    It’s because he doesn’t practice ball anymore. He just researched sneakers all day.

    Rockets playing so bad they got Westbrook shooting 3s again. I knew after he hit that one in the first it wouldn’t be the last one this game.

    Two nights ago, the Rockets played one of their best games in franchise history. One game later, they allow 71 points in the first half and are getting drilled in Portland. No consistency at all.

    Here’s the deal...

    If harden is hurt, and he is still choosing to play, he is open to criticism, because what he’s doing right now is nuking the team.

    From the Utah game to this, talk about night and day.

    Still not my point, if Harden showed up with the way Russ is playing (not just scoring) this game would be different

    Okay and that's fine. Wishful optimism as a sports fan is like religion. No rationality. Not it's benign. No harm in it I guess.

    I had hope in previous seasons that the Rockets could legitimately win a ring especially in 17-18

    But if the Rockets are playing this poorly in the regular season no way can I see them stepping it up in the playoffs because no one on this roster has that type of dna and history to step it up in the post season relative to their regular season production.

    Because Whiteside is just chilling waiting to block a sbot. If we were going to pull off a miracle we need the 3 ball

    It’s desperation shots trying to catch up. Basically hoping for a miracle.

    well yeah. i mean that's pretty obvious but one has the defense schemed towards them and the other doesn't

    when you're playing box and 1 or triangle 1. they definitely aren't using that for wb

    We know all you Harden haters are loving this now. You would rather he plays badly and we lose rather than see us win. It's the highlight of your night. You're never here when he's carrying us and we're winning.

    So funny.

    Westbrook might have been the worst thing to happen to Harden.. He can't play with another volume scorer. Westbrook came and completely took over his team.
