    Even in a win Rockets fans have things to quibble about. Just enjoy the win, because it was a good one :)

    Memphis is slightly slipping in that group
    we should be jackals or vultures to feast on anyone there

    Great team win tonight. Shots weren't falling, but the team still gutted it out, and it never looked like we ever lost control of the game.

    Stop, don't pit our players against each others. We are the houston rockets team, it's never about an individual player

    Yea , the Cavs commentators are not bias like the others
    But I think it also went a bit overboard.
    They were purposely trying to jinx us by giving all improbable high stats.
    Sometimes I like it when they show their true colors

    Memphis may fall back with all the trade R.Gay talk.

    I think it's important to note Harden got 7 of those 8 steals. It looked like he was going to have a bad game but still ended up with his usual stats (except the efficiency was off)

    i wouldn't say it was a "good" win. Cleveland is terrible. we should have blown them out.

    Did you watch the Rockets prior to this season? If so, you'd know that we've generally been a very poor closing team. Harden's ability to create and make shots at the end of games looks to have changed that. And he also created some open 3-point shots that were missed as well with his PnR/ISO game, so its not like we're getting bad shots.

    I say if it works, then it works. I respect the way the Spurs do things, but the Rockets are still young and finding there way so I think its best to simplify things. A guy like Harden who can draw fouls seemingly at will, hit shots off the dribble, and will hit the open man with the pass has special "closer" skills that you want to take advantage of.

    :rolleyes:
    Translation: Lin would've been the hero if Harden wasn't such a ballhog.

    Ugh.
