    That first quarter was fun. When the threes are falling, we can blow-by and hand it or alley to Dwight. Ah, Dwight... We should not post up Dwight, period. Certainly not beyond four feet from the basket. His O should be put-backs and PnRs. One thing I'd like to see: Dwight and D-Mo setting off-ball, low block PnRs for each other to create mismatches. Maybe that would get the ball to Dwight much closer to the rim.

    Did anyone notice in that first quarter... You know the one we scored the most points in any quarter we've done all season...

    Howard did not have 1 post up I can recall in the first 10 or 11 minutes.

    Is it really "embarrassing" though? Everyone on the planet knows that the Rockets are a far superior team that the Orlando Magic. When facing the Thunder, a potential playoff match up, we want to assess how we will match up to them in the playoffs. It was apparent that the Rockets coasted during the magic game and that's perfectly fine because we don't NEED every win we can get. We aren't that Rockets team that was battling for the 8th seed anymore. Our place in the playoffs is relatively certain. Do the assessment of how the team can take care of business against a playoff contender above all else in the regular season

    Not true, the team needs to win every game it can to have home court advantage, because that is pretty important.

    Losing to Orlando should not happen.

    Sometimes teams have bad games and lose. It happens. It's not the end of the freaking world.

    So, we should win every team with worse record than us, otherwise we are not contenders or we will lose home court advantage (and ... first round exit etc.). I don't care much about HCA, west conf. is crazy. Every team can win the other any given night. Every team have off nights.

    Dwight hugging the baseline when Harden/DMo (or Smoove) run the P&R is absolutely unstoppable. Pick your damn poison, should run it every time down the court as far as I'm concerned.

    Well, that is quite derogatory. I was addressing my frustrations toward people who basically "crap on" the team that they're a self-proclaimed fan of because the team isn't undefeated while averaging 20 point blow out leads.

    You, however, are a completely different problem in society. A problem that I will let the criminal justice system resolve.

    I was a bit perplexed by the eight man rotation for the Orlando game considering the circumstances. The guys showed up for this game and took care of business which was great to see.
