    Lowry played great. Rumours of his demise were greatly exaggerated.

    Parsons has no shot.

    Kmart is hurt by the new foul rules.

    Oh, he is a joke all right. Signing Darko 4 years 20million, drafting 3 point guards in his first draft as a GM in 2009. Trading AL Jefferson for Kosta Koufos and two draft picks (Ok move) The only good thing he's done is hire Adelman.

    Yeah, the homerism needs to stop. No way our future is better than the Wolves. Bash Kahn all you want, but he is quietly doing a good job with the Wolves like someone already said.

    Mchale outcoached Adelman.

    Rick just has more size, firepower, and talent to work with.

    We have big men problem, Dalembert is sucky at offense and Scola is sucky at defense. It is obvious that Rockets have to shoot outside to win games. And big teams will be pounding the ball inside because Scola and Patterson who are finishing games, can't stop it. Adelman is no dummy picking TWolves because he went to a team with an dominant All-Star player.

    so if we win in denver on monday were all on the rockets bandwagon and were definitely a playoff team but if we lose to minny on sat were a bad team , u guys are whack not even 50 % of the season has passed ! just a bad game for kevin martin this game showed we had fight and gave ourselves a chance to win it a couple of T's and the lee blown layup were bad , but you gotta see the positives too sometimes everyone on this thread is negative , and for all those saying kahn is a genius , kahn is an idiot he was the laughing stock of the league , he drafted flynn and they were so bad for 5 years when i say bad i mean soooo bad , adelman is the differencemaker not kahn

    Lowry plays terrific for over a year

    "He is having a hot streak"

    Lowry has a shaky month.

    "See? I told you so"

    Only, you know, the team has always been better with Lowry.

    This is true. This isn't Morey's fault though.

    Apparently the organization as a whole just don't believe in it.

    The cold hard truth is in the NBA you are rewarded handsomely for losing. In the NFL for instance you can still draft in the middle of the first round and still get great players...as the Texans have proved. Since there are so many positions you can draft 15 and still get the best CB or 2nd best depending on the teams ahead of you and what they need.

    NBA is just not like that. Most teams are drafting BPA so by the time you get to 14 all you've got is another role-player. Next thing you know you have a team full of role players that is good enough to float around in mediocre land.

    The Rockets should be developing young players but that 8th seed is just too important to them.

    The Wolves would have 3-4 wins if McHale didn't trade OJ Mayo for Love. Let's not forget about that, especially.

    McHale: I didn't see the Love/Scola play. We started off with no D intensity. Gave them what they wanted. Tried to battle back. We had chances. We can't be a pretty team. We have to go out and fight and [play] like we did when we got mad.

    Actually not true, it is just the same.
