    imho hes already playing at an elite level minus the 'lapses'

    he can score 60 and we can still lose if he dont move his feet to receive the inbound pass as already has been proved by that knicks game

    Nope. Dort is only going to play when Harden plays. His only job is to defend Harden. I dont think we will see Dort on Westbrook unless it's a switch.

    how well would Lebron do without AD? we got a 40 million cheerleader on the bench, if he's good to go we gotta use him.

    I'm getting uneasy about this game. I really hope Westbrook can push us back into the win column but I'm really worried that at a crucial time he'll go Westbrick and the rest of the team will desperately jack up threes from way behind the arc..

    it's not the rockets but it could have a domino effect on todays games.

    Iam sure a lot of Clipper fans felt that way too after the Docic game, until their team turned it up a notch and blew the Mavs out. We just have to get serious, OKC was in a must win situation twice, Cippers had theirs yesterday, now its our turn.

    the Rockets have a +26.3 net rating in 62 minutes with EG off the court...it’s -3 with him on

    it’s impossible for Russ to be worse than that idiot Gordon who is absolutely killing us this series, so I hope Russ plays and MDA can lower EG’s minutes and reduce his role

    you’d swear EG is actually MDA’s son with the way he keeps trotting him out there to embarrass himself

    Rivers and Mac should get more minutes too

    Guys, no insider here, but if the Bucks game is not played today as a show of protest, our game might not be played either.
