This is what the Rockets look like when they had chemistry.

Lin was a poor fit, basketball-wise...at least with our scheme. Played too many minutes alongside Harden.

Parsons on the other hand really really helped with the ball movement. Ariza has him on defense and contract pricing, but Parsons' ball handling, decision making, and penetration/finishing, is something we noticeably, sorely miss. He seems to get along with a variety of personalities...(Howard, Harden, Lin) although Rockets' fans seem to dislike the Florida-bred Parsons' lack of hometown loyalty to his first employer.

 

they were bad. but our defense that year was better than our defense now..

 

yet our defense was better with that team and b/c the current roster defensively is oozing with high IQ right

 

Basically you are saying Chemistry is DMO.

 

love omer and that was a fun team to root for, but they werent that good

 

I wonder why...

 

Less talented team, but more watchable. They played like a team to make up for their skill deficit.

 

This...that old team was surely a fun team to watch and root for, but nowhere as good as the current team

 

That was the team when it was young and humble

 

This team plays like they think they done won somethin, but they ain't won nothing y'all.

 

Interesting comment when this is actually much more applicable to last year's team than that year's team.

 

No... This is what the Rockets look like when they have chemistry:

Dmo is the missing piece. He takes pressure off Harden and he can really pass. I think we took for granted guys like Papa and Dmo who could really pass the ball well. Papa just wasn't that good of a shooter.

 

Adelman's system is a beauty to watch.

 

Chemistry is not only how good players' abilities fit on the court. It's also the mental aspect.
