    Its amazing what an actual offense can look like. Last few seasons looked like the Franchise era of Rudy T ball, 90% Iso or Post up with zero movement. Disgusting BS.

    Admittedly I hated the Pringles signing, I thought he was trash. He still may be, honestly. But right now, this team is flowing like my girl on the 3rd day of her cycle. The offense is so amazing to see and this team is fun. Can we keep this up in the playoffs? Probably, or Probably not...only time will tell.

    Until then, I will continue to eat this crow.

    It's still the same offense like last year. The difference is we have shooters that can hit open 3s now.

    You're kidding right? There is a ton of ball movement and off the ball movement in this offense. Watch

    Disagree.

    How do explain the explosion of production from the bench? There is no drop off when Harden sits, they actually Push the lead now.

    There is noticeable movement in the offense.. I mean EVERYBODY IS OPEN!

    Even if you don't see it. There are plenty of interviews out there where James, Pat, Ariza, etc talk about how excited they were to play in MDA's offense( preseason) and now how happy they are playing in MDA offense. They certainly ain't saying damn this Mchale offense is really flowing with D'antoni now lol

    Stay the course, Rocket River, he said Franchise era of Rudy T ball. Francis did pound that rock a lot. Though I still loved watching those games.

    YaosDirtyStache... poor timing... it was Rudy T day tonight at the Yota.

    Like I said, it's the same spread pick n roll offense ran through harden.

    Except now you got guys like Anderson and Gordon that can hit open shots.

    There's a few off ball screens to Gordon and dekker, that's about it.

    Take away Gordon, Anderson, & Dekker and you'll instantly get back last year's offense. Ever since Adelman the Rockets have stressed motion even under McHale.

    I assume you mean the pregame interview. I'm assuming you're too young to remember the glory days and you only remember Rudy, the coach of Steve Francis and Mobley. D'Antoni had a play called the "Houston Fist Up" named after what Rudy did. So yes, there are similarities. He didn't say it was the same. He was looking for a comparison for tonight's Rudy night. You took it way too far and put words into the reporter's mouth. So again, poor timing. Rudy is the leader of our two championships and he's kind of royalty around here. Rocket River had every right to act like that. You were being... well... you know

    Oh I remember the great Rudy T offense days, its why I wrote "Franchise Era" type of Rudy Ball. I know what it was like before that, I am no Rockets noob. Ive bled Ketchup and Mustard since I was shat out the womb.
