    I'm sorry but this behavior is just embarrassing. The right way to respond to all the trash talking is to beat them on the court which the Rockets didn't do. Trying to pick a fight in the locker room after the game is immature and deserves the punishment that will likely come. This is not how a professional basketball player should behave.

    probably the same attitude thats made the league as soft as it is these days. where they have to review even the slightest touch fouls

    personally glad the players are sticking up for their coach and even more so calling bluffs by wanna be tough guys like rivers who has no business talking in a suit. BG has been a crybaby for years.

    The investigation will just take longer and conveniently until those games pass.

    Business is business.

    Easy to say, but have no idea what was said to them, pretty sure it wasn't everyday trash talking.

    Anyone who sees this as a negative lacks foresight. This will undoubtedly be a bonding experience for the entire team knowing they got each other's backs now. It's also inevitably going to develop an us against the world type of mentality.

    Perfect time for all this to be happening with all our key guys returning.

    Mike D’Antoni is a 66 year old man. He qualifies for Medicare, as a 66 year old man, and he took a cheap shot elbow to the chest by a big goon.

    I love how the H-Town native Gerald Green just got on this team and he’s already in the “real ass homey” crew.

    The Clippers were so scared they called security to protect them from Rockets players. :D

    This show the team or some guys are passionate about each other. The rockets may get fined or suspended by the league who cares. Look at the bigger picture. Sure you can put a lil bit of blame on HOU but id say about 70% is on the refs. Gordon was spiked with the ball by #32 in the upper back/neck area. No call. D'antoni was body checked by #32. No call. LAC had a goaltend on gordons layup. No call. That play changed the dynamic of the game. As far as the other 30% thats on doc rivers. I watched all 4 qtrs and im looking 2 guys in suits and dekker taunting and being obnoxious to our guys everytime they by there bench. Would that happen with coach pop? Prob not. As far as bev saying this is LA no "soft **** here" seems like a taking a shot at htown. I met the guy at a game last year he seemed like an humble dude. Now im relieved his mid west ass is off our team. Undertalented is the best word i can use to describe him and the handicapped rivers when it comes to attacking cp3. I cant wait till February 28th.
