    Man this game was hard to watch. But we played some awesome d and a win is a win.

    It's great to see the rockets continue to force shot clock violations.

    I thought Anderson played pretty decent D.
    14 Pts, 12 REB.
    If you're not making shots, then playing D is the best offset

    Harden is not embracing the system, he needs to run more - he is walking it up far too much.

    what is more important to you? that Harden had a low % of FGA at the rim last year or

    he had more drives per game, more points off drives, and more assists off drives than

    Lebron
    Durant
    Kyrie
    Steph
    Kawhi
    Thompson
    Green
    Butler
    George
    Wade
    Dragic

    had more points off drives than Westbrook and Lowry

    had more assists off drives than Lillard

    and drew contact and given FTA and makes during drives more than everyone in the league

    Winning ugly at this point of the season is fine If we're half way through the season and we're still iso'ing through the 4th quarter, then I'll be a bit worried.

    Remember we lost the first 3 games last season by 20+ each? I'll take this ugly 2-1 start.

    Sometimes coaches go offense/defense, and best defensive unit when they're up. And then on offense put in better offensive unit. Coach D'Antoni went for defense it looked like to me. Had Rockets been trailing by 2 points, Ryno probably would have played the last few minutes.

    Really sucks we lost the 1st game but maybe it lift a fire under this team? They have played really good defense these past two games.

    Loved how Anderson adjusted from the previous two games and stuck to rebounding and defense when shots didnt go in.

    This is what made him a couple of years ago very dangerous. Hope his shooting comes back

    Rockets 93, Mavs 92 (final). James Harden goes to the line for the game-winning free throw with 0.1 seconds left. He stopped to bark at Mavs assistant coach Jamahl Mosley first. Mavs fall to 0-3.


    Watkins pal trying to make Harden look an ******* lul

    I don't understand all this b****ing about winning ugly. The 14-15 WCF won a bunch of games bricking free throws, threes, and turning over the ball 20 times. A win is a win. I sure wish we could have won ugly against LA.

    Dirk is more of a liability than an asset at this point
