Harden blows a layup, Parsons blows an open 3, and a Denver fastbreak to end the game.
Parsons and Mchale need to get their **** together. I really think Mchale is one of the worst coaches. He never seems to know what to do. He's like one of my high school coaches, Danny boy.
No that was purely poor execution. Missed shots, turnovers, and yes some bad coaching.Quote:

I dot solely mean the end of the game. He uses stupid lineups at the worst times. He doesnt play the 8 best players on our team, he has a knack for falling in love with ****** players, I've never seen him draw up a play coming out of a timeout that worked. He doesnt seem to try to put players in situations they can thrive
Awful game, I have no idea what McHale has in mind with this rotation without Motiejunas and Jones, and Morris and Douglas playing 35 minutes combined.
Anyway, I'm happy to see that the team could stay in the game despite Lin and Harden combining for just 21/8 shooting less than 30% from the field and 0-9 from the 3pt line. Patterson looked pretty good and so was Delfino. Harden and Lin will probably bounce back from this, but it's good to see we have other weapons.
IMO, refs called a horrible game. Somewhere while watching film on James harden, refs decided that they were not going to give him the calls that he's been getting these last 3 seasons. Every time he drove to the basket Denver was swiping at his arms, taking shots at the ball, and no call. But they have the nerve to say he was turnover prone this game! NO! He wasn't getting the calls he's always gotten and that's why we lost the game. Rockets played a tough match and lost because they were playing 5 on 8 for 42 minutes and were forced to take bad contested shots because the refs let Denver maul them in the paint. And what's crawfords vendetta against Morris? That was total BS. He basically threatened to throw him out in the first 10 minutes of the game. What's up with that? Refs had it in for H Town tonight
I would rather see t. Jones before dmo. I haven't really seen dmo play much defense. But who knows. Some reason mchale like Morris know. I like his attitude also, but he's making a lot of simple mistakes on defensive rotations and securing the ball. He looks sloppy. But he's got that bulldog attitude that mchale has seem to like all of a sudden. Maybe we'll see some shakeups during this next back to backQuote:

That was painful to watch.
Harden was a bit stale tonight, McGee, Iggy and Gallo were on point.
It's 11pm, I have severe heartburn, the 30 mile trip home was hard after quite the tab in the Silestone club, I've got a "Loaded Breakfast Sammich" in front of me, and a Rockets loss behind me. I hope we learned from this experience... that was a REALLY bitter pill to swallow. :(
I love the Rockets and pull for them to win every game, but blaming the loss on the refs is a losers mentality. Fans of losing teams always blame the refs because of frustration over turnovers. The refs did not lose the game tonight, the Rockets did. It is that simple, but they will bounce back.Quote:

You can't win shooting that many low-quality shots and turning the ball almost 20 times a game. That's just ridiculous.
