    Of course you need it. An open midrange shot is automatic. It's just a couple of idiot morey worshippers on here that are in denial.

    He was outstanding on defense but he can't catch.

    Honestly the one bench player the Rockets could have used was Greg Smith.

    "Dadakota-ism"

    Player shoots highest FG% of all Rocket's players in game.... declares he needs to be traded for lack of offense, in post game thread.

    why do you keep saying this game didn't matter? we're 49-24. we got a b2b @ tor, and a game v. okc we can easily lose. if portland beats the lakers today, they'd have the same amount of wins as us...

    i hope the team doesn't have that mindset. that's a loser mentality.

    Seriously. You can't even have a real honest conversation anymore every comment is someone trying to out-troll a troll.

    Three of our starters are out and our bench has been pretty much trash all season. What did you guys expect? We aren't the well oiled Spurs, we are the Rockets. Maybe everyone will give up the 3rd star bull**** and we can sign some solid role players in the offseason. I would hate to waste a year of Howard/Harden chasing this 3 star BS. Tired of the asset talk, all the flexibility talk, etc. Sick and tired of it.

    Please Morey, get us some solid role players. No more of this, hopefully we find some gems in the rough like Daniels, Covington, Casspi, etc. I been singing this tune for a while now so this is not me knee jerking. Is more of me realizing that we don't have enough talent to compete for a championship. Lin is inconsistent and neither Casspi/Hamilton/Garcia are giving us anything. I love our starting 5, I feel that Jones will be more consistent against better competition as he continues to grow and I feel Beverley is a good enough starter for the time being unless we luck into someone better.

    I like Canaan, but he is just a rookie and I have no hopes for him this year.

    Why we lost

    Lin should have been on dwill the whole game

    Parsons should have been on jj the whole game

    Casspi, caanon and Hamilton avg. 20 min and were 6-26

    It's not just money. He happens to be immensely talented and considered a legend in the rap game.

    Money matters but clout, status, and recognition is probably equally as important.

    Missed the game. Thought I'd check the game thread in the GARM to see what I missed. That was a mistake.

    Big Mistake for McHale putting a SF to guard a PG in the last 2 games.

    Exactly. Joe Johnson is their 4th quarter goto guy, so you decide to put your worse defensive player on him?

    Rockets still need to continue to win or it could be another classic rocket meltdown to end the season.
