    Douglas and Morris need to be absolutely zero on the depth chart at this point.

    Why are people mentioning Lowry? If we didn't trade him, we wouldn't have Harden. Lol

    Bingo!! I have been saying this for a while now. This simpleton offense is just ridiculous and it is going to run our players ragged. You would think we had the Dream Team with this "free roam offense". I mean that's the only rationale I could see for using it - the players are so talented we don't need sets. Otherwise, use off-the-ball screens and motion to make scoring potentially easier. Even the Lakers with all of their talent are using the "Princeton Offense" in an attempt to help facilitate scoring and Miami uses a lot of off-the-ball screens. I just don't get McHale's philosophy on offense; it seems very lazy, unimaginative and simple. Hard work can only go so far, at some point to have to play smart also.

    I bet that 4.5 mil not sounding as good when you have career game and are barely sticking with the Pistons.

    This bench is seriously hurting me. Mentally, physically and emotionally. I don't know why McHale isn't playing the rooks, but that better change next game.

    PS: Lowry is sooooooo good.

    Rockets w/ the weakest bench in the NBA?

    Sure looks that way. Time to get TJ, Motie, and Royce involved.

    But not Dragic AND Lin, so we'd still be in the same boat. Lin hasn't been the problem tonight, it's been Douglas and Morris and Parsons.

    I have seen a year of McHale sucking as coach. Morris clearly does not deserve the playing time he is receiving. An old school coaching trick is to play the guy behind you on the depth chart a ridiculous amount of minutes in order to hammer home a point. McHale is old school. Maybe Morey wants to play Morris to raise his trade value, thus McHale is hammering home a point that way. Can't make it any more clear than that.

    I will not renew my season tickets if McHale is the coach next season. That's the bottom line. My highschool ball coach would be a better coach than he is.

    Parsons needs to get **** together. Delfino is taking awful shots. Took a dribble up, guarded 3 a feet behind the line and airballs it.
