Lmao. On their first possession, Austin Rivers held the ball without dribbling for a good 15 seconds.
Rockets have 9 turnovers in the first quarter with many of them being unforced. They are still up by 6. I expect the Rockets to win this by 20+ points.
Clippers are very dependent on CP3 to run their offense, without him they will lose. I'm actually surprised it's a close game, can chalk it up to rest/rust, Rockets are going to blow the game open soon.
Houston should be winning this by 15. Bad, sloppy game. The Clips will look much better with CP3. And if they somehow manage to stay close and even win this without Paul, that will be a huge blow to the Rockets. But I don't think that will happen.
Wow. I look stupid. I can't believe the Clippers are actually up by double digits without CP3. They must be so happy right now to face a team that's 10x worse than the Spurs.
The Rockets played such a sloppy game. They are getting pounded by the Clips, who had an awful first half. And all that without their floor general, CP3. The Rockets have to be extremely strong mentally if they want to come back from this.
Rockets hack Jordan. Jordan sinks both free throws and returns the favor by hacking Dwight, who ends up missing both free throws.
Hack a ___________. We'll see a lot of this in this series. You can hack two guys on the Rockets team. The last two minutes in any close game between these two teams might take 10 minutes or more.
Wow. Rockets are just so mentally weak. They just gave up toward the end, not even running back on defense.
