    the rockets are currently last in the west. while some say tanking atleast is something that we are getting out of losing, well it isnt. Simply because the teams not making the playoffs in the east all have a worse record than the rockets, granting them a higher pick. Where is this team headed.....

    Ironically if they would have won tonight they would have been 1 game out of 1st place (in the loss column) in the division.

    There is no irony in it. We are not crap and we are not good.

    Unfortunately when the schedule eases up, the Rockets will start generating wins and will end up with a .500ish season again.

    alas, last in western conference is simply not enough. we need to step up and leave it all out on the court, no need for complacency here. with the wind at our fronts, we'll soon get to last in the league overall, aka the promise land

    The Rockets will get better. Patterson is starting to round into shape, Lee will come back eventually, Morris might still yet be a good player for us this season, and the schedule will certainly get much easier.

    When its all said and done, we'll be right around the .500 mark.

    Who cares? We literally have no chance to make the playoffs anyway. Cut our losses.

    If we cant Dwight

    Draft Anthony Davis, and use the Knicks Pick to get Myck Kabongo or Kendall Marshall, as much as i hate to say it, we might need to trade Lowry( to get a Top 5 Pick) and draft Gilchrist from Kentucky( no way that kid will be a bust, he has Kobe Bryant like work ethic from what i hear)

    With that schedule, 3-7 is great! It's one more game than I thought we were going to win.

    Time to look at trading away Scola and if possible Martin.

    If Randy Foye and Mike Miller can get you the 5th pick (Rubio), then Scola and Martin should at least be worth the 8th pick this year.

    Insane schedule to start the season. The only game we had against a team which won't be in the playoffs come end of year was the Bobcats, and we won that.
