    THe rockets suck. They will never winning anything. Fire Adelman. Trade McGrady. Trade Yao. We need to rebuild.

    We blew them out by 25 points or something in the third game of the season last year and look where it got us.

    You know what's the worst? We lost ok, sometimes it happens so you canot complain, you cannot win 82 games in the season.

    But it was a close game. 2-3 pts game. We were in the game. But we needed only 2 minutes to make it down 10. That's what I hate. We always get blown at the end.

    Even if we lost we should lose by 4-3 pts. Not 10.

    Just a collapse in the 4th...AGAIN. The refs killed any hope of a comeback with some BS calls. But hey, even with an incomplete system, the Rockets are still a very good team. I'm excited to see how good they can be. They showed flashes of it in this game, but couldn't sustain it. I know that it's a tired line, but it's true. We can't expect them to be world beaters four games into the season. Good game, saw many things that they could improve on, but overall, I like what's happening.

    I'm going to have to disagree with you there.

    Why do you think McGrady has been scoring so much better? Why Yao has been struggling and spending less time in the low post? Why he's been getting so many jumpers from the high post? Why Head hasn't been able to just spot up and shoot like last year?

    Those are some of the results of our new offense.

    we're deep. we just don't know the system that well to fully execute down the stretch. give us a few months and we'll execute. don't worry. it's not like they blew us out. they "out-executed" us.

    we just need to get more comfortable in this offense.

    I don't know how people are hating on Tmac tonight. He scored, got assists, got to the line and was aggressive. Defense was poor tonight.

    reality check for the rockets.

    they aren't the best team in the league right now. doesn't mean we have to change anything.

    i'd take winning 75% of our games this season.

    The good thing is that, after this game Coach A and his staff will make some special designs for Yao.

    Also, not that it's a good thing, but we can't blame this fourth quarter collapse on Alston.

    scola's gonna be a solid role player for the rockets, but he's never gonna be an star in the nba. he's not athletic enough. he still should be a really good role player.

    we lost because we play our weakness into their strength. not let yao abuse diop in the post is beyond comprehension.
