    Rockets stopped playing in that 2nd quarter. They took their foot off the gas

    18 points is not a big lead

    They let their foot off the gas. I wanted to go into half-time with a 35+ point lead.

    Ariza and Johnson just should not play more than Gordon and Luc.

    lol we don't respect the clippers at all. i'm expecting doc to coach them up at halftime actually. hopefully we come out focused cause you know in the locker room the guys are just going to be pumping up harGod. we won't lose but i'd like to embarrass the clippers.

    Rockets need to keep it going.

    Get and keep it around 25

    I think they good as long as I don't watch it on ESPN

    we've seen before this team lose games they had control of.

    Can't wait to see Beadle's usual sour expressions when talking about Harden.

    I think that first quarter set the bar so high that I was legitimately disappointed every time the clippers scored. They shouldn't have reached 30, much less 40 pts on the half if we kept up our defensive intensity. I guess I just wanted the Rox to set an alltime low in points allowed against this bum team

    Yeah, I'd like to HUMILIATE them but we let up in the 2nd defensively... hope we put the hammer down in the 3rd...make them quit.

    Wasn't he out with a sore throat?

    Must've been recording another episode of Acapela With Capela

    They should have included Harden's pause for a moment of silence.

    That's definitely true, our rotation hierarchy should be like this:
    Harden/Paul
    Clint/Gordon/Luc
    Ariza/Johnson/Tucker
    Nene/Anderson

    ESPN is going to play the Harden ankle breaker 20 times tonight. Plus Wesley Johnson even has a smile on his face after the play!:eek:

    This blowout would have been sweeter if Blae Griffin was still at the Clips
