    I agree that Martin and Lowry should start, but for other reasons. Having two poor perimeter defenders in the starting lineup is too much to overcome. That's not to say that Martin/Lowry is a great defensive perimeter, but it beats Martin/AB. Plus, having AB in the second unit plays more to his strengths as instant offense--something that the second unit can benefit from and having him pair up with Lee helps mask his defensive limitations. It's the end of games where the dilemmas arise--AB's the only one who can really create his own shot in a jam, so having him on the floor at the end of the game is key, but we might need to sit Martin. Only problem is that Lee doesn't seem to do well under pressure.

    Game ending situation is different. AB can finish if we need a score there just like Jason Terry finishing for Mavs.

    Not that this should be in the game thread, but I'd love seeing AB playing with Lee, Chase, and Hill in the second unit. Talk about speed on the court!

    Miller and hill have 5 of the team's 7 turnovers. Time to wake up..This team is going to come back and bit you in the ass if you let them hang around. Should have a 20 pt lead..

    If Martin had made his layups, he would be having the most efficient game ever.

    Rockets look like they are picking up the defensive pressure.
