    Harden lost it for us, his defense was atrocious at the end

    Harden's worst game this season.

    Rockets look gassed to me. They went into overdrive to stay upright when Paul and Gordon went down and now they're sputtering.

    This is what frustrates me. When guys are hot from behind the arc they need more shots. Harden takes 10 less 3's and Rivers and House each take 5 more then we win that game.

    Roxs nuts fell off the last 3 minutes of the game. Harden kept shooting 3’s even though he was 1-17

    Shows that Ariza brick night wasn't just bad luck.

    Hitting 3s ain't as easy as it looks.

    They didn't win that game.... we lost it! Some of Harden's shot selection today wasn't smart..... especially when we was up by 10 with like 5 minutes to go.

    As I said, Harden's been amazing and I'm normally behind him..... but that was shocking from him today. These are the teams we need to be beating.

    You would think starting the season as 14th seed would teach them a lesson not to play around with opponents, but lack of leadership and matuarity showed. This includes CP. if he was that great of a leader this wouldn’t happen. Game 6 playoff loss against rockets doesn’t happen. They absolutely deserved this loss and deserve to lose again tomorrow for this ****

    I expect another L tomorrow when we have a second half collapse due to fatigue.

    It's been a month since CP3 went down and Morey still expects Harden to carry this team for another month.

    When Wizards wanted to blow up the team, Morey should've went all in on a 25yo Bradley Beal. He's exactly what we need right now.

    House and Rivers were hot from 3, but i guess harden must be the hero.

    Rockets front office probably let him know about the record and it got to his head. Shame.

    The problem with games like these is that the haters who been waiting in shadows, will now start coming out trashing harden. Poor harden can never have any off game or he's gonna get criticized for "giving up on the team". Sht games the haters remember, but the godlike game gets passed off as freethrowing, traveling, flopping boring game. Harden has it rough

    I can see them not caring for the top seed. Silver & Co. (along with CP3 hamstring) proved it doesn’t matter :(

    Rocket didn't even need the 3's Harden was dismantling the defense with just his passing, but he was dead set on shooting his threes.. so disappointing..
