They need to start running some high PNRs to free up Yao but for the 2nd game in a row, Yao looks tired and somewhat out of it. Something is definitely not right with him.

Our PGs are getting schooled...again. Their play is so bad, our offense has broken down and Ward/Lue are also getting torched on the defensive end. Also, JJ is a nonfactor again as is MoT. Howard is being Howard meaning he's "OK".

Toronto has a really good gameplan that the Rockets can expect to see from now on: Force the tempo of the game into a full court game and use their speed and athleticism to deny the ball from going into the post. I suspect that this is why Witherspoon is playing instead of Mutumbo. As usual, they are having trouble scoring points. It will be interesting to see what adjustments JVG makes for the 2nd half.

The Refs have taken out Yao this year so far. He is afraid to go inside because he continues to get every thing called against him

I thought JVG should get a B+ for last year's team. This one looks like an F so far. He's got to deal with the O, as much as I know that sticks in his craw.

As happyricky said in the "This IS McGrady's Team" thread.

The HONEYMOON is over! This is Yao's 3rd year.

Why is this team so gassed in the second game of the season. I know it's the 2nd night of a back to back but this is really really not good.

at least Yao tried to dunk that. Alston actually looks pretty good, still not worth the money though.

I'm not worried about JVG right now. I'm worried about our roster, .i.e how our players, play (McGrady/Yao/Howard/MoT/Boki/Lue...etc...)....

Next we should look for trades and FA (improve our team).

Lastly, JVG (end of the season).

It's still to early in the season. The Rockets are gonna turn it up soon and dominate, I am really confident about that.
