    Why can't the Rockets just go out there and play? This is just a game of trying to put the ball in the basket. It feels like the Rockets are complicating it way too much.

    Tonight, these were the typical Rockets that we're used to seeing: a team playing down to the opponent.

    Just don't understand the strategy in the game end, why so happy to try those 3s? it doesn't make sense when you get closer to 4 points trim and about 3.5 mins to go you start jacking up 3s.
    Also the defense is really horrible and allows scrubs to shoot over 50%. Everyone who is standing on the other side of the court looks like all star, what a shame.
    Mr coach, this is on you.

    They all sucked, but Yao at least was respectable on offense. Defensively, no one was acceptable.

    Get used to it people, rox are no longer an elite defensive team. Heck, we are middle of the pack at best. Lakers play better D than we do, at least they don't lose to scrub teams.

    Complain about D all you want, but scoring 93 points, shooting <40% from the field and <30% 3s is not going to win you many games.

    Yes, our defense sucked tonight.

    Seems the only reason Deke got playing time was because everybody in the front court was in foul trouble AND Yao had to leave for a bit. Rick Adelman is freaking clueless.

    I was screaming at the tv when Reefer swung the ball to someone else when Yao had already established position, what the hell is wrong with you Reefer? Yao got us back within 4 points, did any of you see this?

    Damn the defence!
    Let's give T-mac more time. I hope he prove his shooting radian and take over the 4th quarter!

    Battier is not a top flite defensive specialist. His goofy arse trick of putting his hand in someones face doesnt work.

    On the bright side the Bulls are blowing out the Hornets.

    And then the coach set him out too long. He got cold. By the time T-mac got in it was feed Yao time, not T-mac time. Then when he did shoot the shot rimmed out.
