It's time to put Novak in the game. We need to bust that collapsing defense of the Bobcats.

Agreed... I don't like how Novak was pulled so quickly after just 1 shot... he wasn't doing too terribly on defense...we need shooters that can make the ball and unfortunately, head is not one of them tonight.

Yeah, TMAC went to the rack a few times when we took our early lead. Since then, almost nobody has tried to take it inside. No post ups, no driving, just settling for outside jumpers. And even when we're open, we're not hitting them. Our movement without the ball has been almost non-existent.

And yeah, if Luther isn't hitting his shots, he's useless.

completely agree.

tmac was attacking the basket via dribble and backdoor cuts. the rockets built a slight lead.

since then it's been all jumpers. no cuts, drives, picks, or any sort of ball movement whatsoever.

We need yao for FT shooting and low post moves.We have zip so when our shots are not falling we are just going to struggle.I have been stating this for the longest time even when we were hot.our shooting won't stay hot for ever.

Well even if we lost (which I don't we will do)

NH > Lakers
Detriot > Spurs

At this moment

We'll be alright...

All we have to stop Okafor. Our shooting will bounce back in the 2nd half - just have some faith.

Look on the brightside, at least we're not playing the lakers right now because we would be down by at least 15 at this point.

Can you seriously be quite?

To counter what you said i think we should trade slow yao for a AMAZING JOSH SMITH. TRADE YAO MING FOR JOSH "SUPERMAN" SMITH

Alston, Tmac, Battier, Head and Deke should start in the third. Tmac should drive and no way should head be allowed to handle the ball. we don't need defense as much as we need Offense at the moment

Battier needs to pick his game up in second half.

He didn't contribute much on offense and Richardson killed him too.

Im worried, we need Scola to do something on the offensive end, and Rafer needs to drive in more. We are in trouble if they dont start doing those things

It is so laughable that when rockets are winning, some would say that the team is better without Yao, whereas when are losing, some would say Yao is so important.

Fans can just be so childish sometimes.

well that worked as well as possible. carroll drops a wide open 3 pass and gives us a steal and then we turn a brick into a layup. of course we miss the free throw b/c that's us.

LOL on the non charge call on Scola. Stern has sent word to the refs.
