    Reverse jinx. The Rockets will get blown out at home tomorrow night by the Mavs.

    I just wish we had a 3rd PG. Demetrious isn't too bad on defense but his offense isn't really NBA caliber. He's not asked to do much but it puts so much more pressure on other dudes like Gordon to have to score and create.

    I'm already bored watching the same exact team as last year do the same exact things as last year, with a tiny bit of PJ Tucker seasoning. I want to see PAUL PLAY. Morey gives me something new and different every year, I'm SPOILED.

    All I have to look forward to is finding out which obscure shoe PJ Tucker is going to wear.

    Yeah I'm with you. I like DJ as a young prospect, but a guy like Jameer Nelson I'd be totally on board with. That said, the fact that we haven't signed anyone leads me to believe that we have bigger plans. Our guy isn't available yet. (Or maybe we are looking to deal Troy Williams? I still find it suspicious that he has gotten literally zero run...)

    So glad we didn't get that old injury prone melo.

    Paul is so young and healthy.

    Watching Tucker and Luc play this year has been so fun. Tucker and Paul seem like the type to jump your ass if you aren't playing defense. James has appeared 10x more engaged from that end thus far.

    Paul>>>>>>>Melo

    What’s your point?

    everyone here knew that CP3 was injury prone if they paid any attention to his career so far

    Thankfully it'll be harder to jinx this bunch. They're off to a 2-0 start including a win at Golden State. The 2015-16 bunch started off 0-3 and lost each game by 20 points.

    That being said, we're still getting killed by Dallas tomorrow night.


    Rockets PG Chris Paul will sit out Saturday against the Mavs due to his bruised left knee. It's the second straight game Paul will miss.

    Oh really? Everyone been saying Paul is young? And everyone was talking about Melo being injury prone? Are you sure you aren't just making crap up?

    I don't know if you're just being funny. So I err on the side of caution.

    It's early in the season and it's a home game vs the Mavs(who will be on the 2nd night of a B2B, BTW). Why risk it?

    So true. If you love the Houston Rockets, had to imagine how you wouldn't be thrilled and excited right now. I am literally counting the hours to the next game.
