    If Harden doesnt flip the switch in the second half, he is going to be torched and right fully so.

    "Mental midget" title is on the line.

    It is kind of interesting watching the raw feed. I don't get the replays commentary or multiple angles so it feels more like actually watching a game in person. Since there isn't actually a crowd can hear much more of what the players are saying.

    And to think, with Dort taking all the shots, you would think the Rockets would up double digits...BUT, Dort scoring is the main reason it's only a 2-Point margin at Half

    Either flopping of nut punching. That's his game.

    Why are people b****ing about the foul at the end? If Paul is rewarded with a foul because he throws himself in the air at people, that’s not Covington’s fault. That’s the NBA’s fault for the continued allowance of this behavior. They don’t give a **** about their product.

    So far with Dort off the floor , instead of attacking Harden passed off for two turnovers. I rock with Harden but there are no excuses today.

    Im hoping okc's shooting will cool down some in the second half. Can't believe I am typing this but surely Lu Dort won't continue his play will he?

    Harden and Westbrook combine for 80 million dollars this year in salary and together they've scored 18 points on 6 of 15 shooting. Lou Dort has 18 points on 12 shoots. Frauds.

    Doesn't the NBA fine for apparent flops? NBA needs to tag the NBPA President's pocketbook.

    We are paying two players the Max right now. If one doesnt ever show up like Westbrook... then the opposing teams just swarm around Harden.

    the rockets are not a good one possession team. too many mentally weak players, low iq players, and unskilled players.

    gotta go up in the 4th up by double digits.
