    remember when we lost games anytime we could not hold a team below 90 points.

    When Yao comes back our defense will improve.

    That will be the problem next year as well. We'll have enough offense no matter it's Lowry or AB starting, but defense can be bad without the balance.

    Uh yeah I want our main scorers to do what they are good at, score. I'm not asking Martin to blanket his man with tough D, that's not what he's known for.

    Excatly. Yao himself can' save this kind of defense all by himself. Lineup needs to be more balanced offensively and defensively.

    Seems like the Rockets lost all their defensive intensity when they traded T-Mac :(

    He's only done it for about half of his career.
    He did it with a good passing big man in a offense that really complimented his game well. We don't have such a luxury on this team. They had better weapons to compliment his game.

    They lost that before the trade.

    They can't keep that intensity all season long, especially when there isn't much to play for. And the starting lineup right now is just not right for play defense. They have enough offensive talent, but not enough defensive talent.

    I consider hayes and scola to be good willing passers.

    Willing yes, good perhaps but they don't have the length Miller does so they don't see the same lanes he did/does.
