    This team should be embarrassed. I’ll say it again. I don’t care about Harden scoring 30 points more than 30 games in a row if the Rockets can’t follow with a win. Giving up a 26 point lead at home is embarrassing. Losing to an underwhelming and injured Twolves team is embarrassing..

    We have too many brickers.

    If we could play solid defense, we should have won the game already.

    Teague killed us thanks to CP0 and his declining defense

    He's a center that wants to shoot at the 3 pointer line, doesn't set proper picks, doesn't rebound/box out well, all he wants to do is camp at the 3 pointer line and shoot 3s. Literally all he had to do was imitate Capela, but he was too garbage to do it. Hence he got traded.

    That’s what the coach supposed to do. Implement a offense

    I was saying: we’re content with the 5 seed and getting waxed in the second round. My bad

    Our defense is soooo bad. As good as Harden is, he can't beat teams by himself with his offense.

    CP3 is an every other night kind of guy right now .

    Hopefully he can get his body into good enough condition where he can go hard for like 5/7 games in a series .

    Last game Chris has a totally different pep to his step and was bouncing around .

    Chris needs to double down on that yoga and ice bath routine .

    Can anyone name anything more cringeworthy than our defense?

    Where's the emoticon for when you laugh so much you cry?

    That defense out of the sideball with 1:30 left was.. I don't even know what it was. I'm speechless.

    And the fact there's multiple, multiple of those idiotic/embarrassing plays each and every quarter is troubling.

    But hey. We got Mike 'no changes' D'Antoni as our coach.

    Let's expect the same embarrassing effort for the rest of the year.

    Points in the paint, rebounding and the refs not calling fouls hurt the Rockets tonight. Defense in general was an issue as well.

    LOL PG can't single handedly carry the rockets he needs a superstar to play with

    you still remember how he did in the Pacers right?

    no one on our team does that. Shooting threes..............well that is our game plan, so not really a good argument there. 4 straight games shooting over 50 percent from three is quite nice. Scoring from everywhere with them though

    he didn't need to imitate Capela because Capela only has one way to play. Chriss has a few more strings to his bow as far as shooting goes
