    Why is Carlos Rogers, Steve Francis, Shandon Andrson, and Kelvin Cato sit the whole godamn fourth quarter while Bryce Drew, Matt bullard and Thomas Hamilton recieve important 4th quarter minutes. whats the point if you wait till theres only five minutes left in the game....to bring the former mentioned in. By bringing them with only five minutes to play he takes away any type of flow in the game that could be developed.

    What does Rudy do? This road trip will be very tough on the kids. How will they handle Boston, NJ, NY, and SA coming up as well as a rematch with POR?

    Can you say lottery.

    One thing is for sure, the Rockets organization has never been afraid to TANK an entire season to get better in the long haul.

    IE Hakeem, and Ralph etc.

    Guys what rudy is doing is letting anyone play how they want. I know he has given up now. He doesnt want to probably trade the players he has now for another player. Rockets are looking at the lottery right now.

    Its sad.. I cant even post .. Im just sitting here still wondering how this ever happend and why..

    Really sad night for rocket fans.

    So Rudy plays the top five for the full minutes and they still loss, or maybe win. In a couple games they loss because the top five legs are gone. I would read the same posters on here talking about how Rudy screwed up playing the top five too many minutes.

    It might be wonderful to be perfect with no mistakes, as some posters want to be, but in the real world people are not perfect and we let it go because we're not either.
