    That looked like a good call after I saw the replay.

    Harden is a great defender.

    Good teams get themselves out of these situations. Great teams don't often find themselves in them.

    Everybody has close games but the rockets have had tons now. It doesn't speak well towards them.

    You guys are harsh! Rockets held the best offense in the league under 100. The only easy points Dallas ever got this game were off oops which wouldn't have been there if Dwight had played.

    Out of the 13 games, Houston have played 5 close, not every game has been close. When they were relatively healthy they were putting teams away pretty easily.

    The offense looks bad at times, especially when they have no one to throw it inside to but they have played great defense all year long outside of one or two games and have not been healthy all year long.

    I'm sure McHale will get exposed in the playoffs eventually though, but this wasn't a game they were supposed to win without any decent frontcourt players excluding Motiejunas.

    Dallas keeps getting props all year but they do not play defense this year. They are going to get it pretty good against any team that hits the three pretty well, this includes GSW and the Blazers. Rockets went cold because they just missed some open threes, some of them were wide open...

    Their offense played better in the game against us too. We just shut them down hard.

    Dallas is overrated. Fuck it, all the Texas teams this year are not that great, the spurs will likely turn it on but its not like they're playing like world beaters.
