    22 game losing streak in October/November. Choke at FT line, was the defender on Manu when he tied the game, lost the ball to the Spurs in overtime, took and missed one of the potential game tying 3s.

    Lee and the rest of the team should have visited a curandera when they were down here in the RGV. They need a barrida or a sweeping of the bad from the team.

    Yes, we should blame Courtney Lee for the loss tonight. Not injuries to AB, K-Mart, and Yao sitting.

    The Rockets were fine with Ariza.

    Just being a little cheap cost us 4 wins out of 5 games.

    He missed 2 FT at the end of the game to put it away. He's a good player but he shouldn't be allowed to play with less than a minute to go

    courtney lee is an atletic wing and what not, but if darius miles, stromile swift, and corey maggettte has taught us anything, is that fereakish athletic players on your team dont always = wins.

    Dude chill out. Lee is a backup for Martin. You can't point the finger at a back up role player when the team is losing. Plus, this team is losing as a team, and its a bad coincidence Lee experienced this before.

    There are many reasons why the Rockets are losing. Some reasons are they just had bad luck. I mean losing to Lakers and Spurs aint bad because we gave them a hard fought game and those two teams are contenders. The Warriors happened to be on fired that one day we played them and the Hornets are steam rolling through, not only beating us but they defeated the Heat soon after.

    So don't blame on a new comer who just wants to play hard and win. I like Lee a lot on this team. He is a hard nose player and he plays hard night in and night out. He is incredibly talented and I rather have him over Ariza any day. (Ariza's doing well because he's playing with CHRIS PAUL BTW)

    So don't throw Lee under the bus. If you're going to throw someone under the bus, throw the whole entire team under the bus.
