    in fairness, I think the Rockets were 9-0 or something when Terry starts ....

    but McHale shied away from what was working during the game in favor of 'veteran presence' to finish it and it ended up biting them bad...

    Prigs would of been a much better handle and no big in the lane hurt too. Capella was doing great...this loss is definitely (partially) on McHale

    well, we weren't missing 3 players. we were missing 5.

    3 were our frontline. 1 was our starting PG.

    pretty big deal.

    What a terrible loss. This is the game we will look back on when we finish 3rd or 4th in the standings.

    Tie for second in the West being top 3 team with top 5 guys missing games.

    When Parker was injured wizard Popovich was losing game left and right and all of the sudden team is healthy and the winning.

    Why Wizard hall of fame Popovich couldn't defy the odds?

    didn't everyone see Harden on that play? Derozan didn't have space or a good shot, he just made it. Harde was RIGHT there, hand not only in his face but just in front of the ball. GREAT defense. better offense.

    I think this is the very first game McHale ended the game with Jet, lately he has gone to Prigs to end games, and oddly enough Nick was out there when I feel like he should have gone and sat down(he still played well though) this must have been a game were McHale was trying to see what certain players will do and how they would respond to competition.

    I put this blame on missing Free Throws and Turnovers this game was winnable,but we hurt ourselves more then the refs.

    With Ariza's length DeRozan would not have been able to get that shot up

    We were missing three starters and our sixth man. It was nice to just be in it that late. But, everything about those last few minutes pissed me off. The coaching, the execution, and the Refs. I knew the missed free throws would lose us the game as well. Incredible to miss 13 free throws being down 4 key pieces and still nearly win it.

    The biggest problem was our rebounding. Should've kept Dorsey or Capela on the court.

    The weekend happened and Harden got drunk. These are the consequences.

    But he can probably drive by him. You never know Ariza is not unbeatable either.
