    Relax bub... Minny is a good team. They would have stolen 1-2 games from GSW too.

    Even 2K would automatically bench the cold guys.

    lol, what? Ryan Anderson has went from scapegoat to GOAT in one game.

    Edit: You know what, I'm going to agree with the OP. Rockets have come out to abysmal starts. Road Ryno can shoot and no one else can. Ryno also played some pretty good defense today (in the second half).

    Count me in. I would start Ryno. MDA shouldn't lock in these lineups.

    If it doesn't work bring in PJ. Rockets need to come out and start well. They haven't yet.

    This is how women act. They make don't think straight as soon as things don't go their way. Bunch of whiny b****es in this forum right now.

    I've amended my comments. I think Rockets should try it. PJ's defense to start the game hasn't been good enough where his place in the starting lineup is solidified.

    I'm in on Ryno starting on the road.

    not a b**** though.

    Don't think you are a b****, Im just calling out all the posters that can't handle losing. Nothing extremely out of the ordinary has happened. I don't consider Minni your normal 8th seed. They were a damn good team all season, just were injured at the wrong time.

    I'm alright with starting Ryno on the road, at home, it doesn't matter.

    They both sux and are very limited. Power forward is our weakest position.

    It's worth a try. Need better shooting out there. Tucker and Gordon playing too many minutes with the way they are shooting.

    I have grown to hate the people that wanted to get rid of Ryno and talk crap and now want him to start. SMH

    I'm a simple man. I just want MDA to call a damn timeout when things are going sideways. Don't need him changing the starting lineup...... keep it simple.

    What will really help right the Rockets ship: MDA should keep Tucker in the starting lineup and give Luc a lot of PT off the bench. When he's healthy, of course.

    Normally I wouldnt be for this, but Ariza has been subpar offensively, with a horrible game 1 and a bad game 2. Tonight he did not bring much to the table despite playing 34 minutes. Tucker's offense has always left much to be desired, which leaves CP3 and Harden as the only two that can score reliably among the starters.

    If you are concerned about Chris Paul's inconsistent offense, it is a good idea to start Ryan.

    Bench firepower: Gordon and Green.

    It's really important to have a good start for the game in the 1st quarter, first 3 games you can't tell we aren't having a good start, I remember throughout the season we would blow up from the start and we haven't had that luxury for a quite a while, so I wouldn't mind it.
