    Then why give him the ball after they secure the rebound? Let someone else bring it down court. This is BTW another reason Canaan needs to get some minutes. That dude can handle the ball and is quick. He'd get us into our offense within 3 or 4 seconds instead of 6 or 7.

    Harden should take 50% of our shots.

    Since the season began, we have been winning despite a mediocre bench because of Harden's MVP numbers.

    Now that Harden is slowed down maybe by injuries, maybe by the starting 5 playing bad, we see the real state of the Rockets. Can the coaches think strategically by trying something radically different?

    Will we finally see a tweaked rotation in the second half? These lineups just don't click, starters or subs. Would love to see something different

    This is about pride right now. Disappointed in that first half. No fire from anyone to take it to the next level. It's unfortunate. They have enough talent for the big prize. They can't do it unless they go out and make it happen RIGHT NOW. - Calvin

    McHale should trust our bench, the guys who played well during our winning run--play Canaan and Papa. The team needs a different look.

    Man, McHale, this is like pulling teeth. Don't just sit there; try something else!

    3-3 from the field 7 points 6 rebounds 1 block, he has had a pretty good season, i don't know what you expect from the guy really

    he also changes shots, protects the rim

    this team would be A Lot worse without him

    8-4 without him and 13-5 with him

    In all honesty, I think we are just making excuses for how bad Smith has been thus far.
