    Bev deserves to start game 2 with Brooks backing him up.

    Also TJones needs to play more for either Asik or Smith.

    This reminds me of when Portland played the Rockets in 2009. Inexperienced team, first time in the playoffs.

    Okc has too much experience and weaponry.

    It took Harden having a career game to steal one against them.

    Ibaka is the X factor tonight. We don't have an answer for him on either end.

    Stop yelling at eachother over meaningless ****. We are outclassed - simple. I didn't think they were allowed to show live rape on TV though...

    Bev's been great. Of course, we were better with him today, that's when we made a run. I loved the Lin-Bev lineup where we actually made the run. I hope we can bring it down to at least 13 or so, and start with a Bev-Lin-Harden backcourt.

    For a guy with virtually no help tonight, harden is having a pretty decent game...

    Three balls not falling at all for us tonight.

    Let's hope Lin can improve his shot during the summer. His strength definitely doesn't fit this team's future. Talk about who's the PG is irrelevant. Harden is the franchise player...PERIOD. If Harden is going to play PG, it's up to Lin to adjust, not the other way around. Now, if only they'd fire McHale just just straight up sucks at coaching.

    everyone is playing (trolling) blaming game in this thread. we all know every Rockets playe make no difference to take credit or get blamed in this game, we are watching the game and the game is being played. however trolling can't be trolling without negativity. remember basketball is a 5 men game.

    Damn IBAKA has improved his game a lot in the last 2 seasons. Now he shoots like bosh

    Yeah, you're right, the way he's played that seems a bit low, I was thinking -45 or so.

    This sums it up ! You chose to play lazy ass non inspired basketball against the worst team in the West. This is what it gets you. We are overmatched. We are a 3 pt. shooting team with ZERO inside game. Absolutely no dribble penetration. No mid range game either.
