    Seriously, David Andersen sucks so much on defense. It's not even funny.

    How did that one instance I mentioned not count as good defense? Vince was on one with him and Chase stayed in front of him the entire time, contest the shot and Vince was force to pull up for a jumper and missed...............how was that a bad sequence?

    Bullard and Worrell are talking about how the Rockets are at a disadvantage because they have $38 million on the bench. OK, agreed... but that was a valid excuse in '06 and '07. By '08 that was a little tired. Exhausted by '09. I can't believe we're heading into 2010 singing that same tune.

    Good defense is not made during "one Instance" If Vince didn't a attempt/make another shot for the rest of the game that would be considered good defense..

    I know but the point was to show that he CAN play defense, and in pretty decent in some spurts. He has deceptive lateral quickness

    and i can't believe leebigez keeps reporting that he hears we're gonna re-sign the $23M component of that 38 to another longterm deal :eek:

    There's no energy. Everyone is just standing around.
    Put in Landry and Hayes!

    This is going to be an ugly game for the Rockets. We're like zombies out there.

    Oh, can we trade D. Andersen for R. Andersen?

    Wow, two open dunks and lots of defensive mistakes. Painful first quarter.

    On the bright side, I loved watching Andersen actually demand the ball on the post when he had the mismatch.
