    Well Brooks is shooting 40% and taking as much shots as Yao too. I'm pretty sure if Ron and Skip had some type of locker room problems, that was major reason he was traded.

    Especially when Alston knew how to run an offense and had a much better IQ than Alston. I also felt like Alston was underrated on this forum. Aaron Brooks is already dealing the same problems Alston went through as a Rocket.

    Not at this rate. I don't think they'll be able to stay ahead of Utah and New Orleans. I think they'll open up the 1st round on the road, which will pretty much guarantee another 1st round exit.

    Seem to me Morey tries to get rid of Artest during and up until the deadline but when he couldn't do it, Alston got traded instead.

    I'm really starting to dislike some of the members here on Clutchfans. No offense but some of you guys are way too damn negative. No team is perfect. When Rafer was here, alot of you guys wanted Brooks to start. Now that he's starting, ya'll want him out and have Lowry start. I mean these guys aren't superstars, everyone has flaws. Whether its about bashing Yao about being soft, or Ron Artest making bad decisions, or even Shane who can't shoot. No one ever looks at the positives. Especially with Tmac. Everyone saying "I hope he never wear a Rockets uniform ever again". That's just plain ridiculus. So he got hurt and played bad this year. He's not the only one who goes through injuries, ex. Gilbert Arenas, Andrew Bynum, Elton Brand. Cut the guy some damn slack and wait till you see what he can do when he comes back before you can talk.

    It's useless arguing Tracy's playoff stats. The T-Mac haters have tunnel vision.

    i notice him dribbling a little too much these past couple of games and trying to make things happen.. but that just stems from him wanting to help the team win...

    Yep. That was sort of a glaring comment there by Morey. I hope that is just lip service.
