    It just seems like the other team always finds it so easy to score against us..... and we make it harder for ourselves by missing easy shots.

    Now that James' streak of games with 5 or more 3's is gone
    maybe he'll focus more on getting others involved

    We're relying on an old-ass, injury-prone small guard to come back and play for long stretches, especially in the Playoffs. I'm supposed to be optimistic??

    Could have been back at 4th seed tonight and 2 games behind warriors and only half a game behind thunder. Terrible night considering the opportunity they had and the game could have easily been a W had they not decided to play around all game like they will be given a W smh

    This exactly what i said in a better more forgiving way. I give him a pass cause i knew it was coming. If this was a good team he wouldnt have played like that. I know its selfish but it happens more then u would think with player. Even the top 10 ones. Im not mad at james. It was a game in January against a sorry ass team not in your divison. I know u arent suppose to play like that but if it ever was a time to do it this would of been the game. Just saying

    Rockets continue to be really bad vs sub .500 teams. Now 9-8

    Rox are 15-10 vs .500+ teams. Near the top of the league.

    Warriors are 19-2 vs bad teams. 9-12 vs .500+ teams

    Rockets still have ZERO answer when their threes are off.

    It ever cost us Championship.

    That’s fair. Also hurts when CP3, EG, Nene, and Knight are all out, but we still should’ve won this one.

    I’m sorry but you should never go 1/17. Once you go 1/10 it’s time to realize tonight is not your night.

    U are because u only need them to be healthy for really the playoffs. Since as the team is right now u can make the playoffs without them. N with them healthy u can beat anyone except mayne gsw with a good boogie cousins

    This rockets team is soooo flawed
    Harden shooting 3s at this clip is not winning anything significant more philosophy is just redundant
