Pels put up a hell of a fight with no Davis. Moore and Jrue went the hell off.

People skeptical of the Paul / Harden duo have no reason to be anymore. Undefeated this season together. Always a HOF pg on the floor. Love the make up of this team.

What a win for the greatest team in nba history. Barely beat the awful pelicans team that played 8 guys, on the second night of a back to back.


Was a cool harden travel on that three too

No I wouldn't. The Rockets are playing great but they aren't invincible. I don't expect the Rockets to blow them out. I'll say Rockets win by 8.
I know my team.

We played 8 guys you dumb frick and without our best player. Rockets should’ve won this by 20. All I hear from Rockets fans is how terrible the pelicans are

Frick Houston. Have fun making the playoffs and getting beat in the first round.




Pels make 18 three pointers (most in franchise history) while shooting 54% from 3, and STILL LOSE.

I did not expect the Pelicans to shoot like that. But the Rockets for some reason play close games against the Pelicans. They kind of mirror them until the end for some reason.

I thought it would be close throughout and the Rockets would finish at the end. That's usually how the games go with the Pelicans.

Uh yeah. The Rox are really good. They're 21-4. Cousins blew it late and James Harden got away with a shuffle step 3. It is what it is.

I’m just honored that the Pels played the greatest game of all time and finished within single digits of CC

Its not like your points were on driving. You guys literally sat back lazily and jacked up 3s and made over 50%, you made the most 3 pointers in your franchise's history.


If you put Anthony Davis on the floor, the Rockets would just adjust their matchups. You noticed Ryan Anderson didn't play much tonight?


The Pelicans could have not played any better offensively and thats a fact.

Stop the pick and roll (Cousins d) AND Rondo takes care of the ball you win that game.

Everything aside, the Pels 3-pt show kept this game close.

You guys were on a back-to-back, and there's not reason it shouldn't have been at the least a solid Rockets win.

Pels need another Big and another reliable shooter. Then they’ll have the ability to make West contenders think twice

No one says they're terrible, but there's obviously plenty of reasons the game was close.

You say "Rockets should have blown them out by 20", SURE maybe so, BUT THEY DIDN'T.
