    I can't believe, after the last 2 seasons, that I'm watching a Rockets team where Westbrook is this much more effective than Harden.

    The end of Q1 and beginning of Q2 line up of Russ / Rivers / House / DMC / Green. Didn't let the deficit go further. They're still getting easy baskets, but scoring some back.

    RoCo in now for Rivers.

    When the GM/coach is telling players where they can and can't shoot on the court, it's makes the shooters hesitant. Basketball players are not robots. Just let em hoop! The 3 and the paint hot zones, not the teams' only options.

    It’s such an odd season. A week ago I thought they could beat anyone and now I wonder how we can stop the Orlando Magic.

    Small ball is looking like a joke now. We can't win defensive rebounds, which are turning to 2nd chance points. Our paint protection isn't there. They're scoring paint points at will.

    It doesn't work if you don't have the right supporting cast.

    That no big man in the middle is starting to look like a colossal mistake. Took teams a week to figure out how to beat this.

    5 straight games down 15 in first half. How many more before something, anything, changes?

    Not really worth watching such laughable effort. Hope they pull it together, but doesn't look likely.
