    I think we're have a good system with great chemistry and talent. Only thing we need is more experience. Your thoughts? How would u grade them?

    To answer your question ... yes it certainly appears that the Rockets are getting very comfortable with this system. I'd grade overall B to a B+. Definitely subject to change ...

    The big X factor for me is will Rafer continue to be this comfortable and be this much of an asset in bigger regular season games and ultimately in the playoffs this time?

    Another one is, will the bench be able to continue to perform consistently like they have done numerous times in the regular season, and do so in the brutal playoffs?

    Like Tsunami intonated, we haven't done anything yet in the playoffs. Keyword YET. T-Mac knows the only way he will ever dispel all the crap opinions of him, some perhaps distorted, is he's going to have to demonstrate that he can lead this team in the playoffs and finally get a team to legitimately contend for an NBA title OR actually win one!

    If both X factors hold up under the blazing spotlight and brutal playoff intensity, then yeah WE CAN GO ALL THE WAY THIS YEAR!

    Stay tuned ...
