    i'll start. Sad how we cant win when Harden has a bad game. We've gotto cut out the turnovers


    That's all I got on the ventilation side. On the amelioration side, Wolverine looked just fine playing from the bench, as energetic as ever.

    DISCLAIMER: Feel free to use this thread after every loss. Thought maybe a catch all blame thread and sunshine response thread would help us ventilate and ameliorate in one thread versus one thread per player and coach, if not per game

    If this continues, which I am really hoping it doesn't, I hope Morey is prepared to make the necessary moves (coaching staff and possibly roster) to improve the team.

    28% field goal shooting for the MVP on the home opener of a season where we want to prove the doubters wrong... I'm just saying, I never saw Kobe or Wade pull **** like this.

    Surprised no one has blamed Adidas yet either.

    I'm not sweating. Hell, the 72-10 Bulls dropped the first game of the season against Boston who would end up being the worst team in the league.

    - JET over Thornton?

    - Harrell off for so long even though he showed he's better suited for this team than T-Jones?

    - Hardly any p'n'r action with Clint despite the lack of Denver's interior D?

    It's a sad state of affairs when you're out-coached by a person who the SACRAMENTO KINGS DIDN'T WANT IN THEIR ORGANISATION.

    It would be amazing to be the richest man in the world - the first thing I'd do would be to buy the Rockets and fire Kevin McHale seconds after signing on the dotted line.

    Mchale is just not a good coach.

    I had forgotten how bad he is. I forgot that I had to root for the team to win in spite of him.


    They will hopefully get better, but when shots aren't falling and they are having a rough time there won't be any offensive sets to fall back on. No ball movement. No one cutting and moving.

    Just a bunch of guys standing around waiting for the action instead of creating it.

    - More Harden pick and roll
    - Less turnovers
    - More Ty Lawson pick and roll
    - Less turnovers
    - More Ty + Harden lineups. Let them figure it out.
    - Less turnovers
    - More Harrell
    - Less turnovers

    Still can't wait until T Jones is traded. I just cringe when he enters the game.

    It's going to take a lot more than clapping your hands and saying "c'mon guys, now, play harder...c'mon guys!"

    I think you are definitely on to something: the improper ventilation at Toyota Center caused our guards and wings - Harden/Lawson/Ariza/Bev/Brewer - to shoot a combined 16-62 (25.8%) from the floor.

    Too well ventilated? Not ventilated enough? Would mid-range shots be less affected than 3's? Is a Parsons-esque linedrive jumper the right play? I'm no expert on air-current amelioration.
