Linking the gameflow for tonight.

It's rare to see a momentum stopper like Harden tonight. It's almost like he was playing for the other team.

Multiple runs by Rockets as soon as Harden gets benched. Can't count that as a fluke.

DMo unit was actually positive overall. That was surprising...

Tjones isn't TJones without Parsons.
Hell the Rockets without Parsons is like...

The Heat without LeBron.




Chandler Parsons is the White LBJ.

Wait a sec. Dwight and harden are the team's max players right? The 'kobe-shaq' of this team? And thr opponent was freaking tanking Suns?

Injuries regardless but Phil Jackson gonna massacre this years' Suns with 1 all star and 4 cameos

Coach failure.

tough loss? they didn't even try to win this one


Yeah, a tough loss is losing at the buzzer or a close game. This loss is an embarrassment and a disgrace. You would think losing to the Jazz would light a fire under the asses of our stars.. but nope, not with Harden or Howard.



Welcome to the NBA. This is how it goes.. especially for a new team with high expectations.

Granted it was a tough loss to swallow, but moving on and getting focused on Golden State.

Suns fan here, but I am also a fan of Harden since his ASU days. I do not remember him being such a bad defender. Was this game an anomaly or is this typical of the effort he puts out on D?

I can understand him having a difficult night on offense. PJ is a very good defender and can really annoy. But there is no excuse for that lack of effort on defense.

So Rockets beat the good teams on the road out west in Portland and San Antonio and then lose to crappy teams at home like Phoenix and Lakers (no Kobe). I sure hope this doesn't continue to happen like this.

every single game, he's one of the main reasons why the rockets perimeter defense is so weak.
