    We should win 4 of the next 5, 16-14 after one of the hardest schedules (4th hardest) and the least experienced & a very young team, makes me proud of my Rockets achievements.

    We lost to the best in the west on a back 2 back, 4th game in 5 nights...not happy, but I ain't even mad.

    Turnover Machado! Scotty can't even play garbage time without embarrassing the team.

    Homework for 2013

    Harden- Man D
    Lin- 3's
    Parsons- uh...consistency? man d? seriously dude's a stud, lock him up!
    Morris/Patterson- Rebounds and protect the paint
    Asik-Hands and finishing
    Douglas-finishing at the rim
    Delfino-protect the ball better and heat checks
    Smith- stop fouling so much
    team- Pnr defense, defense in general, less turnovers

    if everyone does their homework, we will be GOOD

    Aw, Lin looks so sad walking to the locker room :)

    I expect a comeback game against the Hawks. If there's anything we can expect from Lin after a bad game it's an A in effort.

    Call me old school but after the other team has just kicked your butt for the second time, I'm not trying to be all warm and fuzzy with them after the game on the court. I know Harden is close friends with the Thunder players but they can be friends in the off season. Show some anger at least, geesh.

    A rookie making a turnover in garbage time embarrasses your team:confused:? Go watch another sport ;)

    THIS TEAM IS VERY GOOD its just that the open shots we created weren't coming in... just like at the beggining of the season....however in a 2-3 months time we will be deadly opponent and nobody will want to play vs rockets in playoffs...

    Gotta give Uglas some props. The dude really fought hard to claw his way back from his -40 all the way to -31 in garbage time to end the game.

    Hey guys, we're 0-2 against OKC so far.. That means we have 2 more chances this season to even it up, so it's not over yet okay???

    Mook didn't play in garbage time...just saying, if you're going to be a critic, at least get your facts straight.

    Okay, a blowout loss to one of the best teams in the league on 4th game in 5 nights. Call it taking our lumps.
    Still think we are way ahead of the curve with this team.
