    Why the F is Canaan in the doghouse?

    The guy was playing really well

    Another bonehead McHale decision but it's already well known that McHale is a liability

    Beverley getting frustrated. Walked right pass McHale when he was trying to gather everyone together.

    Why must they post up Howard? Results in turnovers, misses, and miss free throws.

    No team plays their best every game. Not even remotely uncommon for teams to go in a mini funk

    I love how those first 6 games where we played great ball is the anomaly and the last 4 is the reality.

    Why is it so easy for fans to believe the bad play is what we shouLd expect and the good play isn't?

    Canaan must have kicked McHale's dog.

    Garcia plays HORRIBLE team defense, his man was WIDE open.

    He should NEVER get minutes over Canaan with how well he was playing, this is truly baffling.

    Canaan was hitting open shots, playing great defense, and moving the ball.

    No coach, no plays, nothing practiced, nothing new

    Rockets' record is more of a representation of their strength of schedule rather than their actual play.

    Teams have figured out that they need to close out on him. He's not getting open looks anymore like he was earlier in the year. Which is fine if you're driving to the hoop, drawing the defenders, and kicking out to an open Ariza, but we don't have much of that right now. Other than Harden, who can create his own shot on this team? Canaan's ok at it, but he's glued to the bench now. We need one more guy who can do that. Otherwise, there's too much pressure on Harden to do it all.

    It'd be nice if Memphis would miss, but this was an expected schedule loss.

    I do wish we looked better, though.
