    Our defense was horrible in the first half. The officiating is as horrible.

    WHARE IS THE DEFENSE. It is PATHETIC. Dunk after dunk, after dunk. They are shooting like 90% in the 2nd quater. WTF

    Prime example of a time when Adelman makes a poor decision in minutes. Mutumbo should of been in the game for the last 3 minutes or so. We gave up about 6 dunks in a row.

    I can't watch the game because I'm stuck at work.

    From the box score though, it looks like that neither team bothered to play any defense.

    Wake up Rockets.

    There is another example of a foul that was not called. Wafer tries to shoot the three and two Nuggets just plow over him and its a no call!

    That is just BS

    watching that quarter must have hurt Mutumbo. Mutumbo could had 3 or 4 blocks with the amount of shots taken in the paint.

    well denver is playing equally bad but defense is supposed to be our strong point.

    i don't understand why adelman does NOTHING to address it when they keep doing the same thing over and over. time out? do some f#$king coaching. you think van gundy would have allowed this?

    The team is scared to play defense because the Refs call a foul on every legit block but do not return the favor on the other end of the court. That is why Yao is on the bench with 3 fouls!

    So Adelman sees layup after layup and dunk after dunk but leaves Mutumbo on the bench.

    Brilliant idea. I don't care if Denver is fast pace team get Mutumbo in there.

    Chuck Hayes should be on the court with Yao. Scola and Landry just keep getting Yao exposed by fouls.

    Do not blame this pathetic ass defense on bad officiating. There is no excuse for layup drill for the last 5 minutes of the half.

    He played Deke some the other night. I guess he thinks Mutombo can't play at this pace. He still should play him it's not like the other guys are stopping them.
