    It's not frustrating to me. No Dwight, no DMo, no Lawson in the second half. At least we made them bleed.

    Our defense is just as bad as it was last season. Shame.

    Ok we will see what this so called experiment leads to game 2 against GS during the season. Rockets don't look ready to play and looks like all we have is iso and pick and roll on offense... no ball movement. Stupid coaching and stupid playing. Coaches not maximizing the talent and skills this team has. F the it's preseason crap.

    I thought our defense was pretty good last year. Especially with Dwight in the lineup.

    No ball movement because that's not what the team is suited for.

    The team is suited to be fast and catch and shoot. It's built to maximize Harden and now Lawson's playmaking skills. They are the only two decent passers on this team. Without them on the court the team can't score.

    Yes, this is just preseason.

    So in regular season,

    TJ won't play like a girl?
    Beverly won't get raped again and again?

    I don't care if it's pre season, out defensive schemes are garbage and McHale hasn't integrated any new sets to our offense

    Just roll the ball out there and run run run

    Such a pity. Best roster in the league not going to be maximized thanks to an incompetent coach

    We just can't play any defense and our offense looks very disorganized - no coach orientation whatsoever. It is concerning since we play on Wednesday without Dwight and on Friday against the Warriors. Slow starts might hurt in the future...

    You realize the first half was basically even? With no Dwight.

    The second half we have no Lawson, and Clint has five fouls. I don't think it time to panic. We are going to have a great season.

    Teams find big men that can shoot free throws, but we can't :(

    The only defense way for us is to foul?

    I'm done watching this garbage and these scrubs. Entire pre season has been a waste. More about showcasing certified scrubs and D leaguers than our actual team

    Good bye. Have a good weekend fellas!

    Catch and shoot? Ok. Hot and cold equals inconsistent. We don't have a lot of pure shooters like spurs and warriors. We have attack guards and a team that should be playing defense so what's wrong with moving when you don't have the ball on offense and making quick decisive cuts to get open? Our offensive approach is old and outdated... it needs to wake up and realize it's 2015 NBA basketball we can't just ride off Lawson and Harden. Somebody will eventually get hurt and us Houston fans should know that by now.
