    Players getting hurt in pre-season just reminds me that there are too many games in a season to begin with. Please cut it to 72 if anything. Love my rockets basketball but it needs to happen

    Too early to moan and complain - stressful.

    For the record...it was tie until Pop put in all his 3rd stringers in the 4th while DAntoni still had his starters in .

    The good is we won, and Harden, Paul, and Gordon stinking it up from behind the arc in a preseason and not regular season game. Tucker is still a beast, and Anthony is gonna make our offense so much better than Ariza and Anderson did.

    The bad is Clint still sucks at free throws, but gets so much more money now. He needs to throw about 1000 a day I am guessing to get to a decent percentage, because his "so called practice" isn't showing much.

    Some things tend to repeat themselves every year. Some games are just full of bricks and turnovers and others aren't. Inconsistency is a common thread on our team.

    it doesn't matter because its the spurs... their 3rd stringers often play at the level of 1st stringers of other teams...spurs apologist cant have it both ways .. if they play 3rd stringers and win the pops system is awesome and if they lose then of course its because of 3rd stringers

    Long range shooting is the most fickle one but also the most rewarding way of getting buckets.

    That's a bit misleading. Your comment suggests it was a close game throughout until that point, but the reality is the Rockets largely controlled the game from start to finish.

    I can't recall the last time I was unable to watch a Rockets game in Houston....until this one. I've already marked both the next two games for recording, so they are definitely gonna be shown on Direct anyway. They don't put it in the listings if they aren't.

    I could never get the stream to work, so gave up eventually. Even tho this game means absolutely nothing, it is still always nice to get to see them play, but anyone attempting to find deeper meaning in this game should look elsewhere. The team can claim all day that they are treating preseason just the same as regular, but that's bs and we know it just as well as they do.

    I think Clint has a base pay of 15 million or so and gets like a 2 million dollar bonus for hitting 65% of his FTs during the season.
