    I can't believe Mike couldn't find a few ****ing minutes to rest Harden. At this rate, he won't have Harden later on the season if he is going to ride him heavy minutes.

    I remember when I heard Dragic was out.... I thought "this is a definite win!" and then immediately after I thought "dammit, we're going to lose"...

    EG got a good look. He just missed. Can't complain about the play.

    Running a play for Gordon to win the game the way he's shooting this year? Harden or Green would have been a better option but oh well.

    Good play call just should have been for someone else other than Gordon. GG, honestly even house, Clark, Knight...

    Got to man the **** up, we are in a hole trying to get out.....if you have to play 43 minutes, you have to play 43 minutes....

    We didn't lose because of that, we lost because we were outWORKED on the glass and in the game.

    The Rockets were tired, but they also did not play hard enough, sometimes the lessor talented team wins when the more talented one doesn't work.

    TONIGHT is that sometimes.

    Good fight.

    But it seems it's only fitting that Harden, Gordon and Tucker play 40 mins and we go home with the L.

    It summarizes the season. It signifies this Rockets team.

    what are you talking about Gordon was 5-12 from three at that point, He just hit 1 before.

    What was Green 0 for 1000 tonight from 3?

    That was a good look, it was in and out

    No team on earth is going to win a game when you give your opponents 20 offensive rebounds. A stat like Rockets last night shooting 26 three-pointers.

    Harden would have been doubled teamed on the shot so he sucked erixs mans in off the dribble which gave Eric a open look. It was a great run play but Eric missed. It happens.

    It was a good look, should have been someone else though. MDA cost this game, the last play was probably the best thing and only thing he did all game, relatively speaking

    Mike just rolls the ball out to his two stars, now one star.
