    McHale finally making an adjustment, 12 minutes too late.

    Much better effort by the Rocks and the Blazers are showing the effects of the B2B

    He did talk about in pre-game that he need to run the floor hard against Aldridge to tire him out. Looks like it's been kind of messing with the other areas of his game tonight a bit though.

    Hoping Blazers run out of steam after tough game last night. Need to continue hard doubling Aldridge and Lillard.

    Why does Morey not scramble to get a guy like Kaman when he's available to the cheap? Portland with 4 7fters on their Roster? WTF? Kaman, Meyers, R. Lopez, Aldridge and god knows who else... ****...

    I've never seen a player get away with pushing off as much as he does on that post move.

    What Harden did (flop) is the only time I've seen the refs call him for pushing off against us. Other players should learn, if he's going to use that off hand flop and well and act. Don't give a F, if it takes that move away from him then that is what matters.

    Where did all the posters go who were ranting the Rockets don't try and the spectators should get their money back and we'll never get out of the first round?

    I said "if we continue to play like this we will never get out of the first round". Yes I am still around and rooting for the Rockets.

    Harden is Heart, Hustle, and Grind.

    Further Harden gets his contact attacking the basket. LA is a finesse player who literally falls away from the basket more often than he attacks the basket.

    That offensive rebound by Smith was incredible and Harden is not of this world.
