Rockets choked in the 4th.....no offense and no defense. No Ming in 4th, no passing like the 1st quarter, and it equals to no win....

If that was the way the play was called, that was a terrible move on Rudy's part. It should have been Steve taking it inside.

Bad coaching near the end of game. MoT should be there instead of Rice or KT or EG.

Rudy should'be put Yao in. As posted above, Yao would've caused a double team somewhere and leave somebody open for a shot or a cut to the lane. Yao was playing pretty damn good too.

Yaup....

The last play was a good one. We had an option for Francis driving or the 3.

The Suns won by default: we missed a wide open 3-pointer.

What's with this freaking breakdown against the suns, do we need Cato that badly? Oh man, this is so crap, Im still bummed, why no Ming, I understand all the arguments about bring him along slowly so he doesn't hurt the team but I say he'd help the team tonight, we needed him, im gonna start a new thread

Reason for losing: NO PASSING AND NO SET PLAYS IN THE 4TH QUARTER!!! NO INTERIOR DEFENSE!!

THOSE ARE YOUR ANSWERS!

Rudy should have called a timeout when they regained the ball with 48 secs left. They went down the court not knowing what to do and gave it up on the shot clock. TO #17!

What game are you watching, ming hit a few dunks but the suns took the ball right to the basket when Ming was in the game. Usually scoring or drawing a foul. Thats why Rudy pulled ming he has to learn how to change shots, hes not doing that YET.

Crap! I thought Eddie was going to nail it! Oh well. Eddie better start doing something, because Mo looked a lot better tonight.

And missing those two free throws at the end was very un-Mobley like. Plus, he had the ridiculous turnover towards the end of the game. Damn, that was one frustrating loss!!!

I get the impression that the last play was designed for Francis but when he saw he couldn't penetrate he kicked it out to Eddie but he didn't have his legs positioned well for the last shot.
Too many isolations tonight and lack of ball movement did us in. Our rebounding and defense just wasn't there. Mobley should have made those free throws but the team blew it tonight.
