Yes, knee jerk time. We just lost another game the same way we’ve lost all of them. Have the Rockets lost heart? What do you think? We’re losing easy lottery team games and pissing games away the same way every time. I didn’t want to say this but where is all the heart our beloved guys are know for? Has it become so clear to them that they can’t do playoff damage they’ve stopped playing free and loose and the way we like to see them go to it? I think it has. They just don’t have what it takes to be a fast break team like they were said to be this year. I am fully disappointed by the Rockets and what they were hyped up to be. I pity the season ticket holders who have wasted their money.
Why does everyone assume we've been playing poorly lately because we're plain bad? Does anyone not realize that we're missing two integral pieces in Lowry and Ariza this season? Not only does Lowry provide ridiculous energy off the bench, but he also gives Brooks a chance to rest, something many of us take for granted. And Ariza plays the passing lanes so well that opposing teams are afraid to even make some of the passes you see being thrown around these past few games.
Dunno, just doesn't seem the same. Maybe without Lowry out there the effort (heart, whatever it is called) is at an all time low? Also Landry gone... Whatever it is, something is different.
