    The Rockets are a young team that can run - an advantage they didn't have over the Nuggets. Critical will be the perimeter shooting. If perimeter shooting shows up, the Rockets have a chance. Otherwise the Grizzlies can just pack the paint and cruise to an easy victory.

    Let's see if the offense has changed at all tonight. If they just do the weave and whoever has the ball with 5 seconds left is responsible for chucking it, then it's official that McHale can't coach.

    I was wondering what happened to Cook (especially with the Rockets only hitting 1 in 4 from the 3). I saw him for about 5 minutes in the Pistons game jacking up a couple shots that hit the edge of the backboard. Was not confidence inspiring.

    Bad news. Cook may be a lot of things but he has no business being an NBA player. Should have cut him and kept Gary Forbes.

    Great news. Cook can do what Lin has been doing these last 2 games.

    D-MO is not NBA ready yet. Put him out there on Zbo, Gasol or speight and he will get torched.

    I don't understand why D-Mo doesn't get any run at all if we want a 4 who can space the floor. I get that his defense is weak, but I was under the impression that is pretty much what he is. He should get 10-12 minutes with Harden.
