    He completed like 40% of his passes for under 150 yards passing. He was terrible.... just like he was terrible tonight.

    Just finished the game. Good win overall.

    Nice to see PJ, RA and especially Ariza sinking some Threes!! (3 in a row with 3rd calling bank!)

    Gordon was hitting some nice shots.

    Thankful for CP3

    Green is possessed! Hitting 3s and wrecking the rim!!! LOVE it!!!

    CAP showed glimpses of dominance!

    Black seems like he's a a day late and a dollar short.

    7 man rotation, guess that’s enough players for our coach...CP3 with 6 TOS?!!?! What is our offense doing to Chris? Glad to see all our guards with 20+ again, Gordon with 9 assists and Capela with that rebounding. Ryan is still doing nothing..

    Mchale is a character very strange personality.

    That's about all I liked about him over MDA.

    But from a coaching perspective MDA had proven many of times, not just here in houston. That he is a much better coach than Kevin.

    It's not even close.

    Man a 2 for 7 night would be fire for Anderson right now. His shot is super broken.

    I mean....new shoes or something? Dr. Scholls? Something to change up the mojo jesus

    Fairly reasonable to say that his percentages will come down, especially from 3, but I think it's safe to say that he is absolutely a rotation player who gives us another scoring threat off the bench.

    Good win tonight because any win is a win in the standings. With the Spurs on our tails we need to compile as many wins as we can. EG was great,CP was CP and Gerald has to be the pickup of the year.

    Agree and think he is in MDA's wheelhouse for "will make player look twice as productive versus any other coach".

    Was Harden the only one on the team capable of throwing the ball up high to Clint off the pick and roll? Everyone else is making things too difficult by throwing or bouncing passes down low that Clint has to bring up through 4 arms of defenders. It must be either lack of practice or lack of skill, but they are making this harder than it needs to be for Clint to slam dunk.

    Harden is really good going to the rim for layups and it's a huge difference how they have to defend that pick and roll with Harden. CP is good but more often than not has to stop and pop from short distance.

    great offensive threat (especially driving or stepback), gravity, skill, IQ, timing, practice

    I thought cp3/capela would be just as lethal as harden/capela...soon?

    Things take time to develop but clear CP3 still isn’t comfortable running offense yet.
