    A whole season of hard work has finally taken its toll, our team is not cursed, because we are not as talent as most of the team, we have to play harder to win, playing harder means you will be more likely to be injured.

    Haha, I can finally find peace and let's look forward to the next season, give more rest to our starters and develop...!! ;)

    I was being sarcastic and making a point to the Lowry should start crowd.

    No need for post-game analysis.

    Let's not waste precious bandwidth.

    I know, but I think there's a fair point to be made that AB does have certain advantages over Lowry even on the defensive end. He just doesn't maintain the same intensity level and he's not strong enough to stop physical point guards.

    Some guys don't want to give him credit for anything.

    What advantages are you talking about?

    The only thing I can think of, off the top of my head, is that he is faster, and can go for the steal quicker.

    the game against the other LA team could get real ugly but for some reason I think the came might actually be competitive.

    -Faster
    -Longer wingspan
    -Higher vertical jump
    -Fouls less (Brooks plays 36 minutes per game and only fouls 2.4 times, Lowry plays only 24 minutes per game and fouls 2.6 times)

    Lowry is definitely better against bigger, more physical point guards because he can't get pushed around as much... and his intensity level is better on the defensive end. But to deny that Brooks has any advantages is just ignorant IMO.

    I am not shocked at the loss. Why did the Rcokets call up Taylor and Harris and not use them in 2nd game of back to back games. We basically played six players, cause Taylor had less than 7 minutes.

    Really, I think its a pointless debate. The team is worn out mentally and physically. It really makes no difference who was garding Davis.

    6 back in the loss column of Portland and 7 back of San Antonio with 11 games to go and a weaker Western Conference record (likely tiebreaker) currently than both of those teams. Unfortunately, it's not happening.

    Realistically though, the Rockets can't drop much lower than 13th (Memphis could be 14). Going to be hard to drop below Chicago and/or New Orleans.

    Just play the young guys. Jermaine Taylor is not ready for significant PT, but he may get it.
