    Mchale with some real head-scratchers this season.

    Why did we let a HOF coach leave for this guy again? :confused:

    Kevin McHale HATES big men! Jordan Hill only plays the first 5 minutes of every half and Dalembert offers too much length, shot blocking, and rebounding to be considered in our effectively s**** small ball lineups that feature T-Will at the 4?

    how many times have we heard this "and that's a new high score for the (insert any teams name) this season in an entire half" if only i had a dollar for every time i heard this watching a rockets game. and for those of you saying for t-will to drive it to the basket, he has been. he's just not making any layups because there's two shot blockers at the basket. hey, at least we're only down by 12. we still have a chance.

    "turrable half! just turrable.horrible Defense!" -Charles Barkley (originally said to knicks who were down by 34 points in 2008 at halftime vs the celtics)

    They've been on floor. Dalembert was largely invisible and Pat's minutes are only good for getting into game shape at the moment.

    This mismatch is on the wings anyway. Too strong and thick esp at SF opening up the floor for the guys around them.

    agreed, he just needs to have more confidence when he has the ball in his hands

    Are Les, DM, McHale and the entire Houston Rockets roster serious? We are letting the Clippers shoot almost 70% from the field on our faces and there is absolutely no hustle, pride to even make it less easy for them to just go straight to the paint?

    Pathetic

    their shooting is only gna go down if we can play better D maybe make it interesting because u have to remember the clips are playing terrible D too but we are turning the ball over soo much 5 extra turnovers -> 10 pts it would be much closer

    LOL compare them to the best teams. Why? WHAT HAVE THEY DONE TO DESERVE THAT?

    I know hes saying you have to do that to see what they're lacking, but they havent proved that they NEED to be compared to elite teams yet, so stop drooling all over them constantly. HOU still in this game because LAC not playing D either.
