    You know it's bad when James has as any turnovers as field goals made.

    ****ING CLEAN

    send in Tyson and murder a ref .

    this is where i disagree with MDA . He has balls to go all in on small ball but he doesnt have the balls to make it a knife fight , hes too nice, an " aw shucks" type guy.

    Thats how come you have 0-27's and 2-25's because he thinks " aw shucks the tide will turn eventually"

    No initiative , no giving another guy a chance, no benching his stars , no deviation from the plan ... ever.

    The refs could eject a rockets player for having an untucked jersey and MDA would take it lying down.

    When this team brings fire it looks great , especially if we hit shots . But that fire isnt coming from MDA , he adds nothing in that department.

    Harden’s 3 ain’t even close...if even Russ could realize he should stop shooting so many threes, Harden should too

    Clippers won’t let him get all the way to the rim, and his 3 pointer is trash, so how is he gonna dominate? This is why he needs to diversify his offense. Get a post touch. Shoot some midrange. It will never happen tho. Those parts of his game are dead and gone.

    14-15 Harden had it all

    That's what I was saying. It's not like the Clippers have played great defense.... we've just too many really wide open 3pt shots tonight.

    The bad thing about tonight is everyone is going to hype up the Clippers after this. But the reality is, this is our worst 3pt shooting performance since game 7.

    I'm still not scared of the Clippers. They've caught us on a really bad shooting night. They've banked on us missing a lot of 3pt shots and they're gamble has paid off. Awful tactics, but it's worked. If we shoot around 35% from the 3pt tonight, we're winning this game.

    This has to be an NBA record shooting 7% from behind the arc.

    It's a shame he still needs so much without Capela.

    It takes a huge blowout for Carroll to get PT.

    sorry i just don't trust d'antoni in the playoffs against clearly superior coaches.

    even if they miraculously make it out the west, coach bud will embarrass him.

    If James Harden’s effort is lacking in an important game on national television, he deserves the slander.

    I keep hearing about how the Clippers have played great defense, but they really haven't. They've banked on us missing a lot of open shots.
