    It's been too long since a players only meeting and it shows.

    I miss Kevin McHale. Seriously.

    I really have some beautiful memories when McHale is the coach.

    Bingo! On top of all this still no sign of Goldilocks who can actually hit 3's and layups at a high percentage as well as create off the dribble...Montez riding the bench...all this makes sense somewhere in the Universe I suppose

    and this is why Pops and some other coaches would've BENCHED a starter by now. No way Pops would tolerate a full season of lazy 1st/2nd period starts to games without a shake up in the roster/rotations

    Howard is the only one we can say he playing lazy ball.

    Can we rest Howard for 2 games? He was sucking in recent games.

    I don't think the lazy is the issue.

    I think coach is the main problem.

    If we have McHale, I believe we can win this game.

    DH12 needs more touches, give him the ball and let do his thing like he did in the playoffs.

    Lol. Still have people say this...

    If you watch how Howard play on the court, you won't say this.

    Howard is a lazy idiot. His goal tending every game driving me crazy.

    Howard is done as garbage player now. Plus, he is -23 on the court.

    Rockets obvious wanted Harden to get that last shot. He was 4 of 11 on his 3s. Rest of Rockets went 3 of 22.

    yea and he almost turned the ball over..not necessarily his fault as much as the coach having Howard in the game to start with allowing a potential mistake...ridiculous
