    Rebounding would be up if he was the featured guy, and playing his natural position of center.

    Either way, 20-10 is a tall order, but who knows, the sky is the limit with his touch.

    The rockets are starting to hit their stride.

    Thought they played great in Chicago when they lost and it's carrying over.

    I wish we can find out what's up with Dwight, missing bunnies over and over. If he played how Plumlee did tonight, we would be 30+ wins by now.

    I want to agree, but I want to see how this team plays against the Thunder and Warriors. We have to win against the Warriors.

    If we can go 1-1 against those two teams, I'll be happy as long as each game wasn't the Rockets getting blown out.

    2-0, and I'll be so excited. Lol

    I have those games penciled in as loses. Harden is amazing but for those teams we need Dwight too and I just dont see it. Hopefully in a month or so he will get back to his healthy self or Im ready to pull the plug. We are wasting Harden's greatness if we can get some a second all-star to play with.

    I did say a while back that the rockets have played alot of western conference teams more so then most of the top tier teams. Rockets taking advantage of the east like the west has already. Its good to see that Houston is right up there considering how much grief we have gotten

    He has to be excellent, since DET continues to win without him.

    He has to be on best behavior if he wants the narrative about him to change.

    He has no touch around the rim.

    It's going to be a low percentage shot from Howard if it's not in point blank range.

    Another W and the key has been the bench contributing now on a nightly basis for a least 30 plus per game. Like how the chemistry is starting to gel once again. Still interested to see IF Morey pulls another trade on or before the trading deadline.

    Agreed! We need to knock down some of the big boys. If Dwight can rise up, between him and D-Mo, I like our chances.

    Dwight for
    Pau Gasol and fillers

    Move dmo to the 5
    Pau is a great guy to run the offense through with James on the bench. Less shots for Smith is a great thing.

    Only reason to not see what we can get for Dwight is if we get dragic in the next month .

    guys like plumlee, drummond and deandre jordan know their roles... they dont try and post up because that create a net negative for their teams....

    DMo is becoming a major force. Had just about given up on him. He is a "factor" now in every game. Glad for him.

    This dude was a straight up liability about 2 months ago. Absurd improvement.
