    Is James actually hurt?

    He seems so passive.

    Not right.

    Definitely not hung over as they've been in the bubble.

    Rockets are showing another level of intensity on D. They can lock down when they need to.

    defense has been excellent...if the offense wasn’t so anemic this would already be a wrap

    Watching Harden work so hard to get guys wide open looks and they brick them every time is insufferable.

    Like i said, we have poor 3point shooters. We just try to compensate shooting talent with sheer volume. Thats the biggest reason why our open 3 shots are comparatively low.
