    Problem with that is, AB and all the other players pick games to play well and that gives all of us a false hope here. There is no consistent player on this team and it's always a toss up on who will show.

    I'm getting sick of Adelman's rotation. We needed this one tonight. Who cares about tomorrow night?

    Martin doesn't reenter until like the four minute mark. Really? I mean the guy had 30 through 3. I would be pissed off if I was Martin.

    That I agree with, Adelman's rotations based on who's playing well are really getting annoying. I would hate to have to play for him, as a player you would like to have a mindset of how much and when you would be playing.

    I dont think there is a way to explain why Aldeamn left the bench out there till so late. No explanation to why Lowry, martin and co return ot the game with 3 mins left? How they were they going to squash the Memphis momentum with just 3 mins left.

    It was so clear JJ was having a huge impact on the defensive end when he got the chances. There is no explanation for why Aldeman would play someone inferior over somone superior.

    All the so called "depth" is totally wasted by Aldeman. He has no clue how to use it.

    The only explanation I have for all my "no explanations" is we are in tank mode. Why is is Aldeman leaving bad players out there more than clearly better players? And its not like the 1st time this has happenned.

    i was literally yelling at the screen "why the hell is brooks still in!!" i would have loved to have seats behind the rockets bench..would have probably been thrown out of the arena for cursing adelman out though... :mad:

    Well I watch so we can hopefully stay close in the standings. This season isn't a lost cause if we can land Melo. That's the only hope I have.

    What is the point of getting better players when Aldeman will just keep them on the bench?

    Are you talking about Jeffries? He only played 22 seconds, but I did see him make a good inbounds pass to end the first half. I would have liked to have seen him play against Randolph in the 4th quarter.

    false hopes, indeed. I've been depressed about this team's inconsistencies over and over.

    but, think of it this way. what if aaron brooks became a 22 point scorer? then instead of 11th in the western conference, we would be something like 8th or 9th. Is that any better?

    If anything, thats really that much worse. brooks playing poorly will only mean his contract will be easier to swallow.

    I was taking about the period when Hayes was injured and JJ got some time. In that period JJ clearly demonstrated how much better he is than Hill on defense.
