D-Rose just went off on us tonight. We couldn't stop him

More like Luke Kennard. Rockets' 3 point defense was atrocious and Harden especially looked disinterested in guarding anyone.

  • He presumably doesn't have a problem with money at all. It sounds like you don't know what the fuck this entire situation is about, considering you think it's "hypocritical" for morey to operate under

so i check the score and 16-2 Spurs at Houston with Trainwreck the only Rocket scoring. The world is officially coming to an end.

If we can get Russ to stop shooting threes we can beat anybody

Or how about play a little better to start games? Seems like every game I’ve watched lately we are trailing at halftime.

They played really well in the first half last time they played the Spurs then had a 2nd half collapse.

While I wold prefer 4 solid quarters I'd much rather have the dub

It was a 4th quarter collapse against the Spurs last game. I think the Rockets outscored the Spurs by double figures in the 3rd. The problem I see is Harden has to expand too much injury to win games, because D'Antoni refuses to play his bench any meaningful minutes consistently.

That has been D'Umbtoni's problem his entire career and why this needs to be his last stint as Rockets coach. Fuck I would kill to have Rick Adelman back over this crap.

Good gawd I can't type worth a shit.

expend too much energy.

Memories of Yao passing to Scola from the high post. Good times.

Sucks seeing teams so much better coached go against us.

holy shit russ!

he's been bad russ since this post.

man this is great shit.  i hope all of you who only post on this thread to bitch are getting to see it.

I turned it on just in time for the rockets to go on a tear to win it. Good shit.

I was at a darn Xmas party that didn't have the game on. So I missed this. Looks like Russ went off. 

I'm assuming they tried some gimmick defenses to produce that many more shots for Russ than Harden? Nice F'n Win!!!

Edited by Horns RD Standard

That was the most entertaining regular season basketball game i have seen in a very long time

Holy shit I was watching the beginning of this game, they weren't really engaged. Missed the 2nd half when a basketball game broke out. Awesome. 

Harden finally stood up to Westbrook thank God.

Nice 15-0 run to close out the game.

That was fucking solid 

Avoid the 4, 5 and 8 seeds. This is all that matters for the playoffs

Other way around. Westbrook dominated the ball tonight. But Kenny Smith made a great point about the Rockets joining the Clippers and Lakers. Every night, the Rockets will have the best SG in the game, and a Top 3 PG. No other team can say that.

Now to avoid the letdown against the Suns tonight without Russ playing. I'm hoping for big things out of Chris Clemons.

I watched first things first this morning out of those shows and they said Westbrook was losing his cool and Harden got after him. When they were kicking Lou out the game I guess.

Anyway, if this team could really help that would be awesome. Green and Gordon coming back too.

Selective bias is selective.

That's like saying nobody but the T-Wolves have the best C, Bucks have the best PF, Mavericks have the best SF, & Nets have the best PG any other qualifiers you throw on there are thus extraneous.

I will say though the difference between #1 and #2 the various positions is a solid race at every single position except SG.  Who is the 2nd best SG? Beal? Mitchell? It falls off a cliff after Harden.

Why? There isn't any team that the Rockets should be scared of in the playoffs.

Game is tomorrow. And Russ should play since it’s not a back to back.

No letdown against a feisty Suns team albeit they were missing Ricky Rubio who's been averaging over 11 assists a game. Revenge game against the Kings in Sac-town tomorrow night.

Man I'd really like to get Kaminsky on this roster. With only a $5M salary, would be very easy to do.

Looks like this road trip is wearing on the Rockets, but they hold on to win in Sacramento. De'Aaron Fox missing 5 FTs in the 4th quarter helped provide a cushion, otherwise could have been a shitshow like the previous match up.

Hopefully we take care of business today on Christmas Day. 

Good tackling form from GS so far

Lol nice shot after halftime.

Looks like they gonna keep it close and not beat that big 11 point spread

How many chucks could a Westchuck chuck?

I would call it a chokelapse but they did only lead by 4 at halftime.  This team is a garbage dump 

No excuse for tonight's horrendous performance. Another data point towards not bringing D'Antoni back. At this point, it also looks like time to make a change in management/operations and get rid of the guy who brought in the last 2 head coaches.

First full game I have watched this year. Last full game I may watch this year. Ridiculous. They are nothing but a bunch of hoopers with no heart and will never win anything that matters.

Eh, once Gordon comes back they will have another guy chucking long 3s. The team is worn out from a long road trip and not engaged on Xmas against a bum team.

Long season, I feel like they can make a run against the two LA teams in the playoffs.
