    Nobody played well tonight nobody. Harden was bad, Lin awful, Parsons terrible greg awful. I am most disappointed in Parsons. I knew Harden & Lin would struggle but I thought Chandler would step up & he didn't. Young team hopefully getting that first game out of there belt will get rid of the nerves.

    wow.

    dude, its his first playoff game, against westbrook and #1 team in the west.

    you have very high expectations, (which is good i guess) but cut him some slack. his 3pt is not his strong suit but we need him to be comfortable with his 3s to open the lane.

    relax, and allow him to learn from his first post season game. those were nerves that he showed there. he will be more comfortable next time.

    Let's be serious

    There was no way Rockets were gonna beat the Thunders anyways, why all this outrage now? Against the Spurs, we had a chance... :cool:

    if Jeremy Lin is going to be the PG he has to realize how precious each possession is.

    Barkley going in on the Rockets.

    Yeah we're not gonna go from not making the playoffs to competing against the best team in the league in a playoff series in one year. This is good experience for this young team. They need to know how far they have to go. Parsons, Harden, and Asik (who I believe to be the untouchables) will only get better and I think if you can get that second star (Love) then you can start actually thinking about how you stack up against a top tier team like OKC.

    Awful. I knew it would be bad but didn't expect it to be that bad.

    Yes. Tough lesson for Houston. They will learn from it.

    to be fair, other than Parsons I think the whole team sucked tonight. Harden was inefficient in offense and terrible at defense. Lin was terrible on both sides

    I thought that torture would never end! :eek:

    In reality, it's the spanking that I should've expected. The youngest team, with so many making their 1st playoffs appearance that play 0 defense against the best of the West? I was silly for even thinking we might steal this one when we were down by 2 :p

    Everyone except the Bearded One and Saint Patrick was terrible, with Jeremy and Greg leading the way. Just hot poopoo.
    Im not so mad about all the bricks, that's usually how it is in the playoffs, that's why defense is so important, it's what keeps you in the game.
    I except the team as a whole to step it up a little more in Game 2, now that they've got a feel of the playoffs' toughness.

    First playoff game lets cut these guys some slack. Nobody played well tonight. Harden had 20 points on 19 shots. parsons was inefficient, Greg was invisible.

    Barkely is a fool, he said some funny thing on Yao and he always loses those bets.

    May I ask why do you call bonbons for candies in Houston? Bonbons is a French word.
