    Coach shouldve know that Minnesota was goin come out focused after giving up 50 pts in a quarter. They’re a vet team with some pride

    Why even come to the game if you're going to sit on your hands.

    thibs threw some new wrinkles in the defense which is slowing down harden and paul. plus the wolves are playing off emotion right now like in game 3.

    MDA will have to adjust to get harden and paul in better position to score

    MDA in the huddle shocked he has to ask a veteran squad to play more desperate. I guess they think they can put up a 50pt qtr any time.

    Rockets look disinterested. Sputter, sputter, sputter. Besides a few hot stretches, they have not looked good in the playoffs. At least show some intensity on defense. Hard to understand the poor shooting.

    Harden/Paul 1-10 FG for 3 points. Butler/Teague 8-15 FG 18 points. Our two guards need to pick it up!:eek:

    We’re supposed to put this team away tonight but James and Paul want to suck it up. Championship teams find ways to ease their road to the chip. This squad will make it a 7 game series smh

    it's pretty amazing. i mean these aren't tough shots. teague is making pull-up 3's, we're bricking literally wide open 3's. i've been watching the playoffs. i see role players make contested 3's. it does actually happen. just not for us it seems.

    (can't even finish typing and rose makes a contested 3 with harden jumping at him to make minnesota 6 for 9!!)
