    If you really believe the bold part you need a new team to follow. At least
    you got the red part right.

    Meh, our lack of size was really exploited today. 2nd night of a b2b, Yao is sick (LOL). Not too worried about this one.

    How is this team made for the playoffs when we have yet to get out of the 1st round with this core?

    I don't think any of the big 3 will be traded. Yao,isn't on the block. McGrady is immovable,Ron could be moved but part of the reason why another team with playoff hopes might not go for him, is because of his injuries.
    I don't see any of our role players being moved either with the possible exception of Luther Head,but I expect him to be here as well.
    The coaching staff has to make the best out of all the guys that we have on the squad.

    tmac for durant, artest for jeff green, alston for brandon roy, and landry for aldridge. Oh and mutombo for oden as backup to yao. This rockets will be the most exciting and athletic team in nba

    Trade T-Mac for players who could fit in very well with Coach RA's motion offense. Get rid of the ball stopper, and everything will be much better for the team's offense as a whole.

    The only reason I see the Rockets should keep T-Mac would be if they plan to let RA go and bring back JVG to be the head coach again.

    rockets did trade for a "big 3" and artest is pretty much freebie too except this big 3 doesn't feel right and work like the big three of the other 2 good teams...

    Two weeks ago fans watched the game should be clear, the rocket is a passion for dynamic team, fluent in attack, tenacious defense and full of combat effectiveness.


    Everyone to change, why should not he?

    Everyone to make every effort to the defense, why should not he?

    Everyone is fighting to the last minute, why should not he?


    We look forward to the changes in him rather than recovery,

    Yes, because certainly good teams would never lose at home to the Bobcats (like the Lakers did) or even on the road to the Bobcats (like the Celtics did), or especially not to the Wizards under ANY circumstance (like the Cavs did).

    Tell me something? Where are these "good teams" you speak of?

    every good team will lose to a bad team once in a while.
    but the rockets have lost atleast 10 games where they could've won

    When we got Artest I believed like many that this would be our time but injuries put us behind the 8ball. In my heart i feel that we can still make a run, or maybe that is just hoping. In reality if you look at our team Artest and T-Mac is killing us. When they are on the court together we have two guys that just stand around and wait for the ball to come to them. Then once they get the ball they jack up a long shot or take a hard shot with someone in their face. That is why our offence runs better with Brooks, Wafer, Barry and even Head "when he have played" because those guys move without the ball and that creates easier shots for everyone on the court. The bench player look and run the offense more like the old Sacramento team than our so-called stars.

    Now to our defense. We went from the top 3 the past couple of years to middle of the pack. And with our offense not clicking we are doomed for disaster with our defense sucking. I thought Artest woukld really help in that department but his ankle injury has limited his movement. He normally harps his man the whole game but his ankle has only let him from time to time. And for T-Mac which he is a better defender than he gets credit for, knee is limiting his mobilty. But with that said defense is nothing more than hustle. If you know your defense is not up to par then you have to deny your man the ball at all cost, then when he gets it you make sure you are up in his mug.

    We get ran on too much because the guys that are getting the minutes just don't or can't get back. I feel we will be able to compete and beat anyone in the playoffs because the game slows down and that should favor us in any series. Lets just hope we make the playoffs!!!
