    This is kinda pathetic. What is our gameplan in the 4th quaters? It is easy, JACK UP 3s...

    It happend in New York, against Philly and tonight. It happens all the time.

    Dwon the stretch, when you wanna make sure you get the basket, you gotta find a way to stay agressive. Are we agressive? Not at all? We are standing and jackuing up 3s...

    It was only a 4pt Memphis lead at some point...But we blew it with jacking up 3s...And I don't care if they are open or not, if you are not hitting them, go to the basket...

    It is pathetic, as Worrell mentioned, our last 13 shots were all 3s (something like that). Great way to win close ballgames. It happens every single game.

    But if we want another 1st round exit. That is a great way to reach the goal...

    They had a good run in the 4th quarter until they decided to jack 3s only. I was hoping to have Barry/Wafer still in the game but that wasnt the case.

    Yao = Success

    Anyone else with their outside game (lack of drives) = FAILURE

    If they just kept going to Yao, he was going to score, its so simple.

    This is a disturbing trend. For whatever reasons, this team loves shooting 3s in the 4th. Like last night they almost choked away the lead by chucking 3s. RA needs to address this issue.

    Let's trade for Novak to make some threes in the 4th.

    It has always been that case with the Rockets. For several years now. Except this time we don't have that suffocating defense that bails us out. This is why I had high hopes with Artest, but he is just another volume shooter like McGrady.
