    Hard to blame the Rockets in this one. Simply unfair scheduling by the league. Schedule loss if there ever was one.

    This is going to be a big loss.

    • No/low energy play
    • Shots not falling
    • Drunk Harden
    • Bunch of guys hurt

    "Houston isn't known for being great defensively"

    Uh we're currently #10 in Def Efficiency.

    This already had schedule loss written all over it, but this game is also a friendly reminder that we're rather pedestrian without Capela

    No rim protection and no perimeter defence. Tired legs + 2 bigs missing.

    And we will tire ourselves out as we keep trying to make a comeback at an altitude after playing last night at an altitude.

    Ariza's defense degrades too much.

    Paul's D isn't what it once was. That was All-NBA first team D. That said, he's still a very good defender.

    Paul needs to be aggressively attacking with this second unit

    Very easy to miscommunicate when you run a stupid defensive scheme. Rockets have stopped switching like morons but Ariza and Johnson still got confused. Residual effects of stupid strategy.
