    It came down to a wing player getting red hot again from the outside. CJ Miles took over last game. Affalo this game.

    I wasnt disagreeing with you...You was right on your post. Lowry isn't the problem. We have several problems...guys cant create their own shots, to rebounding, to not boxing out..you name it.

    It really blows my mind to see people on here complain and comment on kyle lowry being over rated. First of no one rated him an all star or said he was freaking steve nash but seriously people we have one of the deepest front courts in the league, which is why the lakers are just dying to get a go at kyle lowry cause they realize the potential this guy can bring on a team that has stars. All great point guards in the league have their stars to play along side them. Westbrook and Durrant, Rose and Deng, Kidd and Nowitzki. You put a player like gasol alongside kyle lowry and watch this team soar.

    I hear you man but dont say hes over rated when the guy is seriously the only thing good about this team right now. I know you werent meaning it in a demeaning way but the guy has seriously in the two years hes started improved year in and year out. And he does it all averaging almost 6 rebounds almost 7 assists 2.5 steals a game plus 16 points and 1.5 threes. That aint average or underated to me.

    nice idea but probably going to have to throw something more in then that. Possibly terrence williams and hasheem thabeet. seeing as golden state needs a big man.

    What are you talking about? If it came to wing players getting red hot then KM scored 35 this game. We got beat on rebs and D. Afflalo was able to penetrate at will and their bigs outrebounded us 49 to 35, with 19 offensive rebounds. THe wings are fine, we need better bigs who can defend and rebound.

    That's just adding more garbage. Even if the Rockets offered their entire starting five, GS would still not do that trade.

    i hate to be Morey tonight, 3 am and getting texty texts from Mclovin.
    Morey, turn off your cell!


    I hope coach mixes it up next game on the front court. So many of those boards that they were not getting were due to a lack of effort. The ball going between three rockets and none of them being able to get it. pathetic.

    McHale: It's effort, it's technique, it's want to. It's a myriad of things we aren't doing right now. ... Very disappointing. ... We didn't play very tough. ... That team right there, that's a double win [for them]. We talked about that. We talked about Faried, Mozgov, Koufos. Those guys had 14 of the 19 offensive rebounds. Can't let those guys do what they did. They went out there and out-rebounded us. ... We gotta play better against the Clippers. That's all.

    Lowry: Outworked us tonight. Had guys that were more hungrier than we were. We didn't come with max effort or intensity. ... Gotta play through the fouls. Gotta adjust to the [refs]. ... I thought we would bounce back tonight but got another chance Sunday. Gotta be ready to play. ... They got too many wide open layups and transition. A focus thing.

    He said the same thing about the Utah Jazz after the game: hungrier than we were.

    I say lock the team in an empty room with no food and hopefully they'll be hungrier than the Clippers by Sunday.


    Or maybe they'll just slaughter Hasheem Thabeet and eat him.

    Charles Barkley would use two words to describe the rockets rebounding and interior defense. JUST TURRIBLE!!
