    Instead of trying to make the layup, KM tries to draw the foul.

    Westbrook and Durant are way too good for us to compete right now. It's games like this, and last night, that really expose our lack of a go-to guy.

    Battier misses 2 FTs, and then gets beat backdoor for an alley-oop. Absolutely pathetic.

    serious question...did Coach already give up? Or is he show casing Taylor? Did Taylor do something sexual to get PT?

    Lol, yeah... apparently Ibaka on Battier is a mismatch for Houston.

    Drawing a foul is better, imo. It adds up the opponent's team foul and could possibly get Thabo in foul trouble.

    I don't have a problem with him drawing the foul there. He's a good enough free throw shooter to where that strategy pays off. It gets opposing guys into foul trouble, and we still get the points. What I don't like is his tendency to pass off in situations where he needs to shoot (i.e. at the end of quarters, and games).

    I'd rather have the layup, get the foul in the process if he can, but make the layup...

    No, the starters played a lot of minutes last night because the bench was terrible. Courtney Lee is our only bench wing player, so he's forced to throw Taylor out there to replace Battier's tired legs.

    So when in the season do we stop playing like we're 50 years old and start playing with some heart?

    Ish should stay on the court. He didi better than Lowry in this game so far.

    Who do we have to boff to get a freaking sports team with DEFENSE in this city?!?! Between the Rockets and the Texans, it's always a race to see who can give up the most points.

    Of players that actually see the floor, he's one of the worst in the league. No joke.

    Why does Rick keep pulling Ish out? This is why we keep losing. LET HIM PLAY.
