    How come Harden never tries to get open on inbound plays? He doesn't even hold out a hand for the passer to see a target. He just kind of stands there. I don't blame Ariza for not knowing what to do.

    Miserable boring half of Basketball and the rocket only down 1.

    The Wolves are probably playing the worst basketball in the league right now, with a bit more focus we should win this.

    Nene has the biggest biceps and triceps in the league... Guys like that usually can't shoot 3s.

    Stop me if you've heard this one. Rockets look like crap in first half, can't hit their threes and other team seems to hit everything.

    Somehow only down one.

    Wizadry I tell you.

    really hoping these guys wake up at the half. they have so many chances to break this open. KAT/wiggins got quiet. take advantage.

    that nene 3 was awesome!!! Man, I ain't even mad with the first half performance. Entertaining game so far. Rockets seem to be in auto-pilot mode so far...

    Like I've said, rockets games are a match equation. If you don't kill the rockets then the 3s eventually catch up to you

    That's just Thibs style. If you can't win pretty, win ugly. Very very ugly.

    You are right, but Ariza is still a dumb player. He does have a brain no? Call a timeout, that's what it's there for. Pass to another player? He has done this so many times, I do not want him taking inbounds passes he is cringeworthy under pressure, his brain melts.
