    Minny could have run away with this game.

    Rockets don't match up athletically just like they don't with the CLIPPERS OR THUNDER... This is the nba unfortunately can't outsmart our way to greatness.

    As much as I hate the zone, it may be the only way to stop them right now

    It's a miracle we're only down by 10 atm, we're still in this game.

    The score could be a lot worse for us out there. Glad we're only down by 10

    We are struggling, but outside of Kevin Martin, we are playing hard...

    Them having an off night and finding a way to win while scoring 108 is evidence that they are a good scoring team and not a bad one. Your argument really doesn't make sense when on a bad night they still found a way to put up 108.

    Rockets shooting under 40% while Minny shooting 60%.

    They need someone who can attack the basket instead of settling for jumpers. They are dying by the jumper.

    Kyle Lowry is killing the rockets d by attempting to go after the offensive boards. I've counted 5 times where he has gone after the board, missed, and Rubio leaked out to start the break.

    Corrected.

    Gawd, please let us have a way out of this....something at the trade deadline or a purge of some of these guys for draft picks. Something.

    I love my Rockets, and I don't want a divorce from them, but sometimes the eyes get to wandering....

    Didn't say they were, but I know we are NOT definitively better than them, especially not after they got Barea and Beasley back.

    I do know that Love, Rubio, Williams, Beasely, Pekovic, Barea, Randolph is a great amount of young talent that the Rockets would kill to have right now and they are only improving under a coach like Adelman, who provides them with a structured offense. We, on the other hand, seem to be regressing a bit.
