    Everybody is saying that the guards are selfish and this and that. They really don't have much of a choice. It's a little bit of both, meaning that the other guys dont move and no screens and back-cuts are being executed. And whose to blame for that? Someone who doesn't have control of this young team. I dont see any offensive direction for this team unless Ming comes in there and creates double teams. Other than that, i dont see this outside in game working. I dont see any offensive set. Usually you have a power forward near the key on one side of the goal and the center on the other side of the goal and the 2 and the 3 or even the 1 use those barriers as an advantage by running around them and i dont even see that! And when you use them, and move the ball around, you get into a type of rythem and that is what the rockets are lacking. I have yet to see a type of rythem get established in any of their games. One more thing, I really don't see Francis and Mobley being teammates. I dont see this working. It's a talent clash. These guys are similar in their ways of scoring. Personally, i've talked to many people about this and they are saying the same thing. If we don't start winning and no progress is being made, then don't be surprised to see Mobley or anybody else on the trading block.

    Sorry to be negative, been a fan since 89'. Can't take losing anymore.
