    Rockets gotta run some high pick and roll.

    Paul gotta run the elbow midrange/pass play.

    Except most the time it’s working and we are preventing a transition style game that they thrive on and we are weak on. Seriously 3 shot clock violations vs like 70% on ISO. I think it’s not as dumb as the TNT haters are trying to paint. They looked awfully stupid and humbled at halftime.

    Sometimes the score is not what's important. The question is what is sustainable offensive strategy for a 7 game series.

    Good thing is that Rockets can play much better in the second half!

    I think it is completely ridiculous to assume the Rockets cant score in isolation against these guys.

    You mean to tell me that if Harden gets Looney on him every possession you would rather he move the ball for ball movement's sake?

    Thank God there's a cap for Capela and no one can offer more than the max.

    We are tied and the team is capable of playing much better. Let’s get this W!

    Sounds like another Houston center. Now Hakeem has a legitimate argument as the greatest defensive player of all time so I don’t know if I’ll put that on Clint, but the guy is going to rightfully get a ton of money.

    Rockets are hanging in there, but Warriors look to be the superior team right now

    Halftime show analysis...it is tied because the warriors want it that way.

    GS will come out trying to deny iso at all cost .. other guys will need to make shots simple as that.

    There's only one game airing smart ass. He's missing assist opportunities to Capela.

    Normally when harden goes nuts in the first he’s quiet in the second. Team can’t play like crap and rely on him to score everything

    Very concerning that Curry and Klay still haven’t really showed up. No need to with Durant on fire, but must be nice to have them to look to compared to us looking at Gordon/Ariza/Green in the same light.

    We need to get everyone involved early, cant expect Gordon, Mbah or Green to get hot late in the game
