    Dantoni seems like a coach that never learns from his mistakes and is so stubborn in his ways. We already saw time after time that Harden handles the ball poorly in crunch time yet he still doesn't make CP3 handle it.

    If you root for the Rockets to lose you aren’t a fan

    Yeh and then doing that STUPID behind the back pass to a nearby 3pt shooter.... that they have to reach for awkwardly because its poorly executed.... or stolen.

    The Rockets have lost their mojo - they are not playing hard, they are not playing SMART, and they are getting outworked.

    Maybe that is a little human nature, but for crying out loud all those lazy passes and turnovers.....STUPID STUPID STUPID.

    This feels eerily like a cleverly disguised thrown game.... no way the rockets let gs off the hook.... if we beat them they fall out win an easy win over the griz would put them in the 8th seed..... not what we want....

    Rockets get a good run.... avoid thunder in the first and they don’t tip their hand.....

    Win win win

    Operation avoid OKC? :D

    OKC/GSW without Curry would be glorious entertainment.

    He has been double teamed off and on all season and it has been fine. This isn’t some new discovery the last 72 hours. The Rockets didn’t need this game, it means NOTHING to them. The game did mean a lot to the Thunder.

    The sky isn’t falling. The universe is the same as it was a week ago. Take a deep breath and calm down.

    Too many silly fouls and defensive issues by the bench with not enough offense to make up for it.. Nene, Green and Joe.

    It's all good, I would have like 68 wins for the year. I'll take 67 any year!

    Rocks should of killed Blazers (without Lillard and almost lost a game with a 24pt lead) and Suns (behind almost the entire game). They've been sleepwalking the last few games.

    yeah, maybe we low-key tanked the team. anything to keep them from the 8th seed. that is not a first round series a 1 seed wants. 6th or 7th would be idea, but anything but 8. jbb needs to come through for us and keep losing. if i was russ i would want gsw anyway so hopefully they keep trying to win.
