    Do we blow it up? Or, do we continue to pretend like we have a chance of winning the championship?

    Our defense isn't good enough. Wall and Harden don't work well together. Also, when you're sacrificing our main scoring threat for another player, it's always going to end badly.

    He's letting Wall take over. Also, Silas wants Wall to take over. Wall simply cannot take over and carry us to wins.

    You guys asked for this and now you're not happy.

    James Harden looks so disinterested this year... makes me wonder if he is intentionally throwing games

    Silas is a young coach who is in a tough situation. The Rockets are a team in transition. Time to blow it up

    It’s still early in the . It’s the first month of the season. We seen how far Harden iso can take us. We need something else. Be patient

    32 minutes & 3 rebounds from your starting Center. Good Lord. Cousins had 4 rebounds in 8 minutes.

    Wood needs to take some pride in his rebounding and rim protection instead of just worrying about flashy offensive numbers.

    He shot 50 percent from field tonight and is currently shooting over 46 percent on the season. You're not very smart are you?

    Even with an ankle injury, Harden's foot not nearly as slow as you Pete.

    He cares more about developing his offense. Doesn’t look like he gives 2 s**** about playing defense.

    It's a double special.

    It would be difficult for the Lakers to win twice against the same team on the road.

    But Lakers are the champs, who knows.

    Harden can’t carry a team of (mostly) scrubs like he used to be able to.
    Good shooters join the Rox and then LITERALLY forgot how to shoot/make
