    Yeah, because Harden has been abusing that play the most quite honestly. It's called Karma.

    A must win. The Rockets 2 years ago and this season have avoided 3-game losing streaks when the Warriors were not involved, so you would think they wouldn't drop 3 straight to the Spurs.

    I sure hope not. Maybe he has realized that those calls just don't come so easy in the playoffs and will actually take more step back jumpers, open shots, or simply pass to guys who are better at making the 3.

    Barkley going off on TNT tipoff saying he was extremely disappointed in the Rockets on friday. He picked them to win the series.

    No wonder why we lost. The Afterbuzz TV playoff panel all picked us to win game three and one said Anderson will play better and I cringed. I knew the media love was a jinx

    I haven't been scouring the boards much these last 3-4 days, so I apologize if this has already been discussed in detail, BUT...Could someone please explain to me why the Rockets have not made an adjustment and given Harden the green light to take some mid range shots? He's deadly with that quick stop and fallback jumper. The Spurs are CLEARLY approaching every defensive possession with the mindset of guarding the 3 at all costs and relying on Gasol or LMA down low to contest or defend and drives to the basket. The mid range is WIDE OPEN if Harden would just stop and shoot 3-4 times a night. When you are predictable against teams like San Antonio, they're going to figure you out and stop you. If Harden could knock a couple down, it might pull the big men further from the basket and make life easier for Capela/Nene. I expected this slight adjustment after halftime in game 3...Rockets better have made several adjustments for tonight, or this season could be in jeopardy.

    I love how they show green getting away with an arm hook ... That being said .. One of our bigs should have still gotten the ball .

    Anderson looking useless as per usual

    It's so funny he attempted at least 10 times to drive off a PNR only to do a bullet left handed pass that was deflected about 8/10 times. They figured you guys out man, drive, run plays!

    Ariza and Ryan drive me mad how they pump fake take one step then pick up the dribble:mad:
