    Rockets ablity to run set plays is pretty low overral compare the elite teams. How many times do we see Rockets successfully run a set play after a timeout? Rarely, if any.

    How often do we see Lakers, Spurs, Pistons (well, the piston under Larry Brown) run a set play and scored? Quite often.

    Don't know why our coach has always been so weak on this.

    Definitely. It's called 'moving the ball', a little penetration and pull a defender away from Yao, but keep moving the ball, keep the defense jumping around, get em tired.

    I hope they do that more.
