    he never had the ball in his hand, I don't know what people want.

    All season, "I DONT TRUST HARDEN WITH THE BALL, CP3 CONTROLS THE TEMPO BETTER!!" Well here is CP3 with the ball in his hands

    They make choking an art form. I can’t believe I had faith in this team.

    Paul played like **** in the first quarter and ended up with 11 points. That's a bullshit stat for someone who is on a max contract. He has played bad this series.

    I’m as pissed as anyone but let’s be real, if Durant misses the last two games this series is a wrap.

    Rockets didn’t deserve to win. All they had to to was understand the opportunity in front of them and perform. Not outperform, but just PERFORM, and they would’ve won this game

    Wouldn’t be surprised if we lose game 6 even if KD sits

    I almost hope Durant plays. Houston historically have made asses of themselves after an important player of the opponent is out with an injury.

    Don't be mad at them they did their job... be mad at Harden, Paul and D'antoni

    Harden was letting Chris work the ball which never happen

    Durant didn't play two times against us this season, guess what, the Warriors won both games.

    Shaq and Chuck both think he tore his achilles.

    He cannot even win any jump ball- in game or at the beginning of games. Morey’s Analytics failed on Capela

    Bottom line is, Rockets don't have a killer extinct. Harden, Paul and Capela are all soft except PJ Tucker

    I blame Paul, Gordon, and Capela for this. Had any one of these three played even close to their regular season average then we win this game.

    I'm still optimistic (not very though). But this is beginning to feel like we're being set up for another San Antonio style elimination. The star player is out and someone like Iggy or maybe even Livingston will look like the best player in the world and Harden will score, like, 12 points...
