    Brad Miller played decent defense too......

    I really hope we have found a temporary starting lineup.....

    The guys that started the 3rd quarter, should start next game.....

    Lowry
    Kmart
    Shane
    Scola
    Miller

    And dang it...another ankle injury to Chase...that is 5 sprained ankles already this year.

    AB - big one
    Yao - mild
    Cbud - 2 times
    Kmart - very mild
    Miller - Preseason

    I mean...can we get a repreive from ankle injuries...PLEASE????

    Exactly.. I think were "one more Defensive player on the court" away from a good team. It lets Shane shut down his man.. And one offensive beast/Yao away too.. lets Shane shoot wide open shots as the 4th-5th option.

    Call me crazy, but I'm gonna say Brad = Miller.

    It wasn't pretty, but a win is a win.

    I don't expect many easy wins for this team for quite a while. It's going to be a dogfight most nights.

    I rather it be ankle injuries than other nasty injuries...

    let's blame Keith Jones and the training staff for all the ankle injuries, would be about on par for the GARM

    glad to finally beat the Pacers, i think they had a 2 or 3 game winning streak on us.

    Kevin Martin held us in this game like last game. He is closing games just fine. The two man game needs to be a staple in the offense between Martin, Lowry, and Miller in some form or another every game.

    4 blocks by Battier! He was tough on D tonight and he has the black eye to prove it.

    The pick n roll with Miller where he gets wide open 3s really killed the Pacers. We should keep doing that to teams...they're not going to guard Miller.

    I'm Happy it was the Pacers that didn't make the necessary substitutions and not the Rockets. Adelman did a good job with his subs this game (it was probably a bit easier since the players he loves were actually having solid games: Lowry, Batt, Miller)

    When Rick Pulled Scola out of the game when Posey was busting his ass was key. He brought him right back in when Posey got subbed out. Pulled Scola immediately when Posey was subbed back in down the stretch.

    First time this season I felt Rick actually adjusted to the game.

    Rick must have watched Posey doing that to us and thought, hey, I can do that with Miller on Hibbert....

    Maybe the shoes have something to do with the ankle injuries.

    Idk what else in can be.

    wtf?? i missed 2 rockets games so far ( minny, and pacers), and they won both of them...maybe i should miss the next 76 games on purpose and the rockets could go 76-6?

    Anyway, i almost had a heart attack when i checked the boxscore..B.miller with 23 pts, 3/3 3pts? wow...that's impressive...

    This game was no different than the rest of the games we lost, except we did the little things and the Pacers couldn't take advantage of our mistakes.

    Good win, wish the other 6 games we lost had a little luck going our way.....
