    our pick and roll defense was a bit better, but it was still awful... We let Spurs grabbed 16 offensive rebound...

    Remember when we used to lose these type of close games all the damn time last season? Hard to believe we've been pulling these off with lately.

    Damn Parker is a handful. Good win but lets get some practice time in on handling the pick and roll please?

    Dalembert is one reason. He's better than I thought he was.

    Honestly we were sayin lowry should be an allstar as much as i love the guy , Chris paul , westbrook will get the nod over him and if they need another guard then tony parker showed how great he is tonight

    Dalembert continues to impress me; he is much better than I expected. He is really a defensive presence in the middle. We haven't had that for awhile.

    Who's better: Parker or Lowry?

    Dalembart has this tendency to not know it's his teammate he is fighting to get a rebound with. Sometimes causes us the possession. Other than that, good game.

    I see the unnecessary fading on 3 someone mentioned about Parsons.

    Hill should not be allowed to take jump shots - just dunks!

    Patterson...get well?

    I like that McHale isn't afraid to mix it up with substitutions. Is it stat-based?

    We need an athletic PF that can create his own shot and also for others.

    Half of the points Parker got were coming off illegal pics. That's why Lowry was so frustrated and pissed. I'd take Lowry over Parker. Better Defender and clutch player. Lowry scored when it most mattered and his team won. Parker is just a little b**** lucky to get the all-star treatment.

    Parker has reached all-star level ages ago... Lowry is just approaching it...

    I like Lowry, but I think Parker answered that question in these first two games this season.

    Since Hill got benched after 7 minutes and 31 seconds can we PLEASE bring Marcus Morris up from the D-League and give him a shot in some real NBA action? Or is he injured from twisting his ankle a week ago? Anyone know the situation here?

    When hill came in we blew the lead. As soon as mchale benched him, we came back and pulled away.

    Nice win by the Rockets. Knew that a true C was what the team needed, now just need for Hill to play better as the backup C.
