    Why do you feel bad for a guy making $20M/year bouncing a ball???

    I too felt Ryno was needed for the playoffs, but I have changed my stance, at least for this series. Our switch off rotations on defense are much tighter and crisp without Ryno.

    Still, look at Love having a breakout game with the Cavs, where he was pretty a non factor until the last game against the Raptors. Perhaps Ryno will have a epiphany too.

    You said "We've got to get some defensive magic from Luc or we really should try something radical.....like Qi. (Laugh all you want.at the suggestion."
    ( http://bbs.clutchfans.net/index.php...fs-round-2-game-3.290246/page-6#post-11727485 )

    So there is no taking out of context. You offered your radical solution. I said no one other than you would agree to that. Find me one basketball expert on Twitter than agrees with your solution.

    What was impressive is how we came out defeinsively. Intensity, focus and active switching that completely took the off their game. The defense fueled the offense and that silenced the crowd and game was over by half time

    Awesome how he mocked Zhou at the end, great comradery with this group which is something Harden said they never really had before. Keep this team together, most of it at least :)

    I may be hopeful, but every time the Rockets lose these playoffs its been like poking the bear.

    They want a championship bad, and I think the fear of failing is making them focus that much harder.

    If Utah doesn't come out guns blazing they are going to get wiped off the floor.

    That loss humbled the team and they know that its time to start playing like champions.

    Tucker has nice, warm eyes, but a face and body that says: " Don't **** with me...". Lol
