    Rockets gotta get the win so they can increase the value of that Pels pick!

    I consider this the first real test for Josh Smith. Has a couple of games under his belt a couple of practices and Davis is the kind of player we need him for.

    This is a seminal game for the Rockets.

    Agreed, hopefully this is why we signed him, not really for his offensive output vs. Memphis. D vs. Aldridge, Davis, Zbo, Dirk, etc. plus weakside help.

    Put DMo in post every time when Anderson on floor(his defence real plus minus -3.44 its 3rd worst among PF's) make it pay. We all know how much trouble he is on 3 point line..

    Put DMO in post even when guarded by AD...make him work harder on D so he become less efficinet on O...besides, DMo schooled him last time he just missed a cuople of gimmes...

    Hey I'm all for posting up D-Mo, but you might want to double check that recollection of the last HOU-NOLA game.

    D-Mo tried a sky hook over Brows, and Brows said "NOPE! I can still get that"
    I mean he went up HIGH and snatched it.

    Waste of your keystrokes. I posted the video box score in another thread where you can see every attempt from that game -- DMo got outright blocked on two attempts and didn't get anywhere near rimming in and out on about three more. That's called "schooling" your defender to some people, though. LOL. There's wearing your homer glasses, and then there's being legally blind.

    We'll see was up tonite Klutch, u got no faith in our boy,the last game was on a back to back coming from Denver,The Caribbean has got Dmo ' s back lol! Even if he doesn't score every time , putting pressure on those PF's that give us so much trouble is the key to us advancing in the playoffs right?! Do u also think that Blake or Ibaka could guard Dmo in the post if he got 15 touches or so?

    I do remember that nasty block Davis got on Dmo but Dmo ended up torching him on one play later on in the game. So Davis 4-1 against Dmo shot attempts.

    Smith better make himself useful and D up Davis or he's fired.

    Another team another beat down.

    Davis was kicking our rears last game so be nice to see what we do against him this time.
