    So why did RA take Joey out?????

    He and Landry are starting to form some chemistry....

    iggy is overpaid but atleast he is better than any 2/3 we have

    if we are this dependent on lowry to save us we are going nowhere next year or this year

    unbelievable loss.

    Lowry goes out, Dorsey goes out, and suddenly we can't score and can't defend.

    Houston scored 35pts in the 2nd Quarter, and only 34 in the 2nd half?????

    **** WT F!??!?!!

    glad I came home to watch us play like idiots while I had been checking the score over and over at work seeing us up double-digits. what a waste. New Orleans won tonight, Grizzlies lost, Utah might win, and basically we just screwed ourselves THAT much more by losing to a less-than-20-win team on our homefloor.

    gdmt guys.

    I don't put this loss completely on RA, but I've said it about 5 times in the last month...he needs to stop being so stubborn with his rotation. He gave Dorsey a shot in Memphis and look what happened!

    With Ariza hobbling, Bud being a little out of form and Lowry being injured, wasn't this the perfect time to give JT 10 mins to see what he can do? The guy had two 30pt games in the D-League. If this is a development year, then lets get some development happening. We need to see if Dorsey and JT can cut it before this off-season.

    A little too late for that, isn't it? There is a reason RA has never won a championship despite having championship rosters in the 90's and early 2000's. That's my opinon and I a sticking to it.

    that ankle sprain looked exactly like budinger's ankle sprain earlier in the season, except budinger landed from a jump so lowry should be back right after the allstar break.

    Disappointing loss. coulda shoulda woulda won :( Losing Lowry hurts too. Also hurts that no one else could help down the stretch. Brooks had/has to do it all with the only other option being fronted. Too predictable down the stretch. Better luck Tuesday against Miami

    do we know for sure what his injury is? Seemed like he was grabbing his hamstring and was still in pain when sitting, dont think it's his ankle :confused:

    You can roll your eyes all you want. There was plenty of time to make changes, and RA failed to make them. A hobbled Ariza should have never stayed this long.

    VERY predictable....you would think Rick Adelman would try something different down the stretch. :confused:

    wow we just sucked fourth quater, on defence and offence..

    ariza can make a freethrow or a layup, battier is just there, shooting bricks and let AI swishing threes. no movement no defence.. we F'ucked up big time and did not deserve that game.
