    That's because we're going OVER every single screen, instead of under it. That's by far the biggest change I've seen in our defense all year. We're giving their guards five feet of space to shoot.

    Artest doesnt fit this team. Same with Adelman. I say Adelman goes but NO one will listen to me. :confused:

    It has been the problem the last 3 games, teams are shooting above 50% and they stay there. I can't believe it and this can not continue.

    Yao's off switch is fronting. It'll be flipped on in the fourth quarter, regardless.

    How are you going to tell me that Aaron Brooks is able to push Leon Powe that easily? What a joke.

    Wow, no D from the Rockets so far. Also, Artest doesn't look anywhere near 100%. On the bright side, the bench looks good.

    this is adelmans offense...good cuts landry and hayes...step up on the d...why is brooks helping off eddie house? brooks can't help on a big, too small, and eddie is too good of a 3 point shooter

    Until Deke makes his way into that paint, the Rockets will never protect it efficiently.

    These have got to be the softest rims in the league.

    Landry needs to learn how to move his feet or block shots.

    Is there any way I can take JVG and Adelman and just put them together?

    We start with an defensive coach with no offense then switch to a offensive coach who can't get his teams to play defense. Can we find acoach who can do both?!

    Rick Ad's offense will never work in Houston, the players are doing whatever they want
