of the children.

    .....Gasol whent right into the chest of Howard and Howard stood there and just watched Gasol shoot a fade right over him. Dwight looked surprised that there is someone in the league who can actually make a move in the post.

    Not a bad game

    Effort was there but missed a lot of shots

    Like JB said, gotta be more agressive until they start going in

    How can you honestly deduce that?? Lol, gotta be realistic... it's like this could be an excellent documentary on "How not to run an NBA team" starring Morey and co... Unless they can communicate during games with chemistry, or harden can score 100 points on iso this team isn't going anywhere forward soon....

    Did you see the rockets losing to terrible teams after they came back from 0-3 starts and wins over Clippers and Spurs? Anything can happen and in an instant.

    Like I said, if law of averages is a thing then the Rockets are going to get insanely hot some point in the season. Hopefully that point is soon.

    lol at the sheer lack of self-awareness displayed there. one of the big reasons why we can't score is we have no legitimate second offensive weapon on this team. yes, harden needs to do much better job as a leader, but you know what, even if he scores 30+ points every night, if Dwight can't contribute anything offensively to this team, then he is just a over-paid part time player. Ty and Dwight both needs to be criticized for the current funk that the Rockets are in, and I am sick and tired of seeing Dwight getting a pass on this matter. McFail, Harden, Ty are all currently getting **** load of flacks from the fans here, and rightly so. But Dwight? no... he's the only player we can't point our fingers at. **** that, he sucks too and i've watched enough games this season to confirm my belief that he's not helping this team to win any more than Capela does, outside the rebounding.
