    You forgot Moochie! Moochie can score! But he doesn't draw the triple teams like Steve Francis...

    We have plenty of scorers!

    But oh well...

    The spiral down..........................not too far down. hopefully

    DOWN



    DOWN





    DOWN


    The sucking sound you hear is the life being sucked out the Rockets season!


    The pounding you hear is the footsteps of the Warriors (on a 3 game winning streak) only 3.5 games behind us and LAL only 4 games behind us.

    A 4 game loosing streak is exactly what this team has worked for. The lack of intelligence being displayed on the floor is staggering and disheartening for a fan.

    We are a worse team now than we were at the beginning of the season. The more other teams improve the their execution the less we can rely on our talent to win games for us. It's time to learn to execute if the Rockets have any hopes of avoiding the inevitable.

    IMO, Steve doesn't get triple-teamed. He goes hell bound into the paint and tries to score over three players when a stop and pop or pass would be more effective.


    Crash5179 & others - I haven't posted for awhile but share the sentiments. I saw this coming a long time back but have been too burned out on the topic to post. We'd have been better off to have played a team game and lost a close one to the Faker$. IMO, it's not a coincidence that the ball and player movement stopped after the Laker win.

    moomoo -
    Glen Rice. I probably should update the sig. (I think Maloney comes off the cap after this season).

    Aside from the lack of ball and player movement, this trade has been one of my long time pet peeves. (And yes, I know we owed Shandon one but I refuse to believe this was the best or only offer on the table).

    Had we just let shandon walk, we would have had some of that money. Norris is now a 4mill per yr 18 min a game back up. That spiral and those footsteps are indeed a coming from both the lakers and warriors. Also Minny got wally back and are starting to seperate themselves from the Rockets. The only good thing is that the Rockets are a 4 game winning streak from being #4 or 5 in the west.
