    I'm really tired of missing all these shots in the paint... and Utah always finishing Q1 with twice as many FTAs.

    Were are Houston fans .... for a game 5 playoff game that arena is so quite you can hear a pin drop. Maxwell was right 25 years ago... Houston fans suck!

    They were until Harden lost the momentum back to back to back.. We should be up by 17 points if not for this turnovers and missed layup.

    House can’t hit freethrows. That’ll hurt his chances for big money.......

    Give the Jazz some F'ing credit. Their defense is absolutely suffocating us. They have confused our players, our coaches, EVERYONE.

    The way to win here is to focus on defense. Lock them down and get out in transition.

    We just don't care. The crowd doesn't either. Pathetic.

    Harden has just been so passive. Throwing up half hearted shots and looking for fouls rather than just being aggressive and attacking. He's better than this.

    I don't like the version of Harden that we are getting tonight. This is never good.

    This team was a few possessions away from coming into this game 2-2 lmao. Surely Harden can show up just once either later this game or in the next two games.

    Unfortunately, that's just how the league is. Refs swallow their whistles come April, so yes, it is his fault if he can't adjust because there is nothing anyone on earth can change that besides Adam Silver. Last time I checked, Silver isn't a Rockets fan.

    I'm not happy with Hardens' start. However I'm not going to go the lazy route and say it's "Playoff Harden". People like to pick and choose when it's "Choking" and when it's not. Apparently we didn't need him games one and two, so that didn't matter. Apparently we needed him in game 3! That's when we needed him. Up 2-0 in the series, that's when you need your MVP!

    He doesn’t make any adjustments. He just gives harden the ball and lets him figure it out.
