    Hartenstink is not good enough, bring in Caboclo.

    Capela is so key to the whole plan... how he sets picks, how he rolls, his ability to catch lobs (just having the lob threat, period), his defense, his rebounding... man, can't stress that enough -- Rebounding is going to be a big problem.

    Rockets are not in a good position here. I don't have faith in Hartenstein nor Chriss, but I would think we will see more Hartenstein.

    It's crazy to be this unlucky in one season.

    So will the Rockets blast off now now that Capela is out of the picture?

    If you know who/what I'm talkin' about. ;)

    YOU CANNOT WIN A CHAMPIONSHIP WITH CLINT CAPELA AS YOUR STARTING CENTER!

    Capela is extremely important for Rockets, but it's not because he is so great, it's because he is perfect fit for Rockets and he is the only player of this type in the team. Rockets need to sign another center with athleticism and energy. It's obvious now. Nene is too old and slow. He can't play more than 20 min. Moreover, he can't play vs. GSW at all. Hartenstein is just a trash. I vote for Willie Reed.

    Hate to be that guy, but we're f***ed. At least the last month of Harden was entertaining. Now everyone can just quadruple him and dare Nene to beat them inside (except on back-to-backs). Yikes.

    I like Zubac

    Rockets get Zubac/Beasley
    Wizards get Chriss/Melo and Rockets First
    Lakers get Wizards Morris/Wizards 2nd

    werd... This game was definitely money in the pocket... we were beating them throughout.. Wish Harden didnt want to shoot himself out the slump & drove more instead... Everytime we had a decent league Harden decides to shoot us back down..
    This was a easy must win & he threw it away.
    I guess after being great for so damn long he's meant to have one shitty game...
