    i have same thought. parsons should play a role more or less like battier, defense and open 3 pts.

    Look at it this way.. we COULD be Dallas right now! We may lose games we are "supposed" to win, but we are just as likely to win the games we are "supposed" to lose. Its the NBA, we still got this!

    Quit trollin' brah.

    These games make me sick to my stomach. Another great opportunity for the Rockets to move up in the standings and they choke. Just like last yeear, smh.

    Pretty much everyone played like **** except Harden and Asik. Parsons played okay but missed key free throws, as did the team as a whole. And to top it off a lucky ass shot by Ellis, what a joke. Rockets just can't seal the deal with a damn rebound.

    Reasons for the loss were pretty simple.

    Harden/Parsons = 12 TO's
    Delfino ice cold.
    Poor FT shooting.
    Monte Ellis was hitting circus shots.
    Poor coverage of Dunleavy at the 3 point line.
    Critical plays blown due to poor rebounding and Harden not passing or dunking on that blocked shot.

    Harden didn't look quite right on the floor. I'm wondering how beat up he is as he's taken hits to that knee multiple times in the last couple weeks.

    Also, we've got 2 new players in the rotation (Dmo and TRob) so I wouldn't be surprised if there's still a lot of feeling out going on. TRob definitely was a no show in terms of rebounding but I would expect that will get better.

    It's one game. Just hoping that Harden is okay. We've been seeing him take a beating a little too much as of late and it has me worried.

    Fortunately, the Rockets got some rest coming with the slowly paced schedule so hopefully the team will be more polished over the coming games.

    Did you even watched the game? Parsons turn the ball over on fast break, on driving to layups & his bad passes never reached the receiver, unlike Lin/Harden to Asik's case.

    Lin and Parsons killed us down the stretch. We deserved to lose. We don't defend other than Asik and we are sloppy with the ball.

    Loses to Washington and Milwaukee are unacceptable. This team needs some one else that is good beyond Harden and Asik. Lin has his head up his ass 60% of the time and Parsons needs to play smarter.

    given the fact that we choked , a warrior loss is a good thing. It would be great if we had won.

    This is why I roll my eyes every time someone posts about our 'easy schedule' and takes it for granted, oh yeah we're going to the playoffs, looking down on the Lakers, blah blah blah...

    There were so many mistakes in the last 2 minutes. Nearly every move was wrong. There's plenty of blame to go around.

    He needs to play a big lineup to close out games instead closing games with small ball.

    GSW had major chokes in last minute.

    Jack TO, got the ball stolen after the Knick buck, then Knicks got the 2nd FT rebound....

    what a waste of 54 points from curry

    So? That means you ignore him when you're supposed to be guarding him. At least put your hands up and be within 2 feet of him?

    Parsons is not a starter on a top 10 team. we need a genuine SF like Iguodala.

    Ugh, it's not like we have any good lock down perimeter defenders on the team...Lin may actually be our best perimeter defender...which is one of the reasons why we suck on D

    I don't even know where to begin with this loss, so many bad plays in this game. The Rox really didn't execute at all after the 1st Q. Harden had bad fouls and turnovers especially in 4th Q, Parsons killed us at different times in the game, McHale with his usual bad rotations, just SOOOOOO many bad mistakes..... Rox blowing opportunities left and right the last couple of games. They could be almost in the 6th spot by now the way games are going currently tonight.......

    They both sorta gave and took today... Especially Parsons. He would commit TOs or play bad D and then make up for it by draining a timely 3. Same with Harden.
