    I actually don't think that's true. They started defending Capela better that's why we couldnt get shot. When that gets shut down it's iso time. We actually got a whole bunch of open 3's, but CP, Tucker, Gordon and Green bricked all of them

    Thibodeau did a great job defensively in this one in terms of making the Rockets scramble a bit and work harder. Rockets didn't adjust well enough, but also missed a lot of open shots, which will happen sometimes. The high horns double screen play is definitely one they need to add for Paul when a team is playing him as tight as Minnesota did tonight, but 5 points is just unacceptable.

    IT'S YOUR FAULT!!!!!

    no but seriously, the second half was gross. It's better that you missed most of it, Not worth the headache to watch the team build a brick house

    I missed the first half so all I got to see was the Rockets shoot themselves in the foot the entire half.

    maybe it's my fault for tuning in :oops:

    This is another JB Bickerstaff season. Wonder what picks Tilman will use to dump CP's salary.

    38 pts in 2nd quarter, and only 9 in the 4th quarter..

    Players won't change that dramatically, nahhh, just don't happen that way, apparently something else changed here:
    weather, humidity, loudness, slippery flooring, basket changed smaller, ball gets bigger..

    yah, one of these, or combined, that explains so.

    Careful you'll be put on a doubter list and have this post quoted after the next fluke win.

    Not saying this is ‘15/‘16, but the one thing that really stood out that year was it was just a ton of streaks of 1-2 wins, never able to really gain any momentum despite seemingly turning the corner in multiple games. At some point just need to admit we’re a .500 team - refused to do so until demolished by GSW in ‘16 playoffs, think that revelation will be even harder to come to grips with now.
