Is Lebron trying to toss this game. The last two possessions were disgusting.

That's game. The defensive lapses in combination of poor shooting is a real problem...

I think we got this. For all the crap Rondo gets, he definitely played a big role in this game.

I think he thought that the clock was running out. He didn't realize that the rockets had control of the ball.

For all the hate Rondo gets, he did a helluva job on defense tonight. He is far from the problem.

Game ball goes to Kieff today. Without that hot start I think we lose the game.

Great team win. IMO LeBron is still the best player in the game.

I’m worried the rockets will eventually decide to bench Westbrook. The entire defensive approach is based on disrespecting Westbrook’s shot and taking advantage of his bad passing out of the drive.

This is the offense I want to see. We should put up 120 a night. This is about the best you can get out of Rondo. When he gambles on def and wins it feels great. When he gambles and looses he looks like a bum. But he kills spacing on offense. I'm glad Keef showed up. We need that 3rd guy.

On defense no. He's helpful. But he kills us on offense. The lack of spacing will hurt LBJ and AD

Rondo's best game since the Christmas game against the Warriors.
They made 22 3's on 42% shooting and we still managed to win.

If he plays like he did today then you got to play him. The problem comes when he isn't playing good and Vogel's unwillingness to bench him.

Danny Green 3-5 from 3 tonight. Hopefully he's finally coming around.
