IDK WTF is wrong with Dalembert but Camby can't play as much as he did in the last two games, it costed us in overtime. I trust they will bounce back and challenge the Bulls tomorrow but this little trend of playing OT in the first night of a b2b is awful.
Also, his + / - stats are amazing. http://basketballvalue.com/teamplayers.php?year=2011-2012&team=NJN
Then sign some "Jack Haley-type" douche to the league minimum to sit at the end of the bench and be douche-y. Or perhaps the Rockets' coaching staff can cultivate the douche-iness of Greg Smith or Courtney Fortson in the offseason.
We just lost the gas in our tank... all this OT playing recently has not been good. We seriously need to beat the rose-less Bulls tomorrow... or else off season, here we come!

They don't have adjusted +/- of more than 21 pts per 100 possession. Hump is seriously a good player on a very bad team.
Why the hell did Parsons take the final shot. He's the worst shooter on the team. He's a ball hog. Once he gets the ball he rarely passes
Terrible coaching decisions by McHale tonight. Why was Patterson in over Scola most of the 4th and overtime? Didn't make sense to me. And why the hell did he keep Dragic in with 5 fouls on Defense when we were fouling and he could've subbed him out and then subbed him in on the free throw? Instead, he let his best player foul out. Stupid stupid stupid.
What are you talking about??? Having Scola IN THE GAME at the start of overtime is probably what cost us the game! Scola almost turned it over on the first possession (before Lee saved his ass) and then failed to secure two rebounds in a row (or at least it seemed that way to me). It was that possession where the Pacers got FOUR chances and then scored their first or second bucket of the OT period. At least Patterson plays good defense. Not a signature game for Luis tonight. Let's hope he steps it up tomorrow.
It should have been a jump ball. That said, when the whistle wasn't blown and Lee came away with the ball, he should have tossed it to a Rocket sooner. He had some guys around him and that would've actually been better than a jump ball for us.
