KAT playing so great.  So aggressive.  He's back.

2-6 from the floor for 6 points.

That GM poll two years back of the player that they'd pick first to build a franchise around that he won sure seems like a lifetime ago.

Should not keep Gerald Green and Ryan Anderson on the floor at the same time. That's two huge defensive liabilities.
I'm not convinced Anderson should play at all

He's kind of lost on the court. He needs to stick to spot up shooting. When he drives it's a bad shot or a turnover. I'm not gonna even talk about him on defense.

It feels like D'Antoni doesn't care about this game.

Seems like D'Antoni wants to hoard his timeouts for some reason. No defensive adjustments made this quarter.
I wouldn't burn a timeout, either. is defense the reason?

I just saw on the TV that at one point in the 3rd quarter, the Rockets had 6 TOs left. I guess defense would be part of the reason as well as yelling at the team to get its collective head out of its ass.

how in the hell was there no foul?

He just lost the ball. It happens. But I wish Harden would spend less time complaining about the call out of bounds when play is heading 100 mph in the other direction.

Wolves have committed about 45 fouls and been called for 11 of them.

Not that it matters when we're bricking free throws.

We're playing like shit and Minny's playing out of their minds.  10 of 20 from behind the arc.  Meh.  It's the playoffs.  We'll fuck them up Monday night.

youre getting destroyed  in the paint.

Yup. Just a shitty team effort. They need to win the next one though. If they don't win Game 4, then it's guaranteed to be a 7 game series. I predicted 4-1, but man I wanted the sweep.

Eh, it’s one of those playoff games when an opponent is down 0-2 and hits everything they throw up. It happens. What’s annoying is that KAT is over the back on every missed shot and has been called for it once.

    This game is something that deviates from what is standard, normal, or expected of the Rockets. But don't worry, CP3 & The Beard will get their act together and win the next (2) contest...

That's kind of a rude & un-sportsman-like push from Butler... (Just more fuel to the fire for Harden in the next game)

The Rockets need to make it a point of emphasis to focus on 3 point defense next game. 

Agreed.  But, if they want to continue to turn games into 3-point shooting contests, let them.  This is one of the worst 3-point teams in the league hitting 15-25.  Anomaly indeed.

I really hope that this game will just be a blip in the radar. Because Minnesota is determined to give the Rockets the bidness from beyond the arc this game. It would not surprise me if that's their intent for Game 4.

This is why I didn't like all the days off between games. Rockets haven't been in a good offensive rhythm for the past 2.5 weeks. It's ridiculous that a few series have already played 4 games in the same time the Rockets have played 3.
