    Obviously our boys need to get better. But we are a young team and this is great experience. Also, a power forward woud be nice. And more athleticism off the bench.
    Think lin will eventually become a very good shooter. But he needs to put serious work on his ball handling. It's really holding him back right now. Constantly losing control of the ball under pressure.

    Hate to see Rox close out season getting their asses handed to them but they will be hard pressed to win one game I'm afraid.

    Rockets are straight up getting destroyed. We put ourselves in this position by choking away the last two games though.

    Parsons is playing fine. We just have no offensive movement or sets. Partly because we have no post game.

    It was a 3-1 fast break. What did you expect?

    He's a mediocre point guard but you don't have to HATE him.

    If Harden wasn't out there rockets would be getting beat 80 to 20

    Key is to steal 1 game out of these 2. Still got a shot at that. Wishful thinking, obviously, but still true.

    Yep...this is what happens also when you play Phoenix and give the best seeding chance away. Inexcusable....there is no way to overemphasize how choking that game was a killer. Paying heavily now.

    You wouldn't know basketball if it punched you in the face.

    I ope our fans show up strong in TC. We need to show some hardcore support if we are going to get a win.

    Houston needs to show more love for Rockets :( Look at OKC.
