    Seriously...

    Between Dragic, Patterson, Lee and Budinger, the Rockets have 4 guys that could be spark for a slow start in any game. Good thing about it? Even if 3 of the 4 struggle, one of them will no doubt bring something. The odds of all 4 having a bad night are kind of slim.

    In the event that they DO indeed struggle, that's probably when you'll see that big output from the starters.

    Dragic, Lee and Patt could start for some teams in this league. One heck of a bench with great chemistry

    God, it was painful watching Yao and T-Mac dominating and the bench score 0 points and coughing up the lead.

    The problems is, if 2 or three starters aren't bringing it consistently, then it cancels out the benefit of being able to go 8 to 9 players in.

    Scola's D is worse than ever. Dalembert is averaging like 3 rebounds this month. And martin hasn't cracked 10 pts in 4 games.
