    I think Beverley needs to give more assists

    I think you need to stop posting brotha because the Spurs are doubling Harden as soon as he puts it on the floor. Need to open you're eyes

    I dont think we can pull a surprise here, common sense is we lose as they exposed our imperfect game

    Rockets gotta do more tactically to win the battle of the tempo. We got put more pressure on them, even accepting sporadic mistakes. Front the big guys, take them out of the lane, put more bodies into the paint to force Kawhi make hard passes/decisions. Defend the p&r more aggresively (hard flash even trapping); of course full court press on their PGs and even Kawhi.... Rockets must be much more aggressive tactically, not only psychically. We can't compete against them 5on5.

    I would introduce Dekker, I think he can help us offensively and defensively, he's the kind of player who disturbs the Spurs, long athletic forward. Can help in the kind of D we should do, and can punish their big guys with penetrations better than Ariza/Anderson.

    Why don't you delete your Rockets fandom?

    MDA can't wait IF he can come with an adjustment to get the team rolling. Pop has got his number, MDA needs to make adjustments where in his past match ups with Pop have not gone well Team needs to come out focused and ready to play from the start. Can't afford to be down in 1st quarter. Also, can't afford to give 30 plus pts to the Spurs in the 1st.

    Go Rockets!!

    We need more better players to beat teams like this. The NBA has become so boring with only 2 teams dominating everything.

    Ne: "I played like shi*. The refs played the same shi*. It's not happening again." (Insert Ne's accent)


    Also, I'm hearing Rockets made some calls to Silver/League about calls against them. Should work in our favor. James was murdered.

    let's not forget that OKC went down 2-1 against SA last year...I still have faith

    take care of business in game 4...we're capable of winning a game 5 in SA

    Harden needs to bring that energy and aggression that he had in the 2nd half of game 3 into game 4

    he wasn't foul hunting or being all casual and lackadaisical...he was looking to score and get to the rim at will

    Ryno, u are the 2nd highest paid player on the team, show tf up for once at home...the difference between home Ryan and road Ryan was a little amusing at 1st, but it's gotten ridiculous now
