Don't worry you guys.. Morey is purposely making us tank games so that we end up with the ideal playoff seed. I just know it.
yao had a good first half when he consistently got the ball. it's annoying how the second half is always the same; no ball in yao's hands and yao being absolutely gassed because of poor minute management.
Ron goes on oen one because he has no idea on hwo to make a entry pass with 3 guys sorrounding Yao. You can't just throw a pass into Yao when it is taking him 10-15 shot clokc seconds just to get position and bout time he does that shot clokc is running down and Yo uhave a Ron or aarron brooks forcing him a pass. We need a elite guard who can create for himself that way we won't TELEGRAPH our offense 24 seconds every trip down the floor.
Bottom line: the Rockets aren't a great team. They're a pretty good team though. This game should serve as a reality check--the Rox still have a ways to go.
Pathetic game. I had a feeling we were going to lose and I was going to accept this lost, but we played pathetic. Terrible free throw shooting and rebounding along with the fact that Brooks, Lowry, and Barry played like crap. To be honest, I think our backcourt inexperience with Wafer, Lowry, and Brooks will hurt us in the playoffs. I hope we can still get the 3rd seed. I would hate playing the Lakers in the second round, seeing as how much they owned us this season.
Well the good thing is the Rockets have T-Macs expiring contract to work with so we should be able to get a PG and a little more for that
Cant blame refs Rockets have no clue what they are doing on offense. This whole read and react offense is a bad experiment. You have low basketball IQ players trying to run a read and react type of offense. It seems like every man is for himself. Artest seems like hes trying to raise his value for free agency but in reality hes doing more damage than anything. Rick Adelman doesnt hold his players accountable. Rick doesnt know how to utilize Yao Ming.
I swear I was just going to post that ! We just need to accept as hard as it is that the Rockets are a good team just a player or two away from being great !!

We need a elite point guard to paly with Yao. Magic had kareem,Shaq had kobe. Yao can't get the basketball with guards that don't know how to make entry passes and can't create for themselves. We run a TELEGRAPH offense. We need a guard that can break the defense down triple threat style
For once this team had 4 or 5 PGs. I am wondering what RA is going to do if one of our two PGs is hurt? I do not blame the PGs too much, though. He has to realize that Brooks is a shooting first PG, so he should have called plays for Brooks so that he can outrun his man. Otherwise why leave Brooks on the court?
I really want to believe rox is tanking - I can't think of other reason. RA is definitely a good coach but todya's loss is squarely on him. Anyone who watched the game can easily tell rox lost because of AB amd a tired yao in the 4th. RA has done this several times - he puts AB back to close the game when he was being scored on at will. did he even get a good shot off today? he's in the game to score and if he can't score, take him out - at least rafer can defend but AB can't so if he can't score, he needs to go to the bench in a hurry.
Ron is selfish and never use the mind to play the basketball.....i am, rit???when Ron become team leader, we defendly fall down soon................He's s*cks/////
This team dosen't know how to punch other team in where they feel pain. Just look at how Lakers punish us with gasol when Yao is out. Our team just keep Yao running on the court with out giving him the ball and trying to let Yao block everyone in the paint. Yao gave sooo many block today, how many of them turned into any point in the other end? BS!
This team isnt bulid around Yao,wasnt bulid around Yao and will never bulid around him.all these games that we watched,too much 1 on 1. Teamball wins the game!!!!!!!!!!! RA just lost the control with the team????
Rick adelman doesn't have the personel that Yao needs as compliment to his game. Yao needs another elite player on his level. He needs a guy like kobe or D-will that can take all the attention off of him. Right now our whole game plan offensively is TELEGRPAH.
Can you blame him, just like KG when he was in Minny, How frustrating it is to make the playoffs every year and lose in the first round.
