    Wilson Chandler was struggling before tonight.

    Rockets lack of defense has recharged him. He looks like Hall of Fame material out there.

    We are a boon for struggling teams.

    Looks like the team wants a new coaching staff.

    W. Chandler honed his skills playing bal lin china. Forget D-league send the whole team to china along side with T mac.

    The coaching staff has to go first - they will screw up anybody

    Asik isn't great. It is obvious. But if you expected Yao out of him you are an idiot. Give him a few years. His handles will get better. This is the first year he has had a starting role, much less being involved in an offense. You are an idiot if you expect him to walk in and be a badass. Remember Yao used to have the same problem his first few years in the league. Let me guess, you probably didnt watch then.. Deal with it

    What gave anyone the impression that Mchale could coach?

    We all saw this coming though.

    They beat the Bobcats by 4, and that is pretty much the only game they've won in the past what 9 games?

    It's getting ridiculous how much Harden is being coddled by coaching staff.

    He at least needs to be held accountable for TOs and defense. I get that he's the "superstar" but that shouldn't mean you're immune from coaching or criticism.

    People keep saying the Rockets' defense generates offense.

    Strictly speaking, it's more like their Stupid McHale Ball(tm) generates great opponent offense in transition, which in turn cuts out the Rockets' transition offense. When the Rockets plays Lin brings ball up court, immediately pass it off or pass it off 2 sec later to a player coming off an off-the-ball screen, the offense sucks and the opponent gets easy baskets. This does not allow the Rockets to play half-court defense, which generates offense.

    So it's like a double whammy when they play Stupid McHale Ball(tm) on offense, the completely useless Harden tunnel vision offense generates awesome transition offense for the opponent, which in turn destroys the Rockets' transition offense. That's how you go from blowing good teams out by 20 to losing to mediocre teams by 20.
