We all knew D'Antoni's teams are gonna fail against the top teams in the league like his teams have always done. Feels like this is a preview of the playoffs.

I hope Morey realizes this soon enough and finds someone else to coach instead of wasting Harden's prime.

Beverley is so freaking underappreciated!

Idk. I think Bev is getting more appreciation now than ever. Especially by the media.

Dear God, this feels so much like a troll post I'm wondering if I'm crossing a bridge.

It has to be a troll post. Statements like that need to be in the General board.

Watching Harden grimace like that makes me cringe.
D'Antoni may have to save him from himself and sit him for a game or two.

Solid win by the Warriors.

Kind of worried about Harden right now. I'm not trying to make that an excuse for the loss - the Dubs beat the Rockets asses up and down the court all night tonight. I just don't want to see Houston overplay Harden if he might be hurt.

Good win by the Warriors. The Rockets have A LOT to figure out.

The good news is we have another one of these exhibition games before we head to the playoffs.

I don't think there's necessarily a "lot" they need to figure out. I think they played a decent game all things considered.
The things that should be on the Rockets agenda are:
1) Health - namely Harden and Anderson. Of all the top teams the Rockets are the one that most needs to be clicking on all cylinders.

2) Turnovers - I've said before that live ball turnovers are killers for the way the Rockets play. It was on full display tonight throughout the 1st quarter as the Rockets repeatedly gave the Warriors help they don't need by turning the ball over.
Once they corrected that in the 2nd quarter that 22 point deficit disappeared in no time.

3) Focus - When the Rockets are locked in they can beat any team in the league. The challenge is maintaining that focus for 48 minutes.

A loss is a loss, but I don't see any reason to panic.

Please sign Scola. Or start Harrel while Anderson is out. I hate this three guard lineup. Ariza ain't no Shawn Marion.
