    Yeah I'm not impressed at all by the Pelicans. This effort tonight by the Rox has been pathetic so far. They came out like they didn't take the Pelicans seriously.

    Would definitely be a good time to throw Gerald out there and just let him shoot. No one else is hitting anyways.

    I also don't understand why we chose to go with Capela on Cousins. We are being killed on the pick and roll with Davis because we have shorter non athletic guys guarding him. I am surprised the adjustment wasn't made. Let Anderson guard Cousins. I'm disappointed with the coaching job tonight.

    We are just about to play ourselves out of this game....fat lady hasn't sung but she's warming up. Just a pitiful all around performance. Still not over but can't allow much more scoring.

    Is that going to solve our defense too? What combination of Tucker/Anderson/Nene/Capela is good enough in games like this that you don't think it's urgent to upgrade our front court?

    Green showing more fire from the bench then anyone playing on the court.

    the rockets are built to compete with the warriors who also have a weak frontcourt.

    against teams like the pelicans and thunder who have a good front court they struggle.

    The problem is Ryno is getting a lot of minutes to help guarding the two all star bigs.

    And considering that Ryan sucks ass playing him extended minutes is a formula for failure.

    We need to put in nene ... Not so we have more bulk but so that he can give those floppers a few "real" shots .

    They are playing really well and very smart.

    And frankly, we still aren't a very smart team

    Pelicans are simply a horrible matchup for us. Lets be honest.

    By the way, when did Harden become strictly a halfcourt player? I remember when he was one of the best players in the League on the break.
