    These really need to learn how to close out games. Damn, they should have blown this team out, instead of having to hit pressure free throws down the stretch.

    That's right. We really need a good games for Howard. Luther is playing very good and i hope Snyder will play. There is no Bonzi so we maybe should active Span for some minutes, or Lucas. We are playing well. In that game (Portland) we just thought that we would get an easy win but no...

    That was a weak arse throw and they had a lot more time left on the game clock (over 3 seconds left). We only had one second left, even throwing it down the court away from everyone would have done the trick.

    Not the same situation...

    We wouldn't have traded Roy if he landed on our laps...in fact Rockets were trying to trade up to grab Roy.

    Luther Head? Chuck Hayes?

    Chuck is now a starter for crying out loud. If that's not development then what is?

    Is Tmac OK? If tmac hurt, Jeff will lost his job next year and we all will hate him.

    Jeff use our starters too much, I don't like his 8 now it is 7 rotation.

    But you need the ball to touch someone before it goes out of bounds. Also, you need to take the timeout to tell them to do that. I doubt that's what Shane Battier would have thought of right away.

    I think it wasn't a bad timeout.

    the two old guys are contributing 0 score there... You should develop your bench instead of hanging your luck on the performance of two players whose age total is probably 90, especially when they are not doing that much in the game right now (I mean, it has been for a while since Yao comes back, it likes all a sudden they lost the desire to play). Not blame them though, just don't like JVG's strategy.

    The guy is making an honest assessment and comment, and he is probably in the company of many others. Take it easy!

    I agree. Juwan sucks. He is not shooting the bal well. But we have to play Snyder, who is a great athlete and defender. He can take it to the rim, dunk it. I like his game. JVG shpouldn't play 7 players, he should play 10 i think. It will be Deke, Juwan, Head, Lucas and Snyder
