    i don't think he's going to demand too much money... he deserves more than he is getting right now but still shouldn't be too costly

    Hopefully Twill plays next season if not for us for someone who will appreciate and develop his talents

    EXACTLY! The Fix has been in since Stern became commish. If you aren't a fan favorite team (Celtics, Lakers, etc) you have to want the game more and TAKE the victory; no one is going to help you gain that win.

    I can't think of a player that I want more in a critical game in the closing seconds than Brad Miller. :rolleyes: I watch alot of basketball and I don't think I have ever seen a team that struggles more with easy lay ups that the Houston Rockets of the last few seasons. I have no idea why, but it doesn't matter who comes to the team they go through periods where they can't make a lay up. The last several shots of tonight's game were missed lay ups. Amazing.

    PPat needs to work on his back to the basket game over the Summer to fully explode next year and wok on not moving on screens.

    Doesn't it cost money? Flagrants usually equate to fines.. I think unless the team pools money to help repay Brad, he's not willing to shell up to 10ths of thousands.

    Mr. I'm not gonna say we lost bc of the refs but I'm also curious to know this: Do you consider Landry's block a clean one or a goal tending? I watch games in crappy streams online so that may be it, but to me it looked like the ball would have to defy the laws of physics for it to be clean blocked like Landry supposedly did.

    We lost this game in 24 minutes not in 2, but Landry's "block", ugliest guy in the league drawing Miller's foul and NOLA's legs creating multiple turnovers, those are pretty questionable, which is what we're doing, and all went NOLA's way. -I swear I though I saw Roberto Carlos and Makelele out there.-

    I wish they'd start playing him now. It seems clear to me Lowry needs some rest, and there's no point waiting until we're mathematically eliminated from the playoffs.

    Give Williams backup PG minutes if only to showcase him for a trade this summer.

    You could tell Kyle was gassed carrying this team for almost half the season. If only Goran could have come up big in more than just 2 games (looks like he turned the corner today), Kyle wouldn't have had to play close to 40 minutes a night.

    You can tell Kyle is angry. I feel like he is going to work his ass off in the off-season now that he is the definitive leader of the Rockets. Bet he loses some weight too.

    was it the refs fault dragic missed an uncontested layup at the rim?

    was it the refs fault landry got a crucial rebound over scola AND hayes?

    was it the refs fault we made costly turnovers down the stretch?

    we had chances to have the game in our own hands and we did not capitalize on them.

    1)A for him, his post-game is very raw, the good thing about him is that he projects to improve every single year, ala Chuck.

    Good call. Forgot about the goal-tending. It's usually a couple of calls a game. It happened twice in the last Miami game. James Jones draws a BS foul on a 3 point attempt and Wade gets BS call at the end of first half. 5 points right there.

    what about no foul on paul punching lowry in the nuts?

    What about no foul on paul clearly pushing scola with his off arm?

    what about paul not getting called for a foul when he fouled dragic with his ass?

    what about his first 2 legitimate questions? nice job of avoiding them.

    i can say without hesitation that the Rockets win at least a couple of games more if the calls were just EVEN.

    that one was a 50-50 i've seen it called before but the other ones were clear fouls on paul those would've change the complexion of the game completely
