    we have to start off pushing the ball and running p&r. we cant afford to dig a hole running the half court offense tonight. Durant is going to get his so we have to get ours.

    If we can beat the Spurs...we got a chance against OKC..especially when they don't have Westbrook

    Lin scored 28 points last year against OKC so he had a good game against them before.

    We also needs to come out with intensity and play on that throughout the entire game.

    We need to limit the 2nd chance points, put a body on OKC bigs.

    Harden and Howard have to come out on a mission.

    Its going to be interesting to see how the Rox compete tonight. If they come out like some chumps and get stomped on their home court like they did in OKC, that will be very disappointing, but not surprising given their up and down, inconsistent play this year.

    ^^^^ they always get up to play us, they don't like us because of the bev/Westbrook & harden trade, Perkins don't like Howard, and sure lamb holds a grudge because he was drafted then traded. Let's get this rockets ! Come out fighting, no plays off let's goooo!!!! #REDNATION !!!

    Chalk this up as a loss. OKC are simply a terrible matchup for us even without Westbrook.

    What a bad way of looking at the game. I'm glad you're not a player or coach on the Rockets.

    Harden goes for 25 7 boards and 5 assist, and plays no D. We get blown out :(

    Parsons just needs to focus on trying to limit Durant anyway he can..we might have a chance that way

    I hope the Rockets surprise me tonight. It's tough playing a good team on a back to back game. The Rockets were completely embarrassed the last time they played the Thunder, so maybe they will be up for this game.
