    The free fall continues ....

    Last I checked, we were up 15 damn points.

    The Houston revenge tour is hitting hard this season, and it's crossing sports.

    The city is going nowhere fast.

    Dumfuq coach keeps running 8 man rotation...

    Dumfuq coach wont play/develop young talent...

    Dumfuq coach wont call timeout...

    Dumfuq coach watches leads melt away and makes no adjustment...

    Dumfuq coach is fascinated with having the worst benches in the league...

    Dumfuq coach watches his player go 1-17 and does nothing...

    I’m frustrated that on a night where Harden clearly didn’t have it working from three that he failed to adjust and make a concerted effort to drive to the basket, where he was scoring or getting fouled at will. The game was tied at 101 with four minutes left, and Harden, who was 1-15 from the three-point line at the time, took a contested step-back three. That’s the kind of decision we would b**** at Russell Westbrook for doing in Oklahoma City.

    That said, the Rockets have much bigger problems than James Harden, and it starts with their role players not consistently playing well.

    Lol, can't even credit MDA for Westbrooks better shot selection. Imagine if Harden and Russell were chucking threes last few games.

    We really have some delusional fans if they can rewrite the narrative and defend Harden for these stretch of games. The guy is fools gold and only cares about his scoring stats.

    Clearly the answer is to shoot more threes. Dang man come on.

    8 man rotation, PJ Tucker playing 40 mins, midget ball all the way. Somebody throw Dumbtoni a bone out there, he is pulling out all the stops and using everything he knows and it still isn't enough!

    People were always telling me MDA's offensive brilliance is unmatched. Crazy how the Rox offense sucks now that Harden has cooled off. It's almost as if Harden was the reason for Rox's offense being so good all along and not MDA's system. Ball don't lie and credit grabbers always get exposed.

    trade deadline is in 2 weeks, I wonder if we'll even attempt to fix any of our multiple issues.

    This is the poor decision making I'm talking about. Why the hell is Harden shooting corner 3's when he rarely shoots those shots. I know this is 38 second clip, but why is he even over there? smh.

    Why couldn’t he have stuck to driving today, then work on his shot after the game? Infuriating.

    Trade Harden's washed, lazy ass for Towns and Covington. Fire Morey and MDA. Could lead to better things.

    Who cares where they are?
    If you end up being right and cp3 finishes the year and plays great in the playoffs, why do you care that you were right and some other fan was wrong in this instance?

    I never understand fans jumping on other fans about opinions that have zero to do with the actual decisions that are made. We are all right on some and miss on others.

    The team is the one pulling the trigger and putting forth the product that we have.

    I couldn’t give a **** about what another fan thinks of my opinions on the team but I know a lot of people have fun with that stuff and like being right.

    Actually I get it. People have different ways of blowing off steam when the team sucks. I’ve probably done it before.
    Carry on.

    So that's twice that a CP3 led team has beaten a Hardheaded team.
    Speaks volumes.
