    Griffin has really taken his game to the superstar level. WOW. Did NOT see this coming after his regular season.

    Yeah, let's fire Jon Barry. Then fire Hubie Brown. In fact let's fire all announcers and replace them with Clutch Fans posters. :rolleyes:

    Whose the initial line of defense. Just throw everyone at Howard. Great theory

    Great play by Griffin. We are just being outplayed right now.

    If this thug Clippers team wins the title, I will be physically sick. Here's hoping the Warriors (ugh) sweep them in blowouts each game.

    As for the Rockets... Sigh...

    OK really need a quick run so we can keep in the game. I still believe we can pull this one out of the hat

    Harden needs to hone his jumper in the off-season, it's either feast or famine with him

    It's his fault that he could not make minor adjustments - take Howard out after the flagrant, try a different lineup, call a timeout

    Harden doesn't realize he's not Griffin and can get away with anything

    If I was Harden I would effing punch the refs in face after being fouled. Refs being paid by Blake and CP3.

    Because the Rockets defense has been horrible in the playoffs. On the road, it's been non-existent. Seriously, we've given up 128 and 121 to the Mavs in Games 3 and 4 and 124 and 128 in Games 3 and 4 to the Clippers. And tonight, LA is on pace to score at least 115 and probably more than that.

    Couple that with the Rockets offense being so reliant on the 3-pointer and having only one playmaker in Harden and inevitably when the shots stop falling, the other team is gonna go on a huge run. It doesn't matter if it's a broken down, old team like the Mavs or a young, athletic bunch like the Clippers.

    There is a lot to fix this offseason. But if they don't get the defense straightened out(and for real this time, not a good start and then fading as the season wears on), it won't matter who they add to the roster.

    So is Jones the only rocket trying now? Stole the inbound pass, being aggressive...
