    Relax guys.

    Lots of basketball to play, and this is a YOUNG team. They're going to be inconsistent. There's going to be bad quarters, halves and games. It's not a blowout, and really it doesn't take alot of buckets to get back to a respectable percentage for most of the starters.

    Acting like every bucket in the 1st half is some sort of definitive decree on any of these guys is ridiculously knee jerk.

    Another blowout loss to the Lakers ? It seems like struggling teams like the Lakers and the Trail Blazers are going to go 2-0 against us.

    They definitely are, but it also helps that the Lakers bench is horrible. Both benches are keeping us in the game.

    They're not supposed to. Only Lin and Harden to an extent are responsible for setting up players, getting them good shots, setting tempo and getting them in the flow. And both have been trash at it so far this game.

    Lin's fouls were from trying to do too much. The Rox should save him 'til the 4th quarter.

    yes nice logic... lets just apply that to this one game...

    you want to see the real Jeremy Lin...

    then he needs to be attacking the basket... splitting doubles...

    standing at 3 point line and playing East to West... is not his game...

    if Rox want to make him into a SG then you better expect more bad shooting nights...

    We all signed up for this by staying/becoming Rockets fans when they're the youngest team in the league.

    Patterson failed to cut on that Lin penetration. Then in next play, sets a crap screen.

    These are the games where Rockets have to play defense. We really miss Mchale right now. When shots aren't falling win by defense. We don't play defense anymore.

    Ironically Sampson is the defensive coach, but our defense has gone down the drain since he took over.
