    He puts zero effort on the defensive end. If there's a loose ball, he'll stand there and wait for someone else to get it. And that transition layup the Rockets gave up late in the game was because he didn't bother to run back.

    I don't think the Rockets plan to deal Harden away, so it looks like the only solution is to bring in a coach who'll ride his ass until he either plays hard at both ends or quits on the team and forces them to trade him.

    Lucky Thornton was hot or this would have been a blowout.

    All I can do is Smh. This is by far the most heartless team in Rockets history. All this talent and we can't even beat this scrub Nets team. Bleep playing defense. And yeah Harden you are indeed a great leader.

    The only thing more annoying than Harden's no-show tonight are the stupid overreaction trade Harden/Dwight ****posts and kneejerk threads.

    The Rockets came out half stepping. They are UNDISCIPLINED and LAZY.

    OLD HABITS DIE HARD.

    Harden spends more time grooming his beard than thinking about improving his game; spends more time with that K* female than practicing; spends more time doing commercials than watching tapes figuring out how to play well. I say when he bounces back we trade his a$$ away.

    Honestly Lopez was climbing all over his back, Dwight had the position and Lopez just reached all over him to get that.

    Any ways, Not going to overreact. They are playing better, nice to see the bench actually playing better these last few games.

    If Ariza isn't seriously hurt and if DMO can find his form we'll be alright. Not really shamed by this loss, Nets have played a lot of good teams close. Even the Warriors, if you sleep on them this is what will happen.

    JB should just quit while he has the chance to go somewhere else. This team is trash. The players aren't trying and it makes him look bad.

    I have been a rockets fan for over 20 years. I have never seen rockets with this kind of defense and effort. even with ****ty rockets team we played hard and gave full effort. Our stars play without any heart. Harden just jacks up 3's and dwight cant do **** on offense. I am going to sleep. **** this team.

    Do they still do 2 minute reports or did they stop doing it like flopping for fines? Why does the NBA stop doing things that actually improve the league?
