    His defense was good though(last play notwithstanding). The Lakers only scored 35 points in the 2nd half. What cost the Rockets was their horrible offensive execution including Dwight's inability to hit foul shots.

    Morey should just trade him, it would benefit everyone honestly.

    I feel pretty bad for the poor guy. He did really well this game and now hes gonna get the majority of the blame for this loss.

    Lin did something wrong, that was his assignment. Mistakes happen, not the end of the world.

    I know your trolling so just stop trying to rile up people. If you want to nitpick how about Harden giving up layups, Parsons in-bounding to Howard under 2 minutes or maybe Dwights missed free throws?

    Absolutely true.

    The Lakers came in and were ALL business from the opening tip. Rockets came out with little urgency (again) and ZERO defensive intensity (again).

    TT should be scrapped at this point.

    It's time to get back to last season's offensive pace. Defense and rebounding must lead to fast break points. Read and react doesn't work when the ball gets sticky.

    McHale must step up and hold some players accountable. And the ENTIRE TEAM needs to be held accountable.

    This is unacceptable.

    You guard the 3pt line, period, you have to not get caught in the noise.....

    Or the coach says...EVERYONE switch, and that includes Dwight.

    7 for 27 from 3.....that's why we lost.

    Every game feels forced, including the wins. Not only is TT not working on the offensive end...it's getting destroyed on the defensive end.

    We won't be right until Asik is traded. I'll rely on Morey to pick the right timing, but sooner than later is preferred.

    That's incorrect.

    If he immediately switches to the shooter (not his man or switch) then Gasol rolls to the hoop for an easy dunk.

    Don't blame it on that. Free throws: 33-52. Turnovers: 17. 3 pointers: 7-27. FGM: 37.7%

    Yeah, I agree. He stayed aggressive and took it to the hole and put some pressure on the Lakers D.

    Steve Kerr called it 100%. That was the play of the game. I knew that was going to come back to haunt us. How could Parsons not know better?! Why wasn't anyone else going for the ball?! :mad:

    We need to stop calling it Twin Towers. They don't deserve that label.

    It's because McHale only has one baseline inbound play and it almost always inbounds to the 5 first. There's a thread on it somewhere on this board

    That's McHale's fault, not the players
