    I think Rudy has gotten on the Yao is tired bandwagon and just eliminated him from the offense. Why does Yao never post up anymore? All he does is try to set picks on offense, then go for rebounds. What a waste! If we still ran plays for him, I believe he would still score 10-15 points, or at least make some great passes. Keep him involved so he can break out of his shooting slump!

    Let's just admit it. Everyone should ISO and not look to pass if they ever get the ball. :mad:

    At least the Clippers find some success that way. Every man for himself.

    (Cat has an inferiority complex and will try all year to prove that he is an all-star. That Francis was chosen an all-star only validates within his (Francis') own mind the manner he plays. That these two are buddies only makes this worse)

    I have to TOTALY agree MOBELY is just a street baller. If Rudy is afraid to sit there arse then yes he needs to step down and get a more disciplined coach in. Maybe a riley type coach. (That really hurts to say):mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :

    Can you say "rudderless ship"???? Sure, I knew ya' could!!

    My God, I can't believe that Les Alexander can watch back to back to back pieces of **** like the last three games we have played and not call an IMMEDIATE press conference to announce that Whoopi Goldberg is our new head coach.'

    Please God, anybody but Rudy coaching!!! Anybody, please!!!

    And for all you K.T. haters out there...

    I told you we would end up missing his steady offense AND excellent defense AND his HUSTLE!!!!! C.D. and Rudy are getting exactly what they deserve for making such dumbass decisions!!:mad: :mad: :mad:

    Rudy has fallen and he can't get up!!

    The Mavs lost 3 in a row.......oh yes. They are hopeless.

    I THINK WE REALLY NEED GLEN RICE BACK TO PROVIDE LEADERSHIP. AND WE ALSO NEED EDDIE GRIFFIN BACK. They dominated us from one side. So many offensive rebounds..................................we needed Eddie and Glen to shoot. We really need Glen. We don't have any shooters besides Cuttino and Terence Morris.

    Well, the Rockets are now in the number 8 position for the playoffs. With the toughest part of the schedule coming up over the next few months, its all slipping away.........

    This team lives and dies byCat and Steve. If they shoot well, we win, if not, then we get many performances like tonight. Its been like this for a while and will continue for some while

    Yao won't get out of his slump if he doesn't play more than guys like Collier and Cato and if we don't get him the ball. Maybe cut his minutes a few minutes a game, but not this much!

    Relax, haters.

    We missed Griffin tonight. Mo T got in the early foul trouble and we were screwed from that point on.

    Why do you haters continue to leave out the facts?

    No team hoping to make the playoffs after three straight lottery seasons should play like this. This is insanely pathetic.

    For most of the season, the Rockets have only given half an effort. When Yao was playing well, they had enough talent to get away with it. But since Yao has hit the wall harder than any rookie in history, this team is showing its true colors.

    How can the Rockets coast like this against a good team, AT HOME? They are experts at playing down. The Rockets have lost a whopping six games to teams under .500. We're talking about the scum of the league, like Memphis, Atlanta, and the Clippers. That is atrocious for a team with so much talent, and such lofty goals. But so far this year, the Rockets have played well against good teams. What the f*** happened tonight?

    The Rockets deserved to lose, and they do NOT deserve to even be in the playoff race. This team has no heart, no guts. They used all that up in the Laker game (that seems like years ago). They should have been scrapping, hustling, and diving all over the court from the opening tip, but the Rockets just stood around and watched the Pistons trounce them.

    I am ashamed to be a fan right now, and that is the first time this year I have felt like that, but probably not the last.

    WE HAVE GIVEN YAO THE BALL. But he has not scored!!! That is another factor. In the beginning, he would score almost every time. He was perfect!!! Now he has been missing ALL of his shots. The only shots he gets are off passes when he's open. He has not been able to score!!!

    Cato with Yao...I like it. The only reason they did that was no Griffin.

    WE REALLY NEED EDDIE AND GLEN BACK.

    O yeah. Like Eddie would've been a big difference. He has been playing like an average role player this season. He might turn out to be an average role player.

    I'm done, and so are the Rockets playoff chances!!!

    There's no way we are going to suddenly find the right "balance" in time to win enough games to beat out any of the other top eight teams in the West...Rudy sucks SO BAD!!!

    I fear that we're now in the middle of a 3-10 slide that will effectively KILL any and all hopes we might have had of getting to the playoffs!!

    Who's going to run the play?

    If you didn't know already, Steve is playing with a cold.
    How can you expect to win a game with one player having a rediculous scoring game? You can't. Nobody in the league is that consistent. Nobody's gameplan can be to let so and so take all the shots, to do everything.
    Why don't we just name the team "Franchise".
    Yep Pistons 98, Franchise 50.
    If Steve felt he could carry this game, I'm sure he would have.

    I got an idea - let's sit Yao Ming out for the rest of the season to see if the Rockets make the playoff or not. If they don't, we know it's because of Yao Ming that we had a better record at this point and trade Cat or Steve; If they do, then we know Yao is not the difference so please trade Yao. ;) ;) ;)
