    Spurts of good defense. Several possessions where Rockets force pacers to shot clock violations. Effort is definitely there.

    Their shooting is still lights out though.

    I see why people don't box out . . .. . seems to be a automatic foul for players like Tate

    I feel we are kind of being unfair to House....but I really dont care, he was unfair to us in the bubble.

    LOL

    It does feel like we can never get over the hump and build a two possession lead.

    It's Harden time.

    Him, Wall and Gordon, play like stars and close it out.

    Wall and Westbrook aren’t too much different. Wall jsut has more defensive energy

    Just let Harden handle the ball and Wall provides some cutting or whatever. He is just not good as a ballhandler. He often just drives into the paint with the full intent of finishing, which leads to turnovers or unnecessary tough layups (that don't go in a lot of the time).

    He's 10/17 shooting. I think he's doing alright.

    Not sure why he is forcing the drive to the basket instead of mixing it up with passes and mid range shots.
