    Charles is right... Harden is doing way too much. Seriously... Gordon hasn’t showed up in any playoff series dating back to last year. We need at least 15 from him plus another player outside of the big 3 to step up to have a chance.

    They are right about dribbling too much until only 3 seconds left and everyone just watching.

    I can't with this half time show. They literally picked the -worst- possession we had to show how our offense performed? Get out of here...

    I didn't know dumping the ball down to Durant is an exotic offense?

    Yeah, but at least GSW doesn't have a lead.

    The TNT guys suck, if Golden State wasn't trying the Rockets would be blowing their asses out.

    If we find a way to win this game, I may take off tomorrow. This is a critical statement game

    Good. I like that! They want it bad!

    This isn't Harden/Dwert arguments behind the scenes

    TNT guys talking like they don't know the Rockets play this way. This is the way we have played all year. They aren't going to change it now. I would love more ball movement myself but I'm use to this already.

    Need to slow down KD or Klay in the second half.

    Biggest disappointment so far:
    Anderson was on the floor
    Mbah a Moute choking
    Eric Gordon continues to be MIA

    On the other hand. We can win this game. We are generally in the moment.

    This is intense but it’s so fast that before you know it something else has happened. Baseball has this mini dramatic pause between pitches that can’t be matched for intensity.

    Can’t say I disagree with TNT. This iso ball is pretty brutal... we’re just okay with it at the moment when the step backs are falling.

    This TNT HT show is embarrassing and beyond unprofessional.

    The way you shut them up is to win this series.

    For all that supposed ball movement they only have 4 more assists than Rockets. Will the TNT clowns mention the Rockets 22-16 edge in rebounds? Nope.

    I don't think so, we do need a more dynamic offense. if we play this way, Harden will be dead by game 5 or 6 again.
