    Im in shock of 2 things.

    How bad we shot.

    How bad NBA officiating still is.

    Holy ****.

    1.) Houston home fans are flat out pathetic. My God. SO QUIET, terrible playoff atmosphere.
    2.) SO difficult to have games where our TEAM shows up to play. Always just pick 1 from the role guys - Ariza, Bev, Anderson, Lou, Gordon
    3.) NBA officiating sucks no matter what team you support (except for Warriors/Cavs/Spurs?)
    4.) Gotta start taking mid-range jumpers when they're wide open instead of a contested shot in the paint (our opponents always end up having 20 block games)
    5.) No composure when the goin gets tough. Starts with Harden.
    6.) GO ASTROS!

    that's right.!
    like i said, it is so predictable that J-Harden takes the ball slowly to the front court, and dribble for several rounds, Either a three point shot, or a penetration. We need to play fast and move the ball around. This is how you build up your confidence with fluent ball movement, and then you have expect to shoot the ball into the basket...

    we need to try to play our rhythm, maybe not every time, but not the way we are doing now.

    no matter what Mike Dantoni tries, Greg Popovich will always make him play Spurs basketball

    Harden gave Davis a dirty look as he walked off the court. I would have cussed his ***** out, why not?

    I think we are just out coached and out matched. They made a lot of mistakes tonight and we still have no answers.

    They completely figured out our offense while breaking is apart on d with their post ups.

    It's not anyone's fault tonight. Just not a winning formula

    Harden's got to be a better leader. If he loses his composure and b****es about the refs the entire game the team will follow him.

    Wait, did you just figure out that we're not running D'Antoni's Suns' offense? Wow!

    Unathletic shooters can't play above the rim against two 7 footers. Need to shoot 60+ threes or play more athletic slashers who can finish.
