    Detroit is the type of team that doesn't lay down, but the Rockets have responded to recent losses by winning the next one.

    how is our record on the second night of b2b?

    If anyone was gonna make a statement, it should have happened last night. This could be a blowout win but it wouldn't be impressive.

    Listed as day-today, but I doubt today. RT @browns_fan32: @jonathan_feigen How long till we get Lin back, that bench is really missing him

    Should be fun Detroit has hella size up front but we should be able to outrun them but Smith & Drummond can run the floor like gazelles out there

    Go Rockets definitely need to pick up a W on this 2 game mini road trip

    Not good news, Brooks have not been cutting it lately. But I'd rather have him back fully healed than have him back 60%.

    Harden should act like this is his debut game and go off

    6-1 with wins against the Grizzles, Jazz, Trailblazers, Knicks, Suprs, and Golden State. The one loss was against the Mavs.

    The only good thing is that the starters only played 30 minutes yesterday so they should be able to play hard today.

    They have to win but even if they do it's not going to be enough to erase the humiliation of last night. But a win here then Dallas at home will build confidence for the spurs game and a win there would restore a lot of faith.

    Rebound win. Plus, Harden makes up for his lackadaisical performance against Indy.

    Could really use a 7 foot defensive stalwart out there to contain Detroit's front court.

    I don't think Detroit's frontcourt would be a big problem, except TJ is lazy as heck about boxing out and they'll eat us alive on the offensive boards.

    a win is a win

    If achieved by playing extreme small ball I'll take it
