    Roy: Our energy & effort was good in the first Q. I thought it was good to start the 2nd Q, then we had a let down. They were able to get some easy shots off the PnR. We lost our intensity. Now what I'm looking for in the 2nd half is for us to build off what we did to finish the 2nd Q. It's a chance for us to mature. We've had big leads before & let teams back in the game. I'm hoping we come out in the 3rd Q with the right mindset so we can establish good habits and finish the game off the right way.

    Good stuff. Thanks a lot.

    I'm sorry?

    I SAID THANKS A LOT!

    I hate this mouthbreathing dumbass. "Harden is just scoring more because he's doing what his new coach wants"

    At one stage we were on pace for 90 first half points. Few turnovers and missed shots took that momentum right out. If it were not some fluke Felton and Johnson shots we would be up by 25 or more.

    Guys, they are missing their two best players, their backup pg, and their coach. Lets not get too excited about this win. A fully healthy Clippers team vs the Rockets without Harden and Anderson would look similar.

    I started enjoying Chuck a lot more when I stopped taking him seriously. He's a funny guy, that Chuck.

    Turrible.

    Ha! Comic relief at it's finest. Great player in his day, too.

    Nope, we have guns on our bench remember. We'd give them a run for their money, no doubt.

    There was a reason why Speights didn't get Ryno money. The guy has poor cardio fitness who would have thought as an important bench contributor for the Warriors.

    Yeah, but Hargod has a D in it. Try something else like Har-Diety... wait.. that has D too. Maybe Harden has put the d back in his life. Who took his D last year?

    Don't listen to any of the TV pundits. Their job is to stir **** to drive up viewership. All that matters is Scoreboard.

    Also why is the lower deck of the Toyota Center always empty?

    Okay Harden, let's get these assists up. We need that triple dub before the end of the 3rd!

    Damnit. These Clip Commentators called Harrell "NeNe" earlier and they just said that might be the first shot Harden blocked in a while (It was last game, guys). Unprofessional. Boo. ;)

    My goodness, double or foul Jordan when he's in the paint. Another assist by Harden.

    A lot of folks must be on vacation. Yeah, it's weird. I wish they'd let folks in the cheap seats move down when it's obvious that the people aren't showing up.
