    Because they actually played aggressive perimeter defense, allowing a guy like Pekovic to destroy them inside and on the boards (smart play because that is going for %).

    NJ would have won a game like yesterday 9/10 considering what happened

    lo. i didn't say we had better young talent. i just said that we have young players with potential to. and this isn't an argument about which team is better currently. i was just pointing out we are getting some nice young potential all stars soon. and morris definitely has potential. he will be a very good player.

    Can't see the Rockets tanking... they missed the boat on that. It would take an injury to Kyle and then trades of Scola and/or Martin, and soon, to even crack the 8-10 range of bad teams.

    They're going all out and hoping for something to open up by March 15th.

    Utah and Denver has leapfrogged us too. We are all proud Rockets fans, but the tankers were right after all: mediocre talent produces mediocre results. Without an infusion of real talent, we will look outmatched in nights like this.

    Luis is the oldest payer on our team and it's becoming more and more obvious that this compressed schedule is having an impact towards his game

    May be by design. It's still creating mismatches.

    Patterson midrange is money. I would love to see the rockets run more plays for him to put take adcantage of his shooting ability.

    You kno, when the opposition is beating us witha specific, player they keep coming back to that player until we make an adjustment on defense.. WE need to run more pick and pops with PatPat and whoever the gaurd is.

    Looks like Mchale's being outcoached right now. We've been running the same offensive we ran last year. Apparently, the Adelman offense isnt very effective against it's creator.


    In Morey we trust:rolleyes:

    As of right now?
    Rubio > Lowry
    LR > Martin (ever since LR started at the two, they have been better)
    Beasley > Parson
    Love >>>> Scola
    ?????? (dont know his name) < Dally (but tonight Dally isnt showing it)

    Anymore questions that you should know?
