    I know he gets a pass because our team, but I need more effort from Harden on D. One of his worst games of the season individually and collectively as a unit and for some reason I think that relates. Regroup and give more effort tomorrow night.

    122 points generally should be enough to get your u a win but 136 freaking points allowed is putrid. No one played well on the defensive end.

    At least it seems Chris finally found something tonight so that’s a positive. Harden had a stinker after the first quarter. Tucker is a horror show right now and Gordon damaged the knee again.

    Should have played hartenstein more tonight . Give him a chance to settle into the game in the first half . Yeah I know he got stuffed , but he also had some good defensive possessions , some good rebounds , good energy , and yes a foul or two .

    He's got potential and we need to find out if it can come out . Give him some time to try catch a rhythm and calm down .

    Tucker 5/5/2 34min.

    I've loved the guy, but this is getting a bit ridiculous.

    Team looks like trash, D Morey sucks, blah blah blah blah knee jerk bullshit. Denver couldn’t miss ****, kudos to them for making an insane about of shots.

    Rockets were in this game even with Denver shooting an insane 62%..

    If I see Ennis go for a rebound that another rocket is getting and knock the ball out of bounds one more time I'm gonna lose my ****.

    Harden scored 14 second half points. Harden started out first half red hot only missing 1 three pointer and he missed a free throw!


    How the hell cp3 get more rebounds than James Ennis? Don't cp3 got the bad back!?

    Tucker hasn't really played well for the past 20 games or so.

    Not afraid of Denver. Capela owns them. This was expected once Capela was out. Same for tomorrow. They are just too big for us right now.

    Yes even if you have 1-2 good/great defenders, it doesnt negate the other revolving doors around you.

    Let's hope we help fix that situation before the trade deadline. I am just so anxious to see what Morey does to get us a great defensive player with some height and arms that reach out to the arc from the paint.

    i'm more annoyed that we consistently let no-names destroy us and get their career highs.

    Trier (knicks), okafor (pels), and now beasley, morris, and craig (nuggets)?!? what the freak ... i was deceived after the raptors game that we had some semblance of last year's defense. But what is this we're consistently witnessing now ...

    Ennis definitely smokes the same PCP laced weed as Corey Brewer
