    Lost only by single digits on a night where we started off horribly, Harden injured, got nothing aside from Rivers off the bench, where MDA went small and turned on Nene, CP3 again disappeared so I’m positive about games 3 & 4 where a House could benefit from some home crowd familiarity.

    Yes I have the gal to not give Harden the benefit of the doubt in these situations. He rolls on the floor like it's a season ending injury all the time after he perceives he didn't get a call and 3 minutes later he is back playing a full game.

    Considering there are only 3 champion coaches out there at the moment... Spoelstra, Popovich, and Kerr...

    We shot over 40% from 3, made 17 of them and STILL lost.

    How? We gave up 18 offensive rebounds and turned it over 17 times. That's a whole bunch of extra possessions you're giving to a loaded team.

    We have one of the best ball-handlers ever. How are we having turnover issues? Turnovers were supposed to be the Warriors weakness.

    On rebounding, Rockets HAVE to go big. Play Faried a lot more and at the 4. Move Tucker over to the 3 since House has been ineffective. Are we going to try anything?

    Ready to pay him 40 million for each of the next 3 seasons? Enjoy

    Are you trying to get swept?

    Our defense is good, it's the turnovers and not rebounding.

    Nah I just live in reality. Nothing I saw from the rockets this season tells me they have the fortitude to get the job done. You my friend are not seeing the forest for the trees

    He literally played 5 minutes and was a +2. Try again

    He should be playing the 4 anyway, not center. The point is to rebound better

    We got Cp3 3 seasons too late. It's unfortunate. He still makes mostly smart decisions but he just can't create much separation anymore.

    Nene was an enforcer.

    Took a early flight to Oakland for this? Rockets deserve to be trolled.

    Lazy and undisciplined in the biggest game of the year. Sad to see.
