    Doesn't make sense to me man. Play Nick and KJ... they are sparks, and save Ariza and Brewer. Everyone can be used, in a healthy way.

    When was the last time Ariza made a bucket of the dribble?

    earlier tonight he hit a three durng a fastbreak. i think he was leadinging the break at that time and just shot it at the top of the key because he was left wide open.

    Prigioni and Dorsey wouldn't see any minutes if Bev and DMo were healthy. We'd have a solid 9 man playoff rotation.

    Nope, the season series is 3-1 in favor of the spurs I believe.

    Great to see us comeback and pull out a win.
    Gotta focus on cutting Terry's minutes, and giving some time to Johnson.

    Just keep winning, the Rockets are still in the mix. Anything can happen.

    We don't have D-mo anymore, meaning we have no inside post up work to pass into anymore...

    So when our 3 point is stagnant, we really have no other option but to continue shooting 3'z...

    Team is too beat up and/or old to only go 8 deep. Rockets made same mistake last post season, with a healthier team. This is a different team, but not going into postseason at our best, need more energy from bench - young guys (Nick, Capela, KJ) could bring more D effort.

    Anything can happen, but what is likely to happen is the worst case scenario for the Rockets. It's always the worst case scenario. I'm a pretty optimistic Rockets fan, but year after year, Rockets fall into the worst possible position.

    so let's see, I predict:

    Rockets will have to face a Clippers team with a healthy Crawford, Reddick and Blake and no home court advantage.

    Pelicans will make the playoffs

    We all know it's going to happen. We pray that it won't, but it will.

    This is saying nothing. A losing streak can continue from regular season over to the playoffs.

    Don't worry about anything but your own games, Rockets.

    That's Clutch's wife right?

    Good to get the win after the previous 2 losses, especially as NOP needed the win to keep their final chances alive.
