    They want a shoot out? Let's give them a shoot out! See if they can score 70 in the second half.

    I don't know what Harden's problem was in the first half. He is the type of player who could come out in the second half and dominate though. But his effort on D has to improve in second half. Rox giving up 78 in a half should motivate them to come out in second half with way more intensity than they had.

    I really wish the Rockets had someone like Phil Jackson as the coach.

    When good players can't get themselves going on offense, they try to play hard on defense at least. Harden is not a good player tonight.

    I think Harden will show up in the second half. But he struggles with Clippers but is magic against the trailblazers! Haha

    1. Cisco / Casspi >>>. Thank God for these two.
    2. Tough, tough, tough calls, but Jeremy and Chandler keep pushing through. I give them both a lot of credit for not letting the refs take them completely out of their game... that has to be INSANELY frustrating.
    3. Beverley is missed.
    4. I'm convinced Harden is hungover. There is just no other logical explanation. Tonight, either drive or pass. Period. Pick one.
    5. GREG EFFING SMITH. Who would have guessed??

    Jalen is always right about everything else, so I'm rocking with this:

    <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p>At Rockets at Clips game. High scoring(144 pts total)affair. Pts will balance out in 2nd half <a href="https://twitter.com/search?q=%23NBA&amp;src=hash">#NBA</a></p>&mdash; JALEN ROSE (@JalenRose) <a href="https://twitter.com/JalenRose/statuses/397585910830624768">November 5, 2013</a></blockquote>

    This! Please, the offense is ugly. I've been saying this twin towers front court isnt going to work.

    I think Morey and Mchale are trying to increase Asik's trade value by starting him next to Howard.

    Guys Harden's lack of defense isn't losing the game. His lack of offense is.

    Still have the second half. The Clippers will not shoot that high percentage in the second half. Rockets will make a push and let us see what happens when they do.

    I think this game we have both a team problem and an individual problem At least in two possessions, Harden was leaving his men wide open at the 3 pt line.

    Who really can though? He's done as well as can be expected, especially when refs are blowing whistles for even breathing on him.
