He didn't have to score as much because the Rockets were starting to blow them out and some of the other Rockets players were starting to heat up.
Just think how good this team could be if Morris turns out to be a decent defender at the SF position. That would counter Martins defensive liability and Chucks height. Then a starting line up of Lowry, Martin, Morris, Patterson and Chuck would be a better already. That would also make our bench that much better in scoring with Dragic, Williams, Bud, Scola and Don Motie/ Thabeet.
I think you're exactly right, there are a few reasons to be really high on this team, however we would still be super deficient at a certain #5 position..
