He really should just sit down and rest his wrist, but he takes pride in playing through injuries. This guy actually plays on sprain ankles that many players sit on.

I'm rolling my eyes.

Every player is banged up this time of year.

Crabbe fuckin robbed Harden twice there at the end. Those were some huge steals. If he could keep up that level of defense and jack up some threes our bench would be legit.

He's got great length. To me he's always been a better defender than some think. I know the stats say otherwise but I don't care. He often gets matched up with the other teams best perimeter scorer. There's a reason for that. He can definitely get frustrating with his touch fouls, but tonight you saw why he does it.

I love that harden got the ball stolen, and then his 3 blocked at the end. That was such a "fuck you" way to end the game.

He had a hard time seeing the rim after harkless grabbed him by the beard and skull fucked his eyes out. Im sure he will blame the wrist injury he acquired from stroking his own ego.

Also, he's only ever played for Terry "What-fense?" Stotts. Crabbe has the tools to be an above-average defender, but playing on a suck defensive team, in a suck defensive system, is not a recipe for having positive individual defensive stats.

Yeah, every player has a sprained wrist on their shooting hand, no way that would affect his shot...Harden missed one game (due to suspension for the Lebron Kick) the past 3 years. It's alright to give players a little credit.

Nurkic has been really good for you guys. Like I said before the season, it was good you guys did not get or really chase after Howard. It's crazy Denver had Nurkic and Jokic and I feel like they didn't get much for Nurkic.

Cool posts by you. Seriously. I would do the same if I were in a Houston forum. It amazes me that we have two of our own posters, that talk more shit about our team, than a Rockets fan does. Over, and over, and over................................................

Actually, I've been reading more general insults towards portland. Go figure. Like Houston is some bastion of Class A Infrastructure and Citizenry.

He gets credit when he gives credit for the beard. Brian Wilson had the beard first in this generation of athletes. And he ain't the first at all.

Also, let me clear. I'm not making excuses for the Rockets tonight. Blazers shot lights out, were over 50% from 3 most of the game, and Rockets struggle against teams with good centers (Unless they are the Clippers...lol) so it makes sense that Nurkic would be the difference from now and when we won the previous 2 games. In theory Rockets should struggle with the Thunder but Westbrook doesn't really utilize his bigs the way a pass friendly PG actually does.

LOL. Rocket fans are the true soccer moms.

Again.

So fucking what? EVERYONE is hurt this time of year.

You didn't see our fans on other teams' forums making excuses for Dame earlier this season.

Hahahah what calls did they not get? Refs let Nurk away with an obvious foul but that was only because they called a phantom one a few minutes earlier.

Btw you like how I remember that? You know why? Because that's the only call we got.
