    Win. The Pistons havent been playing well after their hot start. Morris has come down to earth. They cant shoot well and they have pitiful bench.

    Drummonds will be a tough cover, Jackson, and Pope will give our back court fits.

    Going to be challenging, but our Rockets will squeak away with another hard fought win.

    Lets go Rockets

    Win and make it 3 in a row pls!!! Let's hope for the first double digit win this season!!

    On a side note, I don't know what has been worse so far this season, watching the Rockets struggle night after night or reading this board with all the player bashing.

    I like the Capela/Howard combo. They just seem to have a better chemistry. Also..I just don't want to see effin TJones starting ever again..

    Sounds like the Rockets only without the hot start. This is definitely a winnable game, but we've had tons of those already this year and got our asses kicked.

    I'm not even gonna attempt to make a prediction about tonight, but what worries me is that we're now 17 games in(over 20% of the season) and the defense still sucks and almost no one can shoot the ball. At some point, you have to come to terms with the possibility that this is no cold streak or bad start. It's quite possible we just have a sh-tty team.

    Last night some Paraffin dude went off. Today it's probably some other scrub who will go off. Or it could be a former Rockets players who usually do well against us so perhaps it's the Melo Lite Mook Morris

    I guess we should lose and go back down in the standings then.

    Now that Capela is playing ball, there is nothing that can stop us. We are the heart of main street NBA now. Money in the bank. Win.

    Reggie Jackson will go off tonight no doubt in my mind. Players keep going off on us because we don't play any defense until players are hot & suddenly cant miss. If Harden along with the rest of the team plays the stellar defense they did throughout the 2nd half of last night's game from tip off then the likes of Afflalo, Caanan & Covington won't be hitting heavily contested off balance shots. We allow these scrubs to build rhythm then decide to start playing D when we're down by double digits.
