    I thought they'd lose coming into tonight because of all the missing players, but what hurts is that the win was right there for the taking. And to execute poorly and get screwed by the refs on top of that is a killer. Especially with the Western Conference standings so close.

    Maybe a week from now we'll look back on this like the Phoenix loss as not that big a deal. Or at the end of the regular season, it could haunt the team as the game that cost them home court in the 2nd round(or even the 1st).

    Well that BS call on Nick Johnson on the corner 3 by DeRozan was pretty bad.

    Don't count on the Memphis keeping the 2 seed either. They been playing like garbage and don't have an easy schedule either.

    What's the deal @TOR? Haven't won there since 2007.

    It would be understandable if they were good, but they're not.



    Free Throws were our biggest downfall tonight. Or maybe there's witchcraft in Canada against the Rockets.

    Yea that is frustrating, we easily could have won this game. Things just didn't go our way tonight.

    That being said, we better get TJ and DMo back soon or we are in for some more losses.

    Who the same guy who block a 3 to save the Houston game vs the Wizard, or last year Harden? Which one are we talking again?

    Too many missed FTs and rebounds. Can't win them all but this game was there for the taking. 8 games to go need at least 5 to get the 2nd seed I believe.

    How about double Derozan on that last possession.

    It's going to take injuries for him to see the floor.

    Next season too, unless Dorsey and one of Jones/Dmo is gone.

    I think right now just based on that game he deserves to be our backup center. At least a shot at it, but with the games meaning more I can't knock McHale for being scared of his inexperience.

    I feel like so many players get career highs on us. Why can't we shut people down? Anyone have the stat on number of career highs opposing teams get against the rockets?

    Him not playing Capella inside 2min was a huge reason we lost. He comes down with some of those boards
