    Exactly. Hopefully its a wake up call and they won't take another bad team for granted.

    We have a totally of 21 b2b's and 3 4-in-5s, most likely the most among all teams.

    Our players all look so tired from the beginning of the game.

    This. This so much. It kills me every time I see Parsons or Delfino bringing the ball up. Heck, I've seen Parsons wave off Harden. How many times do these two guys have to turn it over trying to create something before McHale realizes that only Harden and Lin (and to an extent Beverley) should be running point???

    That no look pass Delfino attempted (which ended up out of bounds) was hilarious though.

    Unfortunately so many members here are game-by-game fans.

    One good game and he's the GOAT. One bad game and he's a scrub.

    Sigh... seems like a bunch of children posting here sometimes.

    He is the best perimeter defender on the Rockets, so you're stupid.

    Lin and Delfino both were bad tonight but the main culprit is clearly McHale. Subbing Beverly for Lin. Not leaving a timeout so that everyone can crash the boards. Leaving Delfino in for the final defensive possession. Just brain-dead coaching.

    I don't care how many good teams the Wizards have beaten recently. No decent team takes them seriously. And it's extremely infuriating to be one of those teams.

    Anyone focusing on one guy instead of the team is not exactly thinking of the Rockets.

    The Wizards are #1 in the NBA at covering the spread. Washington is an entirely different team with everybody healthy, especially Wall, which is why their record is meaningless. All the smart/sharp money was on the Wizards to cover while the public/squares were all betting on Houston. I was hoping the Rockets would win by 1, which is why my money was on the Wizards.

    Very good games by D-Mo and Trevor Ariza.

    But, but, MJ did it!

    Seriously though, I agree with you that McHale should've just DNP Lin tonight and let Beverly/Anderson play.

    Hate to burst your bubble but that's why he's not an allstar and a max player. He's going to have a couple of bad games. The sooner you can except that he's young and still learning, you won't be so disappointed after a couple of bad games. Lower your expectations a bit. Who do you think he is, Harden?

    We were down to 8 players. Couldn't help but keep him in. In any case he's our starting PG so he should be in.

    man whenever delfino puts it on the floor i just expect the worse...someone needs to tell him they are giving him the baseline on purpose so they can jam him under the basket and force him to make bad plays
