    Without Capela and Dekker (two rookies basically) we're down 15 after the 1st...

    i realize bev only had 1 second but does anyone on our team ever know what is on the clock? he gets it in, looks like he's going to rush, then just takes a couple od dribbles as the clock expires. same with trevor and the shotclock.

    and that anderson (spurs) layup makes me so mad. i can't stand when a defender gets knocked away under the basket and then takes 5 seconds to recover to come back and help. think it was lou will but maybe someone else. they just assume the firsst layup will be made and don't get back to defend the second.

    This does not bode well if we're relying on Dekker to carry us

    Losing Nene was the coup de gras for this team defensively.

    Our team is the worst rebounding team I've ever seen. It's as if none of our players ever learned to block out.

    Dekker is bringing a spark but we need a whole lot more from everyone else to make this competitive again.

    What a horrible, horrible, horrible 1st quarter AT HOME in GAME 6...

    and how do we let SA score on EVERY final possession that they have in EVERY quarter?!?!??!

    Dude has something to prove. That's why sometimes you throw these young guys in and see what happens.

    They may make mistakes, but they are giving you at least 100% effort, they are on rookie contracts and got something to prove.

    Shame on D'Antoni for not playing Dekker earlier. This is what we missed. He's a capable shooter with energy!

    He's another forward we can go small with, along with Anderson at C

    Harden clearly has given up or has some kind of injury. He's not built for the PlayOffs... Regular season through first round star only kind of guy.

    I can't believe Harden has wasted 3 straight quarters like this. It's low basketball IQ. He's doing what Lebron did vs Dallas. And it's embarrassing.

    Rockets are struggling because everyone outside of Dekker is scared to shoot the 3. They're not gonna win if they're scared to shoot.
