    Rockets are a really slow team for all their skills. Literally the entire starting lineup is of below average speed for their position. Randle is faster than anyone out there. Let alone the rest.

    That would make things worse. Remember how bad we played after the all star break last season?

    I hope we keep losing, it’s time for serious changes to this teams mentality. I want to hear guys fighting in the locker room, not accepting Harden screaming at them anymore and MDA holding guys accountable. Maybe CP3 can light a fire under their asses!

    It would be nice to beat the Lakers, but the goal is to beat the Warriors.

    Stats aside Harden has been a huge problem the past 2 weeks.

    Lack of athleticism is killing this team, and it starts from Harden

    Getting blown out by the Lakers.

    FFS. This is pathetic. Alright guys, 18 game minutes to change this up. This is pivotal.

    I take back what I said about the Rockets being a championship squad. They are terrible now.

    Harden is not playing like he did early on. Missing bunnies and missing 3s horribly.

    Ryno is just bad at this point. This feels eerily similar to the 12-13 season where the Rockets lost almost every game out of the gate.

    It’s irritating as a fan because I really thought this team was going to be special. Coach has lost this team and has no clue how to right the ship.

    Losing all these games including both at home to the Lakers is a inexcusable. I feel bad for CP3...

    Mostly, due to injury, Harden and Paul should be DNPing.

    I'm dead serious when I say Gerald Green should start over Ryan Anderson. At the least, Gerald Green is athletic enough to stick with guys like Kuzma. Anderson simply cannot defend any mobile PF, he's got lead feet.
