You guys are so defensive.

And still less than Durant last year... Not to mention that the usual people around him have all missed tons of games this year. Durant, Westbrook, and LeBron.

DeAndre Jordan throws a tantrum on every call like a little kid.

I knew the Clippers are known for whining, but that's embarrassing.

It really isn't worth it. These people all have their minds made up. It would be one thing if Harden was actually averaging an unusual number of free throws, but he's not. The guy handles the ball every possession and goes to the line once per quarter. But you would think he was there 4 times per quarter.

I just think it's people who don't really watch. I love watching the dude cross guys over, hit them with step backs, go hard to the basket ect. I think he and Steph are the best two at scoring off the dribble. It's fun to watch.

Yup. Rockets look good. I can only watch for 30 more minutes, so hopefully they can keep playing well.

Big Baby just had the most ridiculous tip-in. And the face he made after was even better. Ball went like 6 feet above the rim.

Find me another player who has shot more free throws then actual field goals besides James harden?

James harden has done it the last 3 years. I only looked at a few players but I can't find anyone else.

This is a serious question though. I'm wondering if he is the only player. I haven't looked but as I type this im thinking maybe deandre Jordan?

It was a charge and Griffin fouled him to get the steal anyway.

Its seems weird, but i think that team has lost something...Idk what it is...they still arent that team everyone claimed them to be, and like they talked about during the game, this core group still has never been to a Conf. finals. I think thats rather odd considering how long they've had these guys together. Hasn't it been 3 years of Blake Griffin, Chris Paul, DeAndre Jordan, and Barnes? Their biggest issue going forward will be Chris Paul. Even though Griffin and DeAndre Jordan have youth, this team is shite without Chris Paul.

Well, they didn't have Jamal Crawford today, who is usually one of their best scoring options. He's very important to the team.

But other than that, their bench isn't very good. That's why they have trouble.

But as a Rockets fan, I have a distorted view of the Clippers because they are always kicking the Rockets' arse. I feel like they're a really good team. Probably more than other people.
