    The good news is that KAT has to eventually sit and he’s all they have tonight

    How many slow starts do you think it's going to take for our dumbass coach to ditch the small-ball lineup and bring in House as the starting SF?

    I also think this Rockets team is going to look this mediocre as long has Harden remains stubborn about putting up numbers in regular season games instead of resting his body...His shooting has been terrible for a while now.

    Bullard is all over House's d-ck on the Houston feed. Which thirsty Clutchfans member is he??

    We’re playing an inferior team. You should have expected this. It’s what the Rockets do this year.

    Our defense has been good. It's our offense that's been trash, and it's showing. Harden refuses to rest, and so, his poor shooting is going to continue to plague this team's offense.

    You speak truth. Shumpert makes House better.

    But seriously ... is rivers hurt ?

    Shumpert over rivers ? What kind of madness is this MDA ?

    That was a nice cut but shump has already passed up open looks and is not in the flow . Rivers makes the right choices when he is on the floor for us .

    Looks especially bad when you consider you could have rested harden .

    it appears he is dominating, but only 4-10 from the field. lets see if he has the energy to do this all game.

    Because the other teams know we have awful paint defense and they're exploiting it.

    Oh yeah, I forgot about him too. Teague abuses our best perimeter defenders (PJ and CP)

    Seriously

    I am not liking what I see out of Shump at this point

    He hesitated then ended up with a desperation shot that he had wide open 3 seconds before
    Drives me crazy

    This actually looks like the first game he has appeared to not be lost on the court.
