    Harden is getting picked apart on defense. Dude giving zero effort.

    Look on the bright side...Aldridge is on pace to score 30+ and Rockets are still up 4. This year's Rockets will be good! :)

    The one thing that worries me about this Rockets' team offensively, and has for years, is that we don't seem to know a good three from a three.

    If you look at the Warriors, Spurs, etc. they take a lot of good threes. We force them quite a bit.

    To me, Leonard looks like a rich man's Ariza. Not as impressed with him as other NBA media members are.

    Lol at the lack of defense on a guy who hasn't missed a three.

    Jones should never be on a premier power forward. He always get lite up. Other power forwards' eye light up when they see Jones on them.

    So Danny Green is 6/6 from 3, and LMA is 6/6. That's not good.

    What is good however, is that despite this the Rockets are only down 3.

    It's not even that.

    For example, Bev hit a good three then takes a horrible contested three with 15 seconds on the shot clock the next time down the floor.

    Those kind of threes are always avoidable but its the threes the Rockets seem to take quite a bit
