    He would start. But I rather have Dragic than Lowry next to Harden.

    True. I recall this.

    I also recall issues between Kyle and McHale.

    Either way, he is still better than any PG we currently have.

    I agree with you on that one. I really like Dragic's game.

    If the Rockets don't win tonight, I am going to have to stop watching Houston sports for awhile; too much losing. It is getting depressing. For the last several days, every team with Houston on their jersey has lost.

    Yep, sometimes it's almost as simply as that. Why the coaching staff (and especially Dwight's preference for the low post) is making this so hard is frustrating to watch.

    Lowry has been a bit underwhelming in Toronto though. Last year there was the whole starting issue with Calderon (kind of like our situation right now), and he's been inconsistent this year. Doesn't help that he's playing with Gay and Derozan.

    Dang, get on the phone and let Dwight know there's no room for the guards to attack with TT. He doesn't get to watch the game from your perspective, so he doesn't know the truth like you do. And tell him how to be happy.

    Ah heck, just rest some of them (those with Flu AND Injuries) and give them time to recover.

    That would be Harden, Parsons and either Garcia or Casspi.

    We should still have enough to beat the Raptors, but we really can't afford for multiple starter caliber players to be sick or injured for prolonged periods. Then once they recover a bit, rest the others on the roster against a weak team.

    That's the whole point. I see white-flag raising, soft as a pillow "fans" among us. Whatever happened to toughen it up?

    Am I the only one thinking that this game will be tough? These guys are young and athletic. Rockets better be focused.

    All I can say is that if Houston can't beat the next 6 teams, this team has big issues....and may be a playoff caliber team but that's it.
