    And I thought we played poorly against the Jazz. :(

    Are the Kings that much better than us? It will be interesting to see what kind of adjustment JVG can make for the second half.

    I hope Mavs win nuggets. there is no chance Mavs will finish behind Rox. On the other hand, Nuggets is in the race for the 8th seed.

    Then 8 other teams must not be winners because Kings are 8-0 at home.

    I take that as you either didn't watch last game against the jazzs or you have short term memory ;)

    Our offense just sucks.

    In the 1st half, only Yao shoots 50% from the floor. Apart from Yao and Steve, the rest of the Rockets are 2-17% from the floor. We need shooters, guys. Cato cannot shoot. Boki thinks too mcuh before shooting. JJ, Pike, and Cat are all sporadic shooters.

    JVG has no clue on offense. We have no offensive sets other than pounding the ball inside to Yao. Otherwise, it's Steve and Cat doing ISOs. The players need to be in motion without the ball all the time. Otherwise, we will get no easy baskets.

    It's just frustrating to see that the Rockets play so bad. On the other hand, I have to say that the Kings basketball is what basketball should be played. It's beautiful.

    You want your competitors lose, not win! Mavs is not our competitor, Denver is.

    well guys I warned you before that the kings tend to get really hot and it's nearly impossible to shut them down. Too many weapons at once and we can shut down opposing clubs from time to time. Don't get down on yourself, we already lost 3 games this year after leading by 20 at halftime so it may get interesting yet. Hopefully not:p

    There is a positive to be gained from this Game. There is no chance that JVG will miss the mistakes and problems created by our players. He is seeing the Kings play first class Team Baketball on both ends of the Court.The Rockets I must score mind set is clearly evident and we cant hide our heads in the sand and say otherwise.JVG will need at least this seasopn to sort this lot out!

    It's bad. Alton Ford has already gotten PT tonight. The best quote so far this year "It's like watching a professional team play a college team" and "It cant get much worse than the first half"

    by Cynthia Cooper and her sidekick Dud boy on the half time show.

    One major difference (besides the obvious) between the Kings and Rox are they are much willing to take the wide open 15-18 footers than drive into the teeth of the opposing team.

    We didn't play anywhere near this bad against Utah. At least we showed a little interest in the game. Tonight they are showing no signs of life.

    Sorry folk. I don't think Nuggets has any damn chance to be a 8th seed even they have a winning record.

    Strange, but the Rockets have a better road record than Mavs. After tonight, Rockets will be 4-5, while Mavs are 2-6.
