    I have faith in Watson more than anyone in recent Houston sports memory after Hakeem. Chris Paul too if he wasn’t so injured all the time at the worst time. But Texans need a better coach for me to have real hope in playoffs

    Let’s just hope Hardens injury isn’t serious, and based on how we performed on defense tonight and the increase in production from Melo, let’s see how we do these next few games.

    If we start stringing several victories together in a row, then alright, wer’re getting our **** together but if not....*sigh

    Gordon and Clint playing like **** is a bit worrying . We need at least one of them to be good every night . Last year they were both good almost every night .

    This year they are both 0-4 lol . Gordon has shown some good defensive flashes but he can't buy a bucket .

    Clint has energy every now and then but for the most part looks a step slow .

    Like am I crazy or is trading Capela for Thon Maker starting to make sense? At least Thon Maker is on a rookie scale contract. These Rockets are so bad that Holic' is starting to make sense.

    Harden was magnificent and Melo really looked solid in the 4th quarter. Capela had some moments but overall it was an up and down game for him.

    This L is completely on Eric Gordon. 11 points on 21 shots is horrific efficiency.

    If I see another second of Carter Williams ... this guy is putrid . Eric Gordon looks lost out there as well.

    That sounds like Millenials for ya!

    They don't remember those dark Kelvin Cato or when MVP Moses left us for Sixers to chase a ring. Or remember when we got ole ass Pippen, Barkley, add to Hakeem thinking we would be good.

    Melo needs to the ball. We are using him like Ryan Anderson but he's better than that. Tonite jus confirmed what I been saying. We aren't utilizing him right. Shouldn't wait till 2 minutes left to let him create

    How come Harden only played 32 minutes today and not 42 minutes? Was his ball itchy again today?

    This team is too talented to put up 89 points. They have to start running the ball more. No more walking this ball up and letting the defense get set. Trevor Ariza was the heart of this team. Should have payed him instead of Clint, but it's too late for that now. I think this team thinks they are the Warriors and they can turn it on anytime. I have a bad feeling about this year, just like I had a bad feeling about the Astros in the playoffs.

    Clint getting out rebounded by Mitchell sealed it for me. This guy has lost his hunger because he got paid.
