I wonder if he actually gets time in their rotation or ends up being signed just for depth.

Spurs are scary man, Pops can eat Dantoni alive if things fall into place. Houston needs to avoid I-10.

Article said for depth as they only have 2 bigs in their 10 man rotation, to go along with 6 guards and 2 wings.

Dude stfu, you post every week how scared you are of the spurs and are clearly a pussy who thinks we are playing Timmy, Parker and manu in their prime. Just stop. No one is afraid of these spurs and I guarantee the rockets are trying to avoid anyone so go tremble in your closet and hope we avoid them.

dude, wake up, Harden had to ejaculate 61 points last time to win. 

It’s a fucking regular season game. You are a ducking idiot. No one is afraid of the spurs in a 7 game series.

Regular season lives matter.  

We have won 3 of 4 from the spurs and a win is a win. Who cares if Harden had 61 to get it. It's funny you are scared of pop yet Harden just dropped the most points on a pop coached team and instead of praising Harden you make it like that's the only way we can beat them is if that happens. Just stop trolling and stfu.

Blazers are still hot on the Rockets tail. A win in Milwaukee would be nice...real nice.

Jusuf Nurkic done for the season has to help the Rockets case.

House is on but Tucker is way off.

A make from him would be nice. This is a great test for the Rockets and I am confident that they'll be in it until the end. 

Jesus WTF was Clint thinking trying to dribble after getting the rebound after the Giannis miss? Well at least D'Antoni called time out after falling down 5 points. I wonder if the Rockets will ever learn to defend the 3 point line. 

the rockets keep fucking turning it over just trying to bring the ball up the court.

There were about 6 turnovers that quarter and three of them were on absolutely stupid passes. Lucky to be down only 5. 

Yeah our carelessness with stupid turnovers is why we're down right now. Hopefully Harden can get hot in the 4th quarter.

The Rockets can win this game. Just tighten up the defense and the ball handling. Maybe tell Shumpert to not run point.

I think Gordon is traded after this season. He thinks he's on the same level as Harden and Paul.

Shumpert is a poor mans House

If Faried is out for the playoffs in favor of Shumpert, the Rockets are going to underwhelm.

Maybe play House as opposed to Gordon since he's hobbled.

Yeah D'Antoni, maybe trot out a different line up after this timeout. Sending the exact same one out after the last timeout this quarter didn't work and the Bucks went on a 6-0 run. 

CP3 not paying attention and got stripped. Team doesn't want to be here tonight. Just not a good showing.

that corner 3 was zero for 44 or something.  Tucker couldn't hit the rim at all.  Gordon should've shot more. 

Good win tonight. Just a shame we're not in control of our own destiny for the 3 seed. Portland will probably take it unless they collapse

You do realize that the Rockets and Portland will essentially be tied after tonight?

They have 1 fewer loss + own the tiebreaker. They are essentially 2 games ahead of us and Rockets have 6 games left.

And are missing their 2nd best player for the rest of the year.

Looking at the Blazers schedule, the Rockets need them to drop both of their games against the Nuggets. The Nuggets have won both meetings with the Blazers this season, but the margin of victories were 3 point sand 1 point.

The Rockets remaining schedule is Kings, @Kings, @Clippers (2nd night of a back to back), Knicks, Suns, @Thunder. The Rockets have to win out, period. 

Edited by UDontKnow

The only hope we have is to win out and hope they pick up two losses.  It is possible given the remaining schedule strengths but it does seem unlikely.
