Okay...

Time to get this freight train back on track...

[BigOrange1 6611]

yeah it's time to play well for the first time in like a month.

[Sleepygrad 1041]

ariza nice

 

[TexArcher 39068]

Ariza hits two 3s then draws a foul on KAT.  Hell of a start.

[BigOrange1 6611]

that's #2 on KAT.

[BigOrange1 6611]

ariza is on fire!

[Sleepygrad 1041]

damn harden, come on now

[BigOrange1 6611]

ugh, that's the shot paul has to make.  

[Rockethorn1978 6205]

Harden needs to drive and kick or get contact and live at the free throw line instead of jacking up step back threes.

[ChickenSandwich 9958]

Are we playing prison rules?

[BigOrange1 6611]

so many missed shots at the rim this series.

[TexArcher 39068]

JFC, Harden.  Come on.

[Rockethorn1978 6205]

Harden is pressing it way to hard. This is why he melts down because he tries to make something happen instead of setting others up. 

[ChickenSandwich 9958]

D’Antoni needs to be able to break his minutes rotation and bench harden for a second to regroup. Being stubborn.

Hero ball at its worst.

[Sleepygrad 1041]

don't know if the hero ball aspect is out of control, he's had some good open looks at the rim and just missed...you gotta keep feeding him I think

[TexArcher 39068]

Another foul on a big.  Keep pounding it inside.

[Sleepygrad 1041]

fuck yeah gordon!

 

 

[UDontKnow 10571]

Getting tired of getting burned by Derrick Rose. Tighten up the man defense.

[Rockethorn1978 6205]

Just need better ball movement and not shoot a three after one pass. Those early ariza threes were great because it was in the rhythm of the offense. Other than that everything looked pressed. Defense actually was good we only gave up 21 and normally that would be a 10 point lead for this offense.

[TonyTexas 10762]

Twolves doing a good job defending the drive and dish to the corners. Plus our shooting has been bad.

[BigOrange1 6611]

shit, that doesn't look good.

[BigOrange1 6611]

the missed 3's are now officially annoying. 

[BigOrange1 6611]

how dare capela foul butler's arm with his face.

[TexArcher 39068]

I have an idea.  Since we're 4 of 15 on threes and they have 3 fouls on their bigs already, maybe we could go inside some.

[TexArcher 39068]

Like that.  Do more of that.

[Sleepygrad 1041]

thank god we have an alternative to the ESPN telecast

[UDontKnow 10571]

Rockets no longer doubling KAT. Let's see how long they can get away with it. It's better than giving the T-Wolves open looks at 3s.

[BigOrange1 6611]

good to see tucker back in.

[Sleepygrad 1041]

fuck yes

[BigOrange1 6611]

there you go james.

[TexArcher 39068]

There you go, James.  Heat this thing up.

[hookem48 4844]

about fucking time 

[BigOrange1 6611]

fuck yes

[BigOrange1 6611]

finally some 3's are falling.

[BigOrange1 6611]

oh what the fuck ever.

[Artificial Iverson 107]

wiggins, just like his dad, isn't a good outside shooter but a natural driver and midrange dude. 

[hookem48 4844]

nice defense dipshits

[Rockethorn1978 6205]

Fuck Derrick rose. I hope he thinks he can take a game over and shoots them

out of the game.

[UDontKnow 10571]

Rockets making D. Rose look like he found the fountain of youth.

[Sleepygrad 1041]

is that 3 on James?

[hookem48 4844]

Harden you fucking idiot

[Rockethorn1978 6205]

It’s amazing how that is called in Minnesota and wouldn’t be called in Houston. 

[hookem48 4844]

Rose is about due to break a leg or something

[Rockethorn1978 6205]

1 point lead on the road. Just win it’s the playoffs and head home and win the series.

They are also defending the Capella lob well

[BigOrange1 6611]

paul with the nice bounce.

[TexArcher 39068]

Nice start!  Harden with a layup, CP3 with a 3, and Harden draws 3 free throws.  Love it.

[BigOrange1 6611]

very nice defense to start the 3rd.

[TexArcher 39068]

Nice d, PJ!

Stretch this lead out.
