    Why does MDA always shorten the rotation when the game is close ( in the first half )

    Ok ... Capela doesn't have juice ... Black did
    JJ looked bad ( as per always ) green has juice

    It makes me mad that he's so reliant on playing our best lineup so early .

    This is how you end up with Gordon , cp3 , Ariza , PJ , and Luc all playing heavy minutes .

    PJ Tucker has forced like 10 missed shots with his rotations. He is becoming our most valuable defensive player as we get closer to the playoffs.

    we had a comfortable lead before he came in. Since then we've ben playing from behind which is a mentality in itself

    We desperately need Ryno back to keep this scoreboard moving.

    Joe Johnson was a waste of a signing, surely there are more impactful players available

    Good come back surge, but the Rockets need to kick it into a second gear in the next half. CP3 looks off, even his dribbles are bouncing high, odd. Gordon must get hot, JJ must sit on the bench, and Capela needs to take an energy drink.

    Well, that was ugly. Rockets playing down to the Mavs' level. We are lucky to be one point ahead. Chew out some Rockets MDA at halftime. Murph not happy.

    I'd rather experiment on Chris Bosh than Joe Johnson. It's not like we will be losing anything.

    We're lucky we're playing this Dallas franchise being led by such basketball titans as Harrison Barnes and some guy named Collinsworth.

    I expect much better focus in the second half.

    Capela only has 2 pts....

    Chris Paul can't feed the ball to him as well as Harden can. I hardly ever see Capela-Paul alley oops.

    Playing badly and still winning. That is what good teams do

    Which a few of us knew heading into this season, and were excited about.

    I was absolutely giddy knowing what he could do for us.

    And then there were others.... 'he doesn't make 8 3's a game he's useless!'

    Tuck is going to be instrumental in our playoff run.
