    Indeed... this is a bad night. Looks like nobody had any fire from the start of this game... and you can't afford to do that against ANY NBA team (see Bobcats losses).

    Against the matchup zone, we can run some P&R to free Yao for some 15 foot jumper. All I have been seeing is that TMac taking all shots in the 4th. Hope that they go in and we win.

    Our offense is in complete shambles. Every time a big sets a pick for Tmac, he has already started his move. The hornets have 2 players that can shoot, and we can't stop their pick and roll. Tmac is getting hit on every jumpshot but still making a decent number of them.

    He can't defend players with good jump shots. Wonder why didn't Rockets make more effort trading for Brown instead of Wesley. He looks like exactly what Rockets needed at PF position.
    And he's old.

    It seems like once we try to get Yao touches and he is denied good position or just defended good, our offense goes haywire. Are the Hornets that good on defense? They look good to me... T-mac is taking questionable shots but atleast he's taking the team on his shoulders and trying to win.. our supporting cast is just playing horrible tonight. Let's hope we get some open looks to fall and we can pull this out

    Hornets said NO when they asked for Brown.

    Yao is working his ass off out there. If our shooters could shoot he wouldnt have so many rebounds.

    Down 4. Great offensive boards by Yao.

    The Rockets offense is unwatchable after the constant double team on Yao.

    Ugh... we need Yao to get a dunking coach.

    Honestly... maybe that's why he settles for so many layups.
