    Yall are sad.

    You come out after every single bad game a person has and kicks them when they are down. As if Yao NEVER had terrible games when he was becoming a star player.

    He's had more than '2 good games'

    So has the other starters who are all playing worse than usual.

    The Lakers' athleticism would overwhelm him.

    This type of basketball is so...gross. Douglas & Delfino doing good though.

    No, Sampson should wake up the starters during the break and make them play like they should be playing.

    Parsons is playing great defense though. Kobe is just in the zone and shot the ball 18 times already...

    I can shoot better than Lin. Give me just 1 of his 25 million and I'll make the open threes.

    Washington might win against Miami.

    MWP and Kobe are both playing hot.

    Our entire team is ice cold except TD. As I read that sentence that I just wrote, it occurs to me that that is literally the ABSOLUTE WORST case scenario for us.

    Thinking about it....

    I think it's asik on the offensive end that keeps us from getting into a flow. Looks like when smith is in the game he flashes better and there are actually driving lanes. When asik is on the court it seems like there's less room for guys to work with.

    With Lin and harden both wanting to drive we need better spacing. They have no where to go....

    Asik needs to get out of the way and learn when to flash.

    What is wrong with the Rockets today? They looked a little tired and out of it. The Rockets have the talent to beat the Lakers tonight but they look a step slow. James Harden need to stop letting the official get to his head.

    I know lately the officials has been ignoring a lot of calls for James Harden but he needs to continue being aggressive and just get to the basket and force the officials to call the foul. The Rockets will lose every single game unless Harden and Lin plays more aggressively. It will be a tough night for Parsons because Kobe is amped up to play tonight.

    I agree, but what can you do about knee jerk reactions. Our team is young and most of them are inexperienced; there's bound to be nights like this.

    A big thing that the Rockets don't do well is pass in transition. It is easier to defend the dribble than the pass. In transition players get into tunnel vision mode. I have seen this particularly with Harden & Parsons thus far tonight.

    Another half hopefully our starters step up.

    Don't forget Joey Crawford. Never forget Joey Crawford.
