    poor clippers are so undermanned, I mean Kwahi has absolutely no help on either offense or defense.. hes only playing next to just one MVP candidate and two defensive player of the year candidates as well as just two sixth man of the year type players..

    Perpetual MVP player in the minds of America, Kawhi got clamped up by PJ. It was beautiful to watch.

    So thorough was the clamp-mentation, at one point PJ let the ball roll into the backcourt after Kawhi lost it off his foot, started clapping because he knew it was another opportunity to clamp him again!.

    masterful.

    Rockets could very well be 3-0 against the Clippers so far, but dudes always ready to slit wrists and jump off cliffs because the Rockets aren’t blowing out some mediocre team by halftime...

    I love how they’ve competed against the top teams for the most part this year, and they are 14-3 against teams below .500

    hopefully EG gives us a big boost when he returns and his scrub playing ways are behind him...we still have another level we can reach as a team

    Need more high energy role players to run and gun with Westy and Harden, not science.

    The longer the better!

    It was funny hearing Chuck talking about Harden's "foul trouble" being the reason the ball went to Russ a lot, because Harden only played 36 mins! You know a min and a half under his average for the season.

    Game ball goes to Westbrook and Tucker. Westbrook’s high energy was great but sometimes he tends to out run the ball lol. Something he will have to control as the season goes on but can be a momentum shift like it was today. Tucker’s defense on Leonard down stretch was superb. Leonard couldn’t get a comfortable shot off.

    Whatever the Rockets do at halftime with their defense...do that before the game.

    This is an instance where I say let Russ be Russ, that chip on his shoulder is why he plays so damn hard.

    That's a stacked team bruh. You really think they're going to lay down.

    They are good and stacked and we WON!

    you are right, watching it again he does swing up on the ball, but it still looks like he hits Westbrook fingers and I still don’t know how we got 3 free throws cuz he definitely didn’t gather the ball.

    Think the best part of that was Lou Wil getting tossed I could just see him hitting all his 3's in the final 2 mins like last time was really glad he was gone early that was a big part of this win i feel

    I don’t think you can challenge a tech? And it just got heated after that so there really wasn’t a time frame to actually challenge

    Hitting someone’s fingers is not a foul
