And here I was thinking with a new coach we wouldn't run the ol' iso the clock out and pray for Harden to pull a rabbit out of his hat play late in the game.

Pretty sloppy second half. The D may be worse than I expected.

Love that if we can't hit 3s we don't have any D to fall back on.

This game is on coach Pringles. Way too much Ennis, Nene, and Brewer. Ridiculous.

To be fair, that's Golden State's MO as well.

Feel like Anderson should not be taking fall away 3s or long 2s.

True, but they have have a collection of great shooters that is very difficult for teams to replicate.

38, 33, 25, 18. Offense went toes up in the 3rd and 4th...

Always a good idea to completely abandon what works.

Enjoy your inevitable ban. You stayed up well beyond what normal, working individuals would to watch a team you don't root for lose their first game in a 7 month season.

Nene was in for 22 minutes and only grabbed three boards.

Need Bev back healthy so you don't have to worry about giving Ennis any minutes. Need to slowly phase out Brewers playing time as well.

So we hired a coach with a historically bad defensive team and added guys who don't play defense and expect to win? F u Morrey and les. This team willl back door into the playofffs again And geat smoked

Why was a timeout called when it looked like there was a fast break situation ?

Grow-up...never understood the allure to announcing to a bunch of grown people that your life is that sad that you show-up into the thread of a team that's not yours just to try to piss people off.

I know. Crazy idea, right?

Houston Defense = bedsheet in front of a train.

Completely expected when we learned dantoni would be hired. Still incredibly frustrating when setting defense aside shows to be an unwise decision season after season.

Long season ahead. Hate to start this way but it's one game. Also, screw the person who put us on the road for the first 14/20 games
Beat40
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Agreed, only one game. Yeah, that 14/20 is brutal.

At least the three point shooting won't get any worse, right? If we shoot league average, we win going away.

Didn't we hear the same thing last year about the 3pt percentage?

Yeah I get it. Just playing Devil's Advocate. Anderson should (SHOULD) shoot much better throughout the year and it looks like he's going to be the difference in close wins/losses. Its hard to **** on Morey when the trend for contenders is to stack allstars, and they're not buying what we're selling. This team was built around the philosophy of "well, if James doesn't want to play defense, we'll try to stack offense as much as possible for as reasonable a cost as possible". It is what it is. I hated the D'Antonio hire initially, but after some thought, I get it. This team is going to win and lose a ton of games like this one, and we fans are just going to have to adjust to the swings. I do think James will clean up his turnovers a bit after having to handle the ball more regularly throughout the season and I do think Anderson will hit the 3 at a better clip. Despite this **** loss, I think the Rockets are a 45(ish) win team and will make the playoffs. Whether or not they make a run will solely rely on how hot they are from deep and Harden's matchup/mindset.

And Arizona continues to suck at 3's.... stop shooting them and d up my dude

Anderson is what he is. He is going to suck one night and fill it up the next night. Generally a weak rebounder and poor defender. But when he gets hot, he is scorching hot and he has to be accounted for on the floor at all times by the D. Definitely the kind of guy you want as a stretch 4 next to Capela clogging the paint.
