Don't know why but the Rockets can't get over the hump and put together a long winning streak. I believe the longest streak this year has been 7 games. I hope the team does not go on another 7 game losing streak. Need to win the next one on the road agains the Magic.
"Jeremy, we’re trying to win.” Morey should have traded the guy. Not a fit here and never will be, not to mention Lin is being wasted here.
Every single "brother" had a a +/- tonight The only players who were building a + scoring deferential were Motie, Asik, Parsons, and Lin. So I guess what we really need is "better brothers".
The Rockets, always a disappointment come the last stretch of the season! Here we go losing streak! Doesn't matter who we play, we always beat ourselves!
Just stop. I know you are a fan of Lin, but statements like this have no basis in fact and only make you look a simpleton.
LOL, this is another example of Mchale being out coached again. He played too much Harden ISO == TOs --> easy baskets for Bucks. Just like I said, it's another losing streak when Mchale features too much Harden to the other team. Harden plays his best game when he plays within the flow of the game, not forces it. The results speaks for itself. The gun & run can only carry you that far.:grin:
It wasn't James that didn't cover Dunlevey, it's stupid Parsons. You should never leave Dunlevey open...that ****er all he does is shoot. James did commit a stupid foul while putting someone at the end to give them 3pts. And James failing to pass on a 2 on 1 break leaving him getting blocked. It's stupid decision like these that cost us the game. But done of these would matter if it wasn't for McFail subbing in different lineups while the starters playing well up by 18pts. When you're playing well...why the hell not just leaving them out there for god sake...there is still 4 or 5 mins in the 1st quarter. Usually u you don't sub until 2mins left in the 1st.
Harden and Parsons were the Rockets best performers tonight. The agenda behind these criticisms, posts are thinly veiled.
Actually it started when D-Mo came out. D-Mo was setting screens relentlessly to start offensive possessions while he was in there. Once D-Mo was out the screens stopped coming, and Lin's effectiveness dropped through the floor with along with Harden's. This game was lost on McHale's over-reaction taking D-Mo out because the Bucks made a few long jumpers in a row with hands in their faces. Seriously McHale, when you get the other team to shoot long jumpers with hands in their faces, you do not make an adjustment just because they are making extremely tough shots, you say good job and let them keep shooting the extremely tough shots. The percentages will eventually catch up with them.
