    Rockets mostly played like garbage. TJ constantly getting these ass whippings from Aldridge. I expect TJ to show up the injury report with a blown glute.

    TJ is the softest player I have ever seen.
    Hate to see those soft plays. Damn.

    Disappointing defense so far. Would like to see harden sit out the 2nd half.

    I forgot that feeling. "The Rockets looks good, they have serious players... A shame that they dont have a proper head coach because then they would be a top championship candidate".

    Lawson hasn't shown up, came out playing scared. Harden is playing no defense. Rockets getting nothing from the PF spot.

    Harden is giving 0 effort on defense. It's preseason but man he let green get his rhythm. Green does one thing only. Just stay aware of where he is!

    Still love you harden

    10 man rotation will look like this until DMo plays.

    Lawson | Beverley
    Harden | Thornton
    Ariza | Brewer
    Jones | Harrell
    Dwight | Capela

    McDaniels, Dekker, Terry, Smith all bench guys.

    Btw the team did not play like garbage at all. They played really nice ball! Spurs are good and they are playing pretty hard (both teams are actually).

    Great game so far.

    Thanks to our own guns of ariza, brew, harrell and clint. Should be a good 2nd half, it's gonna be tough.

    If the Playoffs started right now and the Rockets were matched up against a team with a top level PF - I'd be so supportive of McHale if he benched Jones and let Harrell start.

    I have so much more confidence in his defense than T-Jones.

    He should be relegated to spot up minutes unless he's playing the cellar dwellers of the NBA.

    Take Harrell out once D mo is back and I see Marcus getting no more than 8 min.

    Rest of guys won't play unless foul trouble or injury. Dekker I expect to stay on the Vipers all season long. He isn't close to Nba level.

    Rockets will finally have a deep bench this season, it will fun to watch this team get better as the season rolls along. Both teams have come out ready to play tonight. Rockets still need to work on defending the 3pt line.

    I would have liked to see Lawson in those last 2 minutes of the half instead of Bev.

    None of our bigs can guard LMA especially T.Jones. We have to quick double him.
