    Wasn't expecting much, but hoped the team would play with a little bit of fire.
    So far same ol crap. Hope BJ and Finch can pull a rabbit out there &$$$$ cause we need something.

    Too early to jump the gun, but I agree. I never understood the premise that firing McHale, but promoting JB or Finch would suddenly solve the Rockets problems on offense. The coaching staff, not just McHale, the entire staff constructed this abomination we call an offense. It doesn't magically transform into the Warriors, Spurs, or Hawks offense just because JB's the coach now. Some people here seem to think so, and I just don't know understand how anyone could ever come to that conclusion.

    It's pretty hard to play defense when you are shooting 25% from the field.

    You can't criticize the team for not playing Hard tonight. Harden, Dwight, Ariza are all hustling out there. But like we already know that wasn't the sole reason for our poor start. Shots aren't falling out there and players can't get easy baskets.

    Our bigs should be dominating in 2nd chance points with the amount of bricks we tossed up tonight but they're getting blocked and missing bunnies as usual. They seriously lack athleticism or touch. Morey's to blame for that.

    LOL

    You sound like Morey just hired a guy from a Moscow team in the Euro league.

    Typical fans - there are always excuses.

    Lawson has been a joke so far this year the guy is just NOT that good and he is really bad on this team !

    Stick a for in this team, beginning to believe it was all luck last year and Harden... Have no clue what has happened with this guy but that look he gave Bullard after the Clipper game may have been his undoing !

    Well, now we know what it felt like to be a Lakers fan when they fired Mike Brown.

    Any idiot that thought it would all turn around today just because Mchale got fired deserves to be disappointed.

    I wish Dwight would stop passing it out of the paint when he gets a rebound. Sure, if he were playing on the Warriors this would be a good idea. But he's not. Just go up and dunk it.

    Harden and Lawson should be the best bricking combo.

    I still see Harden letting his man shoot wide open 3 pointers, the rest is playing hard defensibly, not much new defensive strategy by the effort is there.

    This is just too brutal to watch, I honestly believe even Will Cummings could be a better player than him now.
