    You can play team ball all you want but if your game plan is to shoot three's and you can't make three's you will lose. Thar's why the heat was on the coaching staff and others believed it should have been on Morey as well.

    The ONLY way that happens is if we put the ball in Lawson's hands more often and take it away from Harden - more often.

    Harden can still have the ball but let someone else initiate.

    I like the low amount of TO's but they slow the game down to a snails pace. One of the reasons Rockets had so many TOs last year was because they deliberately tried to run the other team into the ground. This year the Rockets have slowed to a crawl and it's not that fun to watch. Especially since they stroll up the court and run absolutely nothing.

    Rocket wait until the 4th quarter to play like they played last year.

    Brewers 4 charges = potentially 12 points... Bring in barrier to get this mf'ers practicing taking charges again like the good ole Hayes, bbattier days.

    I agree I liked the offense tonight, we all no James is going to have the rock in crunch time so we should all get over that now it's just the way it's alway going to be and I'm okay with that because he's been the most clutch player the past 3 season.

    But the offense flowed a lot better with ty, everyone touched the ball harden got a lot of open looks himslef that he just needs to make he played better defense in the second half and still managed to get his rebounds and assists.

    See James you can still get your 30 7/7 with ty running the show your that great just let your teammates make it easier on you.

    Hakeem had to grow up and trust his teammates, hopefully Harden is learning this right now 4 years earlier than dream also. Took Hakeem till age 30 to figure it out.

    Playing through it and changing the game plan seem like two different things. They tried to play through it, they couldn't then they fired Mchale hoping it would change the game plan it did a little but everyone is still shooting crappy. We all know Morey went cheap on the role players so that he could chase his third star and this is the result. When Harden struggles there is no one else. There is no Jeremy Lin annoying as he was he still attacked the basket relentlessly and shot the three above average and there is no Parsons who could get you 18 points efficiently. Now because your second star is not a go to guy on offense and your role plays can't shoot we suck. And even if Ty is playing well his best ability is to pass the ball. Well no one is making shots. We will look a little better when Ty gets better but we will still be ****ty until Harden becomes last years Harden or we make trades for real shooters. The only hope is that Dmo comes back and picks up where he left off other than that we need trades.

    Again we tried running it through Lawson before it didn't work, he simply played better tonight.

    I predicted it. I think him sitting couple games allowed him to see what the team was lacking and what role he needed to play. Now let's give Ariza some time off. He plays a lot of minutes.

    I'm watching this fool Jones get the ball and just try to go at AD and miss every thing or get blocked.

    Agreed but the ty Lawson tonight wasn't somthing he hasn't been the past 4 season in Denver. Id say the Lawson we've seen so far this season is a guy we've never seen.

    I'd put more stock in him playing like tonight or better than how he's player the last 12 games before tonight.

    I would too. We all know he has had personal issues. The question was would it effect his play. It has. Same as Harden he has had personal issues and it's effecting his play. Now the question is how long will it adversely effect his play?

    Yeah he would have been great here. His offense is much needed his defense is lacking but it's not like Ariza is playing defense all that great this year anyway.

    Rockets starters have been together for four-consecutive games. No other Rockets lineup has started more than two. But Howard to sit on Fri.
