    I understand your point. At the same time, my little brain tells me that even if we win tonight there's no way we win this series giving up ~110 points per game.

    If you are on the Houston Rockets and you don't come out with a sense of urgency tonight, then you are not a Houston Rocket.

    116 actually. 110 was the average given up in the Mavs series.

    Serious question. Has there ever been a Rockets team this bad defensively in the postseason? Certainly not the Van Gundy or Adelman coached teams. And I'm pretty sure Rudy's Rockets were always good defensive squads.

    The Rockets score about 1.04 points per possession, so they needed more like 24 of those plays last game.

    Ladies and gentlemen, your Houston Rockets fans!

    2nd round of the NBA playoffs and you get, "I'll probably just watch the 1st quarter." This fan base is pathetic.

    Funny how players keep saying after a bad game they need to stop thinking about it and just move on. How about get mad, speak your mind and learn from it. The Rockets have played only 1 maybe 2 good games so far in the play-offs, think about that for a second.

    The 95' team at times were pretty vulnerable defensively IIRC. But yeah the JVG Adleman teams were pretty dominant on defense. The last three playoff teams under McHale have been absolutley pathetic defensively.

    lol, it is so very unlikely for this scattered un-unified team to win anything.

    Maybe I'm naive, but I still truly believe we can win. But ONLY if we start showing some heart and passion.

    People, how many years of watching playoffs are yall gonna realize all this **** is rigged. No other way to stop Harden than to foul. Numbers wise you can also foul the living heck out of the Rockets and win the game because we cant hit freethrows except for Harden, Terry, and prigs. Chill out and enjoy a few more days of basketball. Or turn to the Astros if you start getting depressed. I hear they are good this year.

    Rockets are good at bouncing back. Couple that with some adjustments and clearly defining some roles out there, and we will come out on top.
