    If the law of averages is a thing the Rockets are going to get insanely hot sometime during the season.

    Ive been saying it since we got him. Hes a vet min and thats why. If he was consistent lights out shooter he wouldnt have been that cheap. He is what he is.

    Lawson takes that cake though. He's probably the worst defender I've ever seen.... and he tries

    Rockets look s so slow. even if they didn't have an offense they were relentless runners.. now they just trot it up like they can run something that will get points.

    Harden/Howard/Ariza are the only players really doing anything

    The lack of athletic quick perimeter defenders is noticeable

    I hope we're signing Vince Carter next offseason. We need some consistancy.

    Thornton provides spacing kj will not be respected at all and will clog the lanes for lawson and harden and dwight.

    I agree we need to try KJ out. Especially if Thornton and Brew are not giving you scoring. Put in a guy that can give you some defense and hopefully a spark.

    Defense dropped in the second quarter, especially when Lawson was playing with Thronton. Don't like that lineup at all. Conley is scoring to easily on Terry. Dwight looks good. It is a winnable game in my opinion.

    KJ also provides shot blocking, rebounding and just all around defense. Something Brewer and Thornton just don't posses. When their shots aren't falling which is usually always KJ should get time.
