    Look at the standings, Western Conf playoffs spot is still up for grabs, Utah lost to NY minus Amare and Carmelo!! Lakers have the same record as us. And this Denver team is gonna go on a losing streak with a few key players out. Rockets really need to take advantage of this

    Get real. We had all the antics going full bore tonight. Scola, Martin, even Lowry was flopping around like he'd been shot in the kneecap with a 45.

    They were missing a lot of players, if Galinari doesn't get hurt, I suspect this might have gone the other way.

    That's because they're our players. If they were the 3 top players of an opposing team, we'd probably view them as a team of floppers too. Especially with the way Matt Bullard is constantly crying about flopping on the telecasts.

    Bro we get it. It was ugly. What do you want the rox to do, appeal to stern to give us an L instead for basketball reasons?

    now u guys hate flops we know martin is a flopper who cares if the refs call it then you take advantage , its part of the game blame the refs not the players , sometimes u flop u get the call sometimes kobe doesnt get touched he gets the call refs suck in this league they help you sometimes and sometimes they kill you or they dont see a stomp when everyone in the arena sees it

    To flop or the ability to flop is just part of the game, it happens all the time night in and night out. If you see a huge guy, like Koufos, charging toward you off your screen, do you want to hit him hard? Afterall, this is not NFL games. To me, shying away after the contact in a difficult postion, so called "flopped", is way better than steppying out-of-bound or turning it over.

    Professional basketball is finding ways to win. Case closed.

    No team can use their "missing our superstar" against us, since the rockets are incomplete.

    Even though Yao retired, you could say he is still our missing superstar, since this team was basically built to support him, and we didn't get anything of value for Yao.

    I want Morey to make a blockbuster trade for a true superstar or move out at least Scola for another draft pick and expiring and lose every game we can. ONE OR THE OTHER!!! Not this nonsense of trying to play our butts off for a #14 pick!!!!

    that was an uglay game from start to finish by both teams. I doubt having gallo out there was going to make much of a difference. There was just a lack of buzz in that building. No wonder they have more road victories.

    Mctalky is growing on me, playing adrien was a brilliant mood. Adrien looked like the dominican incredible hulk out there. A win is a win.

    Morey's hands are tied. Go talk to Lesly.
