    This really sucks. As a houston fan I feel we are cursed in every sense imagined. Last season texans predicted Super Bowl bound, then end up 2-14. Rockets predicted to go to western conference finals, then lose in 6 to the trailblazers. Start 9-1 and Howard gets a knee injury. This happens year after year in every sports. At least we have the dynamo

    I just hope Mchale tries to use DMO like he would Dwight. Let's just try to force feed DMO on the block.. Would love to see Canaan tonight too..

    Dmo needs to throw his body around in the paint a little more. His too damn big to be shying away from contact. dude does floaters like he's ****ing shawn marion.

    Black starting at center is a huge indictment of Morey

    Rockets won't sniff a title until Morey realizes the value of role players and coaching. Stop with this 3rd star or bust mentality...

    Feed the ball to Dmo? I think that would be a waste of time. Lets just go full Viper mode. Play fast and let it rain threes. We just don't have anyone that can play in the paint.

    What ever he does I hope he is aggressive! if he sees Harden going ISO just duck in in the paint and get position he will pass it to you! DMO can toss up that limp bull**** all he wants just be confident throwing that garbage up. Be confident and don't get discouraged..

    It just seems when he misses ONE ****ing shot everyone thinks he's done and they stop throwing it to him... I miss gel Mohawk DMO who was hunting wolves in the woods and wanting Dwight to catch him and ****.

    DMO's confidence is directly related to his hairstyle.. I hope he has product in his hair today.

    Only way we win is if we do two of three things:
    1) Keep them under 95 points
    2) Hit at least 22 threes at >40%
    3) Harden scores 50+

    But the way the team has been playing, tonight is not going to be pretty. Get your NBA2K15 disc ready.

    We can win this one tonight.

    We're at home. We are more desperate than they are. We're due to play a good game.

    The line is only 4 points. Vegas thinks it will be closer than we do. Dallas is also on the back end of a back-to-back.

    Our Defense > Their Offense

    Am I dreaming?

    I think that is a myth! DMO has moves you just have to keep feeding him. Don't stop giving him the ball if he makes one mistake. DMO is a good passer, he can pass out of the post if he has cutters. He can swing the ball even if he isn't doubled. I just don't understand this idea that raining 3s is a better Idea than feeding DMO and slowing the game down a bit.

    I hate to say it but I agree with you. This a direct reflection of how moreyball is flawed. We have gotten lucky in the past on "valuable assets", but sooner or later you start to find out why some of these guys went un-drafted or why they slipped to the second round. You aren't going to win a championship on "value". I would rather have a deep team with depth rather than 3 superstars any day.

    That's the spirit. Social media will get the message.
