    Indiana is playing some really dumb basketball right now, Rockets need to capitalize.

    Great first half. Green and clark missed wide open threes that wouldve made our lead imposing (for a 1st quarter).

    Looks like a different team out there.

    Gary took the ball from Sabonis a very good rebounder..

    I wish CP3 would just shoot the ball when he is open.

    GG can't shoot anymore after shooting great last year... he has the Brewer disease

    I was going to say Shartenstain, but I'll flush it for now. I hope it doesn't stick.

    everyone seems to be motivated on defense now knowing biglydick will be back!

    Whelp, 4 unnecessary threes to end the quarter. I wouldn't mind if we weren't just holding it.

    If we had any offensive movement, or could hit open shots, we'd be up 15 lol.

    Overall, good quarter though.

    dang we had a lot of open looks from cp pushing the pace. missed a lot of open shots there. we're definitely playing with more fluidity on offense. defense had some surprising stops too

    defence is on point now for some reason, we just brick open 3's. Kinda like last year

    Gary Clark is pretty damn good on fundamental defense and rebounding. especially for a rookie

    No doubt the best quarter of basketball I have seen this season from the Rockets on both sides of the ball. I loved that extra pass out of the double team to Clark. Team ball is way more enjoyable to watch then iso to quick three or contested drive. Loving it.

    Chris Paul simply has to do more. He can't be a role player.

    Another scoreless quarter for CP3. The fact that I’m able to casually track that is a problem. He needs to get his buckets.

    I don't think hartenstein looks that bad y'all .

    He is a pretty smart player ; just gotta get used to the speed and physicality of the game

    He's so really keen on setting up, needs to take those open shots. Espeically when he's the best 3 point shooter out there

    Chris Paul's just out there. He's not doing anything. He's just dribbling.
