    This game shows why I have little faith in MDA come playoffs time. Just relying on effort on D and threes on O is not enough.

    Problem is Clippers are even more depleted so the above excuses ring hollow.

    To chime in on YOLO's comments:

    Rockets are 6-1 when they shoot 50 threes, and never made less than 18 doing so. And they've only failed to make 10 once. And they are 6-3 when making 12 or less.

    You can hate the system, but you're misrepresenting it by saying "Constant 9/34, 14/50 games" Maybe point to the defense a little more when searching for reasons for losses.

    How does Doc maintain his hairline at age 60?

    No Harden on the floor so can't blame him for our defense sucking.

    Harden has proven to carry teams to 50+ wins regardless of which system is being played, so has paul. Because the rockets are my fav team i have to agree with everything they do? What’s your fkin problem?

    Clippers bodying the Rockets hard and getting away with whatever they want.

    Rockets getting called for every touch foul.

    Can’t win like that. Very unevenly called game.

    PJ is having his worst game of the season. Clippers might be his kryptonite.

    Rockets with some stupid plays on offense. We need to take care of the ball since we dont have harden to bail us out.

    It’s just injuries ! When we get James back the groove will also come back ! Trade deadline help and Roxs are back no doubt

    Hand checking is being allowed on Chris Paul this game.

    I wonder why?

    Rockets play soft and need to get tougher.
