Really need Hayward to impose himself and look for his shot.

13 of 20 Rockets shots were 3s, all the other ones were layups.
It feels like they are getting what they want.

Harden plays an annoying style of basketball.

There's a reason the Rockets haven't made the Finals in the last 5-6 years despite having Harden

This 'gimmick' may work in the regular season where teams don't play the same opponent every night - especially against the Eastern Conference. But in the postseason, teams will be better able to game plan and not get so thrown off track. The Cs are doing everything wrong so far. Good thing Jaylen is at least somewhat on and there are 3 more quarters to figure it out.

Yeah the faster the C's get these Houston games over with the better.

I'm genuinely shocked that despite all that, we're only down 5.

4! Don't shortchange us!  ;D
There are no 5s in this game  ;)

Terrible
Once you are labeled 'the best' you want to stay up there, and you can't do it by loafing around.

I think the term "klank" is called for here.

Wow, I can't believe the Cs were down only 4 at the end of the first.

They really flubbed that quarter. Great first 3 minutes, then they commenced with all kinds of turnovers, missed layups, and generally sloppy play. Hopefully they right the ship.
