    we need deke and battier. i'm not worried about the offense. in time that will come with the new additions. but to give up over a 100 when we're shooting bad isn't gonna cut it. you could see how we could have used deke. also, battier would have helped guarding allen.

    not having deke costed us the game possibly. I can't help but look back to the end of 1st and beginning of 2nd quarter when yao was out and we got the beatdown smacked into us...

    I think we need the demoralizing Deke.

    He can take away a team's spirit with his defense.

    i hope the rockets organization realizes today we need a 7 footer! mutombo is perfect just sign his ass and trade rafer while hes still worth something IF hes worth something. bring in marbury and deke, cut marbury within a few weeks if it dosent work out at least we still have steve. just bring in mutombo and tell rafer to stop shooting and we will win

    We need Deke badly, or hell give Dorsey a go.

    What happened to Sura? We should talk him out of retirement

    Why do we need Marbury? We already have Francis sitting on the bench. Forget marbury

    I was thinking this most of the game. We really miss Shane. Not so much on offense, but he plays amazing team and transition D and is always taking charges in the lane.

    Les also needs to stop being cheap and sign Deke. We need a tall player that can rebound and block shots

    Defense Defense Defense. We missed them both and I agree with what was mentioned, the offense will come with time once they play more and more together, but not having size in the paint cost hurt us severely.

    Is that the reason we haven't signed him yet? I thought we were just going to wait for the 2nd half so he's fresh.

    Of course I wouldn't mind signing right now. Not just because he'd be useful for last night's game, but he's good for chemistry. Plus you can't have enough of Mutombo.
