    Rockets are really buying in on their defensive identity. I love that.

    I haven't seen a euro step from Harden in a couple years. He even bust out old favorites like the step back turnaround in the paint a couple games ago.

    Yes. He's arguably their best player if not second behind DeAaron Fox who has been fantastic this season.

    IMO , MDA is getting too cute . Why are we playing small right now . Shouldn't one of our goals be to limit Paul and harden's minutes ?

    Why did hartenstein get so little time ?

    I love green , but the 8 we played worked so well last game . I understand wanting to give PJ rest , but Clark subs in for him .

    Anyways , these are nit picks

    But he gives 100%, goes ALL out. I like that.
    Just needs to keep it under control. Still like a deer in the headlights

    All of a sudden EG can pass? That would be huge if he can keep that up.

    We may hit close to 80 by halftime, nothing boring about that. Rearview mirror says "Objects in mirror are closer than they appear" For Rockets it should say "Rockets in mirror are closer to a 8-7 team than a 7-7 team." Send us more mediocre teams with better than .500 record.

    That's three PnRs initiated by Gordon ... all wide-open dunks...2 to PJ and that last one to Capela.

    New wrinkle @Deuce

    Defenses are not ready for a PnR coming from a different guard.

    Looks like James and Clint have been working on that backdoor move.
