    Child plz.

    This is one of the busiest teams sites for any NBA team.

    Rockets will be just fine with or without Lin. Preferably he steps it up. There are not many haters, just Rocket fans who are criticizing his game. All rocket fans WANT to see him succeed.

    Can someone explain this call? Was Patrick out of bounds? How? Did he knock it out of bounds? Does it look like it came off Collison...Anyway we left Mayo WIDE open after this play, he hits an uncontested 3, 109-107 becomes 112-107...rest is history.

    Can't stand losing, especially to San Antonio & Dallas.

    It shouldn't...... Our two best defenders (Asik and Lin) were on the bench..........

    The Spurs loss was bad...but acceptable...bc thats how good that team is...

    This loss is not acceptable...having a 9 point lead in the fourth...and poor rotations..led to tired players, and largely ineffective ones down the stretch...that is clearly a fault of coaching...Mchale should just worry about the team playing defense and let Sampson run the offensive sets...

    Houston with zero interior defense this game. As far as perimeter defense went, Houston coaching staff fell in love with the Tney Uglas switch-on-the-perimeter defense once again. Of course, whomever Uglas switched to, he left wide open on the perimeter...again. This man is such a huge liability on defense it's not even funny. I mean, if you are going to play Uglas, at least leave Asik in there, Jaysis Kraist.

    It's his first game back..... personally I don't blame him. He is what he is.
    A mediocre coach

    Stop trying to create new terms for people just because they think one player did better than some " fans' " savior. It's a personal opinion but it doesn't mean they hold that player any higher than the next or that they're even a fan of that player. LOF, HOF, DOF....all this is trash. So is hoping that Lin gets traded to the lakers from these rookie posters in here. Plain garbage.

    The issue is that Mchale thinks his young guns will tell him when they get tired...but its Mchale's job to make sure they are fresh down the stretch...thats why they are starters...Fine if Dallas was playing small...your best post defender and rebounder best be in the game...there is no reseason he isnt...if not Asik...then Smith...not PPat

    Tonight had a remarkable example of his crappy screens. He slips his screen early (AGAIN!) and then friggin gets in the way of the ballhander Parsons by going in the same direction AND spot as Parsons. PatPat also has little sense or concern for team defense. PatPat is a clown.

    That small lineup out there tonight once had PatPat as the biggest frontcourt player. smh.

    All of them are better. They would play more than 4 black players too because they understand this is the nba not the NCAA.

    To make matters worse I had to suffer through Sean Elliot against the Spurs, then Derek Harper today.

    GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!
