Well, at least we didn't roll over. It would have been very easy to throw in the towel.
Thibs has got to come up with a better defensive strategy than the one he had tonight. Seriously, 58 3's given up to the Rockets. That is 18 more attempts than their average. That along with our turnovers absolutely doomed us. It didn't matter how many layups and easy put backs we got with the 3-point and turnover differential.

Playing then on a back to back probably hurt.
But ya we made 5 more shots and out rebounded them by like 20. But 39 pt difference in 3pt makes
Rockets are a one trick pony but my god they do that one trick well.
Turnovers killed us. Rubio had one of his worst games of the season, just out of sorts most of the game. And then the most glaring problem going forward: Rush has become worthless as tits on a bull. I think Thibs should go for broke and start someone else...Be-A-Pizza? Dunn? Tyus Stones maybe? We can't guard anybody anyway.
