    the defense has easily been good enough to win, we just keep missing good looks which is frustrating...Rockets should be up by like 10 right now

    GS dominates in the 3rd so I’m very nervous

    harden has been shooting poorly from the arc several games now. paul is streaky from behind the arc and rarely puts together 2 consecutive hot shooting games. i don't feel good about the second half

    TNT clowns. The Rockets got a shitload of open shots. They simply missed them. Those shots will fall in the 2H.

    It's more like he needs to develop and practice midrange, because he's just not good at it right now. It's so frustrating, because Harden's not good enough of a three point shooter to play like that. If you're Steph Curry you can get away with it, but damn man you better have midrange when you're shooting just 35% or so from downtown.

    CP3 and Harden won't keep shooting like this.

    Hopefully.... SEcond half should be better.

    Just came in from a family function to see that Harden and Paul can't hit the broad side of a barn and we are tied! How is that even possible?

    It was not a terrible half. Defensively, they were great. Now, offensively, yes, they were awful.

    Harden and Paul are taking over in second half. If those guys were gonna have a bad half it had to be first. Believe Red Nation!!

    Let's see who has the big 3rd quarter - Rox or Dubs. Someone's going to go on a run, start hitting some shots.

    Wow....just wow. That was a freaking ****** half time show. Are you really saying we didn't give enough effort for the Santa Fe situation? A) It's a freaking basketball game. B) We came out busting our freaking ******, we just missed shots. Don't be that guy that equates missed shots with no effort.

    People need to stop crying and complaining, Harden this and Cp3 that. Calm you crabs down and enjoy game.

    Missed open shots. It’s really as simple as that. Obviously better play from Harden and Paul would help as well.

    Again, the worriers are dangerous in 3rd quarter.
