    Ok this **** is just dumb. You're just pulling stuff out of your ass now to find a scapegoat. You could say, "if Howard got one more rebound we could've won" but it didn't happen. So just shut the **** up. Damn.

    Harden cant rise like that. I wish he could use a screen and rise for a jumper but the midrange is not loved here

    Thompson and Curry played top notch d to stop the ball on the break. The middle wasn't there and it was unlikely to result in a whistle if Harden forced it.

    I'm not really into moral victories. We could've won this one. I won't say we should've cuz there's no guarantee a shot goes in, but this was a missed opportunity. Both games were to be honest.

    If you wanna try to look at the glass as half full, we're able to compete with this team in their building, so you figure we'll play even better at home. But on the flip side, the Warriors are great on the road. Almost as good as we are at home.

    We'll see what happens. The Rockets obviously have to win Saturday and Monday. If they do, then it's a series again. Otherwise, my pick of Warriors in 5 could come to fruition which I hope isn't the case.

    I hope there isn't a hangover effect from this game. It's way more disappointing to lose that way then it would have been to just miss a shot.

    No timeout was right. That's a fastbreak and the D was not yet set.
    Harden was playing like a HOF tonight. Almost perfect. No complaints. Only a last second hesitation cost the game. That's basketball. That's life.

    Cant blame Mchale for this. Harden is at his best going down hill on even double teams. He rushed and then got timid because its such a pivotal possession, he pulled back instead of just driving hard to the basket. If so, series is tied 1-1. Cant blame Harden, cant blame mchale on this one. Just a bad turn of fortune.

    Rockets played a great game. Incredible come back after the refs tried to break our back. Proud of the Rockets.

    Jones doesn't pass. ;)

    But if he gets the ball, I think he slams it in.

    These two losses suck. Two opportunities to take a game on the road and not taking care of business could seal the series. That said, I am very confident in playing at home. We showed we can play with theses guys. Make this a three game series and shut the national media up. I can't listen to to anymore stories about Currys warmup routine.
