    Whatever happened to Rockets being a great defensive team with D12's acquisition?

    Could have easily avoided this loss by closing it out and fouling at the end before anderson hit that three...

    Mchale is so incompetent. I honestly think even D'Antoni would be better for this team.

    Coach really needs go deeper than 8 guys. The reason why we can't close out games is because our guys are gassed.

    Yup, either they will figure out to defend on the perimeter and not let clowns beat them or Morey will bring in players that can do EASY things like fight through picks, communicate, switch and not turn the ball over.

    This game hurts, and so will the loss tomorrow night but so what.

    McHale is just clueless, I don't know what to say, Morey looks like he doesn't care about the coaching. Just get rid of McHale, I would do a better job than him for real. We ain't going nowhere with him it's obvious.

    I blame the coaches. They need to watch the Heat to learn how to play team defense. P&R defense needs to be a team thing. We can't expect our guards to just fight through screens all night. The bigs need to hedge.

    We're a mess. We need to get Asik traded and solidify the roster.

    McHale is leading us to nowhere. We can't get out of 1st round with this type of strategies. McHale has no plays.

    All we had to do was foul - it was that simple.

    Wow, crazy game.

    Only so much they can do when nearly the entire team is ice cold.

    Lin definitely had too many TO's, but some of those were definitely uncalled fouls. Still too many TO's. Not completely surprising. McHale was pretty bad at managing his minutes. You could tell he was completely gassed by the end.

    Parson's *really* needs to find his shot. Garcia and Casspi were bricking hard. Definitely not good. Even Beverley was bricking like crazy.

    Lin - 9/15 from 3
    Parsons - 1/5 from 3
    Beverley - 1/5 from 3
    Garcia - 0/4 from 3
    Casspi - 2/6 from 3
    Brooks - 0/1 from 3
    TJones - 2/4 from 3

    Take out Lin and the team shot 23% from 3 (6/26) instead of 36%.

    Real hard to win when your offense is so heavily predicated on 3 point offense.

    Another game tomorrow I guess.
