    Rockets can't even get the ball to Dwight's hands. That's why Olajuwon MVP chants are delusional. McHale is not able to create a good offense around Dwgiht providing him if enough and quality touches. Honestly, if you have seen different offensive schemes around big dominant players, you can easily realize that Rockets' use of Dwight is ridiculous.

    Harden is playing good defense... Wade is just making tough shots

    Hope Harden doesn't get discouraged defensively. Wade's J is just on today.

    Not much else you can do on that one for Harden, I'll take that D all year.

    Ariza again? Jeebus. The man is in the passing lanes every second.

    Our offense is still ****! Defense much better though, but that's personnel more so than coaching!

    Yao never made All-NBA 1st team??

    God I hope not. Last thing we need is for him to do well defensively and people still score on him then cause him to think no point wasting energy guarding :(

    Howard's free throws look really good. No hitch. Just a smooth release. Hope for 65% at the line this year.

    Chemistry is improving. Offense has good flow to it, but I would like to see Howard get a few more touches in the post.

    I am loving watching Ariza and Beverley ball hawking and generally disrupting and challenging the opposing offense.

    That's on the Coaching Staff to take him into the film room and basically tell him this is what we want to see all year. Tell them that Harden's had those kind of games where it didn't matter who was guarding him, it was just Wade's day. If Harden continues to show defensive effort like that, this team could go a long ways.

    Offense looks better so far. Yes so far I will credit that to the loss of players who all seemed to needed to have the ball. We have players now that are fine without getting the ball, so I think our offense will be alright without our previous imaginary point forward model guy. Only time will tell I guess.
