    I don't think there's a fan base out there that waits for their franchise player to have bad games to jump on him and call him names more than this fan base to be honest it's very disheartening.

    I feared that this was going to be the case when we (essentially) maxed out Chris Paul and Capela.......and here we are. I HATE to see it.

    This is why I don't see us winning a Championship. No consistency. We look great then absolutely horrific. Yo-Yo should be our sponsor, because it is so fitting. I can't wait to hear all the excuses. Let's see...tired legs, blah blah blah.

    I was gonna quit watching at halftime, but it was so bad I couldn't stop watching. It was like when you continue watching a movie that is so bad, yet so weird it draws you in. You keep watching, thinking it is going to get better and it only gets worse. A real waste of time.

    I'm way over House and all his useless minutes.
    I am really liking Clemons. Too bad he didn't get enough minutes to take a ton of 3's.

    Those are all valid points, and the execution excellence of a Warriors team isn't ubiquitous in the playoffs; however, I think the overall IQ of the Rockets isn't as great as the last couple of years. I think MDA is a great players coach who can instill offensive confidence, but a subpar X's and O's coach (just my worthless opinion based on years of film). I just don't trust this team to make the right plays against tough defense, just not yet.

    I seriously hope we cut Clark because we are bringing in another player. He wasn't great but it would be nice to have someone else to go to when house and PJ keep struggling. If this was just about money we are truly fukked

    God our roster and system is so taxing. We legit have two shot creators last year and this year.

    CP would have pulled something already if he was still playing with us.

    Our roster is worthless outside of 2 guards

    MDA continues to gaslight the fans. Clint's heel is probably strawberry chutney by now.

    it's unfortunate that MDA is staying for the rest of this season. regular season over-performer, post season under-performer.

    the flashes we see of how shitty this team can be is damning evidence.

    also, our defense is garbage. i dunno who we need to get to get it under proper control. i see Tuck coming up clutch a lot on that end, but that lack of length and lateral quickness makes him limited. we need a sizable forward that can shore up that defense.

    Huh ok.
    Then give credit to Harden because cp3 is playing so well this season.


    OKC give all the credit to one guy. Sure don’t give credit to the gm who assemble the pieces they got. Don’t give credit to the actual players doing most of the work because if cp3 had no help he couldn’t take days off or relax. Sure give credit to only cp3 because he is the reason they shot so well from 3 or inside.
    Sure thing buddy I just said people giving too much credit to Paul. It’s not just Paul you know ....

    Is he though? So why does he keep House all these minutes game after game after game when he doesn't do enough?

    give harden credit for cp3 playing well? what in the world does that have to do with anything. he's a big reason why okc is a playoff team. some of you are just stuck on thinking cp3 sucks now. that's your problem.
