    Right, we need to pass it in to our low post players.

    With the way we've been playing lately, I don't know where our next win is going coming from. For the sake of the rockets, I hope today's game is because of the B2B + Road game + Mid-season wall and not what the team looks like when we've been scouted properly.

    The refs sucked in this game also, so whistle-happy.

    so we done with the massive 3 attempts? it's very to sustain offensive output we keep relying on them this heavily.

    Patience is a virtue. Everyone inside this thread, sans a few, need some. We're the youngest team in the league and are going to have stretches like this; it comes with the territory. We also have a bright future (see: Harden, James; Parsons, Chandler; Asik, Omer). Panic setting in should NOT be an option.

    Because Lin is the only one with a TV commercial? :) Unless Rockets' coaches want to destroy TD's confidence or trade him soon, I have no idea why they didn't let TD play either. TD never screwed up in any game I have seen, yet he doesn't get to play.

    I only watched the 4th quarter...but looking at the stats....Jlin and Harden stat line looks like *****. Did they really play as bad as their stats suggest?

    Anyway, we need a legit second option, or on some nights as the first option to go along with Harden. Jlin is at best a 3rd or 4th option. Him as our second best player is going to be trouble. He is a facilitator, not someone to create offence IMO

    Where did that high-powered offense go? The worst part of this nightmare is that McHale doesn't seem to have any clue to right the ship.

    Sucks that we lost to probably the worst team in the league and let a couple d leaguers trash us in the process. I mean Chris Johnson? I thought he played for the titans

    It's not even about that.

    Johnson feasted in the 4th qtr because there was not anyone to put a body on him. He'd just get a rebound, and get fouled because the player on him was too small.

    He pretty much won this game for them because McHale didn't have a legit big in the game. It was really that simple.

    Then Mchale went EVEN smaller and then guess what happened? Kirilenko started feasting inside.

    It's not the loss that frustrate us. It's the way they lost, which team they lost to, that are unacceptable.

    This team needs a long weekend at a spa retreat while the coaching staff takes a class on how to coach.
