    KJ Martin's freakish athleticism overcomes his 6'7" wingspan. We need his defense.

    Cousins actually has been a sneaky good defender especially compared to Wood. And an elite rebounder. Just his offense is completely busted.

    No, Cousins is not the better player. Just he shows how good defense with adequate offense can affect things

    This guy needs a guaranteed contract asap. Waive Exum.

    Wood just needs to put on weight and he’ll be able to fill up the paint better. Silas needs to take him to Timmy Chans or Frenchys

    The Rockets deserve a lot of credit for tonight. They could have folded going into this game but they didn’t. All the players and coaches deserve praise

    Everyone knows they are streaky. It's important to note that the morale of the team is increasing.

    I feel like there is great potential for this team, but we could also lose a lot of games. Not sure which path we will end up going down. I do feel though if everyone buys into team-ball and there is intelligence in the offensive scheme we could make some noise.

    Mark Henry’s body may belong to James Harden, but his music belongs to Boogie Cousins:

    I think it is fun because I have no expectations for this team other than to play reasonably hard and grow... so if we win 10 in a row or lose 10 in a row, I am fine with it... mostly like watching the young players and Silas and Weaver work on what they want to do.

    Cousins and Wall always will have chemistry, but Eric Gordon needs to play with Cousins too! @ApacheWarrior

    i have a feeling that this was Bmac's last chance to show Silas he can be reliable.

    sucks but i rate gerald green higher than Ben .

    Team looks 100% better with Wall’s leadership.

    He was awful tonight. Speaking of awful, so was Harden....lol. He had 12 points in 38 minutes and missed all his 3's.

    Someone is going to be moved...... Porter and House supposedly will be available soon and Mason will either be extended a contract or converted.
