    I could have done without the blown lead but it's still a good win. When you've got injuries and look like there's no hope, you need to grind and take whatever games you can.

    Not even going to lie, Harden MVP heroics aside, I think Gary won this game for the Rockets.

    @ me your hot takes.

    I missed most all of the game, streamed the last 2.5 minutes and got to see a 12-4 run, NICE!

    Had to watch the Spurs broadcast here in the hill country. The main thing Elliot harped on was the Rockets offensive rebounding!

    Lol. White might be the worst player in the league.

    How in the world does he get that many minutes, he was f*cking atrocious in every facet of the game.

    Despite the fact that your post is absurd .... it's clear as day that Clark gave the team a great energy boost and was a key factor for us this game

    2nd chance points are important!! And Eric and James finished off the game strong!

    I feel like the Rockets are slowly getting better at closing out games, and James Harden is, as always, damn clutch. It's so easy to take him for granted, but I think we all know he's one of the best to ever do it.

    Gotta give credit to the bench (and especially Gerald Green) for exploding in that 3rd quarter and helping the Rockets build a lead that allowed the team to go ice-cold and still be in the game.

    This is a very, very, very tough stretch to be missing the team's second best player but the good guys have beaten one strong opponent so far. I know they can keep it up.
