    R.Adelman: Not knowing when to play or rest Yao.

    D.Morey: Not getting a backup C. If LT's aren't calculated till later in the season then lets sign Deke and get rid of someone for the TE later. I understand not wanting to past up the LT and spend twice the amount but you have time on that issue.

    Fans: Complaining about not gonna be able to win a ring with out passing the LT. You are f'ing stupid, STFU and kthxsbye.

    Fans: Expecting everyone to mesh immediately, thinking the players should know and jump start their roles on day one or even month one and due it efficiently, please just go away, come back after All Star Break and you will be happier with what you see. I will be happier not having to read redundant threads on how you feel the Rockets suck.

    R.Alston: You are a fifth option in scoring with the starting line up. Please pass. You have no excuse to double your APG this year.

    1. Losing
    2. Losing
    3. Not getting out of the 1st Round
    4. Losing
    5. Losing

    I am a Rockets fan 1st, player fan 2nd. I could care less if our team shot 15-85 as long as we win the game. I could care less if T-Mac plays 40 minutes and scores 5, as long as we win. I could care less if Yao gets 4 touches, as long as we win.

    I just want to see this team winning.

    1) Lack of health, team loking like it aged 5 years over one summer.
    2) Lack of identity on offense - whether its the "motion offense" not playing to the players' actual strengths, or the players themselves not wanting to grasp it
    3) No backup center, not limiting Yao's minutes
    4) Bad offensive efficiency, MISSED SHOTS. 40(%) is the new 50 for these Rockets

    5) FANS who want to get rid of or fire someone acting like the person ruined their week, then continually getting the person's name all wrong

    "TRADE Alsten"
    "FIRE ALDERMAN !!11!1!! :mad: "

    1. Yao getting blocked (on jumpshots/layups) or having the ball stolen before making his move.
    2. Artest going for yet another finish below the rim and getting blocked. (He should learn some tricks from Hayes or Brooks.)
    3. Trying to force-feed the ball to Yao when he's double teamed.
    4. Tmac hobbling on the court.
    5. Adelman not reacting when the momentum starts to shift.

    softy when the game is at line
    set for jump shot instead of attacking
    lose to crapy teams
    can't make wide open shots
    not much enjoyable so far since we are always behind even in 4th Q

    1.Yao being so soft around the rim, but we have to live with that. :mad:
    2.The whole team’s shooting % :mad:
    3.Rafer’s floater :mad:
    4.T-Mac still being hurt. :mad:
    5.The fact if we didn’t blow 2 games (SA & Ind.) and a lucky shot by Portland we would be 13–3 not 10-6. :mad:

    1) No more Steve Novak
    2) seeing rafer dribble around the perimeter and then jack up a shot with a few seconds left in the clock---not a single pass was made. Happens like 1-2 times per game
    3)barry missing all his threes all of a sudden
    4)being outrebounded by the other team on the glass
    5)seeing dorsey on the bench....get the guy a few minutes to get better or send him down to the D league to work on his game. I know he is kept on the team so Yao has another big body to go against in practice but would like to see him get some run, he is a shot blocker on a team that has none outside of yao. but he should see some time out there a few minutes like 5-10 per game to prove himself.

    Inconsistency. Either be a bad team every night or a good team every night. Halfway in between upsets me. Just be consistent so I can know what to expect.

    I like RA but with JVG there weren't as many swings in consistency. RA will probably turn out to be the better for the Rockets longterm though.

    Please just enjoy watching games and be positive! Give Rockets our support, they are fighting for us!!!!!

    1. Rafer missing wide open 3 then keep on missing them
    2. Rafer's ugly tear drop barely hit the rim.
    3. Yao missing open layups instead of slam it home.
    4. Missing defensive assignment resulting in easy shot
    5. Blowing double digit lead.[/QUOTE]

    1. Injuries
    2.Yao playing like he's 6 foot 7, missing dunks , letting guards layup
    3. Mcgrady on and off intensity.
    4. Rocket's offensive dry spells
    5. Rockets cant seem to give yao ball when he is fronted. the guy is 7'6??


    So far disappointed with this team, but it is still early.

    1. Injuries and more injuries: Need I say more? The last few years can be summed up by a giant "what could have been"!
    2. Losing to the Utah Jazz in the playoffs: I hate the Jazz and I can't stand my team losing to them in the playoffs and it has happened twice in a row.
    3. 4th quarter collapse: those losses kill me...seriously a part of me dies every time the Rockets blow a lead in the 4th quarter.
    4. Missing wide open threes: I watch a lot of NBA games and I really believe that the Rockets miss more wide-open threes than any other team in the league. Every time Rafer bricks one I cringe...this can no be good for my health.
    5. Empty seats in the TC: This has really got on my nerves lately. I know Houston fans are not the most enthusiastic in the world but can we at least fill up the stadium every once in a while?

    1. Brent Barry shooting 40 percent throughout his career and shooting bricks when he finally plays for the rockets.

    2. Ron Artest shooting below his career averages once he arrives with the rockets.

    3. Rafer shooting around his career average

    4. Choking against the Pacers, Spurs and Blazers among others.

    5. Yao not being able to punish Bynum and other centers with single coverage
