    Is this one of Harden's "hung over" playoff games?! I hope not. He was as bad as KL was good. Still in it. A winnable game, if the Rockets start playing defense and rebounding better.

    Tony Parker is killing us. So good at dissecting us and scrambling our defense

    i'm actually not that worried, we did what we had to do in game 1 and that was to steal home court. Yes we are down 10 but the Spurs are red hot from the field, they should be further head.

    Refs out to extend this series. Gasol can murder people under the basket and get a "block". Leonard can stiff arm Capela, Ariza, Gordon, whoever, like a running back. He can also get free-throws for getting fouled on the floor.

    Harden has got to be better in the 2nd half

    1-9 and didn't have a single free throw attempt in that 1st half...that's not gonna get it done

    that's normal for him, his role in playoff is too depend on refs, which does not bode well for us

    Spurs played almost flawlessly, and the Rockets are still in it. If we tighten up the defense and Harden wakes up, then we have a chance.

    Beverley can't stay in front of him. Parker is smart with his play

    Harden is
    He gets respect, but he is playing terrible, you play well you get praised, you play like ass, you get called on it...you want to be the team leader, that is the price.

    And those were obvious must-call clobberings. Harden had a few they could've easily called

    Funny TNT uses Kawhi 'stiffarm' on Capela at the basket as a highlight.
    NO foul called. 2 pts.
    These refs are so one sided it's amazing. Shades of Tim Donaghey
