    They’re letting James shoot too... if we didn’t miss all the wide open shots we would be up by 10+ at least

    Hate say it....I hope MDA has enough sense to give his guys some breathers because if we lose because he refused to play more guys, it’s his fault.

    o_O........ we looked good except for the final 3min but our shots are off. If we made 1/2 of those this board would be exploding.

    I dont understand why Harden completely abandons his mid range game... He cant hit a 3 to save his life yet he refuses to take mid range jumpers, it's just super frustrating to watch as a fan.

    We only have 6 TO total, I’d take that, we just can’t hit an open shot

    Agreed. I don’t think there’s lack of effort. Harden and Paul want this. But the legs don’t look great on their shots. And this is only game 5. No matter how many times guys tell you they’re good, it’s obvious they’re tired. Have to get something from the bench.

    While I am a Warriors fan, I think the Rockets are doing an amazing defensive job :( They are forcing Warriors to play ISO ball. If they can continue do this in the second half they are going to win.

    Damn everyone get so down so quickly here...Rockets have shot the ball so poorly and we're still tied. Rockets D was great, a few crap calls and non calls by the officials.

    I know the refs are messing with us (Ariza with 3 could???), but how many wide open 3s did we miss? Is it fatigue for playing tougher defense?

    I know we had an opportunity to bury that team and we didn't.

    Lets hope we get the ship straight on offense.

    They're both obviously dead tired and are on pace to play 40+ again.

    Mike needed to rest then in the 2nd and failed badly. I mean at least bring in Ryno for the last offensive play or something. It's an epic fail to not have played Ryno or Luc when David West was in.

    Seems fitting that this game is tied at the half.

    It's goiing to be a knife fight for the rest of the way. No spoons allowed.

    Need to find a way to get the ball to PJ more often. He has been locked in on offense. Hope they make that adjustment at half.
