    Only 3 teams have more wins than the Rockets against teams above .500

    Exactly. It was the turnovers that killed the Rockets, plus the one huge run they gave to the Mavs (because of those turnovers).

    At this point, you can start either Ariza or Beverley but not both. Too many missed shots and boneheaded plays.

    Scott Hall and Kevin Nash aren't getting it done. We need Hogan.

    Dallas got smoked at OKC in their first game back. Portland is getting killed in Utah tonight in their first game back. Atlanta got demolished by the Raptors at home in their first game back. Washington get absolutely buried by the Cavs at home in their first game back.

    So it's not like the Rockets don't have some company here. But they better bounce back tomorrow night. This 5-game homestand is critical. They need to go 4-1 or better.

    This is just a night of way too many undisciplined decisions.

    Bad shots, bad defensive plays, bad turnovers.

    We make a run and our own coach calls a freaking timeout. And then out of that timeout, he calls a play for freaking Trevor Ariza. It completely knocks off our momentum.

    We STILL cut it down for 5, Dallas makes a shot and then Ariza jacks up a horrible shot for no reason.

    I mean it looks like this team just doesn't understand how to win.

    lol post of the year, you can only make trades if the other team is willing to give up the player you want. Morey got Harden didn't he ? Morey traded to get the assets to get Harden didn't he ?

    to be honest the loss of Parsons was pretty key for them.

    Here's my guess for McHale's post game comments:

    We had stretches where we were flat. We just didn't have any juice.

    We got to work harder.

    The ball got sticky at times. We got to keep the ball moving.

    We've got to play harder.

    Don't forget January. He's been awful for over a month now. Same with Terry. Good God, we need a PG in the worst way. Morey better have no other higher priority this offseason.

    Reminds me a lot of when Rafer Alston was traded to the Magic to finish of his career.
