    Very pleasant first half.

    Rockets have to continue to execute just like the bench did.

    He is. When the team leads by 41 ~ 31, and the Bulls called for a time-out, he was the first to come out and cheered for the great performance of the Tier 2 Rockets !!

    We're barely beating one of the worst teams of the league. That gives you an indication of where we stand in the league. BTW, how did Boston do against them last night?

    Actually. . had we kept Francis and never traded him . . we would have gotten further

    Steve Francis lost in the 1st round but to teams FAR SUPERIOR to the teams Tricia-Mac fell too

    The 2nd play I saw of the new Adelman-style Rockets in the pre-season:
    McGrady on the left wing with the ball standing still palming the ball, looks at his man, takes a dribble step forward, steps back and rises for a jumper over his man.......

    PLENTY time left on the clock. That was NOT at all within the flow of the offense lol. Just McGrady being T-Mac.

    That was my first red flag of participation in the new offense but a 6-1 start to the season erased it from memory....

    Their record does not make them ONE OF THE WORST TEAMS IN THE LEAGUE.

    The Bulls were an elite team in the West last year. A weak start doesn't drop the to the cellar.

    Similarly, it would have been wrong to label Dallas as a mediocre team a couple of weeks ago when they were struggling.

    The Bulls are at least an average team, if you look beyond their record.

    Would you really have been surprised is Chicago came out and stomped all over the Rockets? I could easily imagine something like that happening. This could be a lot worse.

    At least the Rockets are playing like they care.

    You can't think like that. I mean, we did beat the Pistons by 5 while having a historically bad shooting night from the ft line, and they just beat the Celts on their home court.

    It's not T-Mac's fault guys aren't moving when he gets the ball. Once T-Mac makes his moves guys should be cutting and setting screens. Usually it's one guy screens and 3 others spot up. If we could get 2 of those 3 to make a cut to the basket we'll be baking brownies.
