    Heh, great minds....you know the rest. You make a great point though. Not only did the Rockets get off to a terrific start last year(19-5), they did it with a ton of guys out and relying on the likes of Cisco, Black, Johnson(remember that game winner in Minnesota?), Dorsey, and Canaan. Seriously, that team had no business winning at that kind of clip.

    Compare that to this year's roster which is far more talented and healthy. Something's gotta be going on behind the scenes, cuz there's no justification for them to be performing this poorly.

    You are one of those keyboard warrior, whiners, always sad, no life fan.

    Well what fanbase doesn't have one of those?

    McHale is a terrible coach and he has to go. But he started with Harrell because there is no way Thornton was gonna be able to guard Faried or Gallo.

    what a joke, this team is looking more and more like a lottery team to me, thousand miles from a contender, maybe will be in playoffs

    Thornton was close to a laughing stock on defense too, he is just a Casspi with a hot hand now.

    Well, other than our 2 big guys, who isn't a laughing stock on defense in this team anyway.

    Shut up, delusional troll

    If you think these performances are acceptable and we should just keep quiet, you are beyond help. Stick to eggball Texans and low expectations.

    Lol, Jsizzle isn't a delusional homer man.

    Difference is some people WANT the team to win under Mchale and some people seem to want him to lose so they can say "I told you so."

    They're lottery bound if this is how they play defense. You cannot get spanked twice by the f'ing Nuggets! The Warriors, maybe. But not the Nuggets.

    Brewer and McDaniels for Gallanari. You think the Nuggets would do it?

    I think Lawson needs to come off the bench.

    You can blame Mchale for all you want, he is indeed responsible for preparing us players t be ready for the game.

    But this bunch of players except couples are all heartless quitters, and mind forked dumb ass, no efforts losers.

    I wish someone stood up against McHale in the locker room the way Boogie did.

    Hey, I want the Rockets to win. But that's not going to happen under this coach. Last year is looking like a fluke. Harden had a brilliant season, the role players all stepped up, McHale and his staff seemed far more motivated and in control.

    I get that Harden's off to an up-and-down start this year, and several of the role players are struggling. But there's no excuse for them to be THIS awful defensively. That's all about effort and they ain't giving any out there.

    Lawson currently playing like he needs to stay on the bench.

    It seems as if Josh Smith may have been the heart and soul of this team last year.

    I've never seen such a bizarre turnaround in a year's time with essentially the same (core) players. Are they all getting drunk with Ty pre-game or something? I just don't get it.
