Harden's shot selection has been poor at the end of this quarter. It's letting the Warriors back in.

Indeed, though to be fair he should have been given 6 foul shots.

[Gourmand 7774]

holy fuck I love you Gordon

[Jimbaround 975]

That was impressive.

[GHOSTUSER 361]

Huge we didn’t let them get the lead down to like a 2 possession game before the end of the half.

[TonyTexas 10527]

This lead feels different than Saturday’s. Home crowd is going to help keep their energy up.

[Mack Tripper 696]

This. And then they hit threes on the other end.

[Orca of Peace 109]

refs are not going t give anything to Houston

Agreed. But he's forcing the refs to make a decision (which isn't going in the Rockets favor) and then GS is off to the races on the other end.

This is a good lead at halftime. One that should scare the Rockets because GSW has routinely gone on 11-0 runs on them in the 3rd quarter. Keep your head down and keep grindin'.

Thompson not even having to play defense  for damn near a whole quarter with 3 fouls is fucking ridiculous.

[Dog Zazz 23]

Hardens threes, a couple of Capela and ones, and a goaltend. All to atone for Golden States first quarter fouls. 

[CurlyDumps 4484]

Let’s be the aggressor in the 3rd qtr.  extend the lead.  Dantoni rolling the dice with Ryno and JJ playing spot minutes so the main guys don’t run out of gas.  Let’s see it pay off.

Well if you look at it, the Rockets lead went from 5 to 11 after the 2nd quarter. Klay's foul trouble is working out in the Rockets' favor.

[hookem48 4703]

so this is where the Warriors clamp down errrrrrrr 5 guys grab and hold on defense with no calls?

[TexArcher 38065]

We're leading turnovers 10-6 and offensive rebounds 11-5.

Golden State got whistled for TWO fouls the entire second quarter and we still won it by 6.

We're just outworking them.

Please keep it going for 24 more minutes.  Y'all got this.

[Gourmand 7774]

I really want to like Steve Kerr but he just insists upon being an arrogant ass about the most unliked team in the NBA

sorry, you have a double digit lead and you don't go at that guy even once is fucking stupid.

Well towards the end of the quarter, the Rockets stopped driving which they shouldn't have done.

Olay was standing in the corner guarding Tucker.  You want PJ to run point?

[The Tower 369]

So fucking nervous for the next two quarters.

Well Mario Elie is in the building so we've got that going for us.

[UDontKnow 10448]

Is Weezy F Baby rootin' for the Rockets?

[TexArcher 38065]

Come on, guys.  Keep the intensity up.  Just give us a tied third quarter.

I said the exact same thing to my buddy. Let’s keep this going, fellas. 

[GHOSTUSER 361]

It’d be nice if Ariza made a 3 once in a while

HOW IN THE FUCK IS HE WAVING THAT OFF????

[TexArcher 38065]

How does that not count?!?!?!?!?!?

[Telegraph_it 3359]

Wow. That’s unreal.

[elfenix 34332]

refs thoroughly fucking the rockets

[Gourmand 7774]

Scott Foster!

[perfectchaos007 6677]

REF YOU SUCK

[hookem48 4703]

Harden you lazy fuck

[UDontKnow 10448]

Why are they forcing 3 point shots?

[BigOrange1 6471]

missing too many shots...

[Gourmand 7774]

drive the lane guys

[GHOSTUSER 361]

We need the crowd to get amped here. Don’t like how we are settling for 3s

[Orca of Peace 109]

can't shoot, losing their confidence and getting tired.  Lead was 15, now 5

[Rockethorn1978 6102]

3rd qtr shitfest continues.

[UDontKnow 10448]

Thank God for the time out. It's like the team doesn't understand that their missed 3s are leading to transition buckets on the other end for the Warriors. 

[maninblack 7974]

Foster is so clearly in the bag. This is so fucked

[TexArcher 38065]

6-30 on threes.  Christ.

And points in the paint is 34-18.  Please, for the love of god, get into the lane again.

Fuck off

[Mack Tripper 696]

He’s not even trying to hide it at this point.

[CurlyDumps 4484]

Somebody needs to step up and nail a fucking three.

[Orca of Peace 109]

he was murdered, no foul

[UDontKnow 10448]

Rockets are gonna have to win in spite of the refs. So don't settle on offense and still play tight defense.

[GHOSTUSER 361]

Ridiculous the lack of calls

[Stringer 1439]

Need to get some 3's to drop.

[BigOrange1 6471]

why drive when they're allowed to get away with shit like that?
