    Guess we lost the veteran leadership when Camby left, similar to 08-09 when the locker room was messed up and everything went right once Deke came back.

    We got our biggest lead in the 3rd qtr with the TT.

    It's our outside shooting. It's went south these couple of games. We used to be able to rely on garcia and casspi before.

    The team just gave up with about 4 minutes to go. You could see that aside from Beverly, nobody was working hard on defense at the end.

    Losses I can take. Quitting, no.

    And if I hear one more excuse outta Clyde, Bill or Bullard, I'm gonna puke.

    We didn't trail after the first quarter?

    STOP MAKING SENSIBLE ANALYSIS!

    Just blame Lin. Things go easier that way. It's a couple of days until the next game Dagnabbit!

    Sure it did...watch the game. That line up started out bad in the first half of the quarter....just not enough scoring with that line up.

    my one foot is officially off the mchale bandwagon. I said if he came out starting asik in the 2nd half and I will officially remove one foot off of it. That quite stubborn.

    Trade Lin!!

    At least this is the first game I'm starting to feel good about Parsons and Beverley getting their shoots back. Garcia and Casspi, tho, hard to overcome when they both go cold in the same game. Their bench and wing shooters >>>> ours.

    Never saw non starter get blamed for a game only in Houston! he played bad in the 3rd really pissed me off ! gave us a good first half tho

    Howard did not hussle sets half a$s screens, let's Bev out hussle him on rebound him on certain plays, only jumps high when he feels like it, harden was hurt so I don't blame him but staff should have sit him no way a injury heels playing him... raptors are no joke get ready for Monday

    Let me guess what he will say....the ball was sticky, there was no hustle, we got to move the ball better.

    Its getting so damn sad that I can already predict his script.

    Harden can get badly injured, unless he sits out for a few games.
    We need him for the long haul.

    its getting pretty old by blaming Lin for everything.......and you think you know basketball? all you posers don't know ****! this team ain't going to win anything with howard, harden, or the dumb ass coach.

    much ado about the bench player. only fools will blame the loss on a sub. Starters are accountable for the losses.

    Worst QT played by Lin this season.

    Just need to chalk it up and bounce back on Monday.

    Harden is hurt. He need rest.

    This season still young.

    I was mad as hell at Lin's performance in 3rd QT. Now I have calmed down :)

    Lin was horrid, and I might get some hate from people, but Harden is very one dimensional, he's eeen exposed to be very much a jumper shooter with a bit of handle.

    3rd quarter was where rockets lost the game. TT was all ready out after doing a good job to start the 2nd half.
