    I disagree a little bit with all this one-day fever with Jordan Hill. I already knew that -with minutes- he can make baskets at this level of intensity, with this type of opposition. What I want to see in him are improvements at toughness, defensive intensity, awareness... and I don't see him stronger, nor I've seen a different attitude defensively.

    For me boxscore doesn't matter that much. Hey, Blair has been able to do 16-7 without helping his team. Of course Hill can make those numbers against him, almost everybody can; on the other hand he has failed to stop him and Splitter at almost every 1on1 in the 2nd half. And that's what we are going to need specially without Chuck, somebody who can match their intensity, intimidate, bully them.

    This is why after this game I'm even more convinced than before about that we need to sign Dalembert. He can really help this team.

    Wow! T-Will? Thanks for the good game, we always knew you have it in you.

    Just don't try to do too much. DMorey had a lot of praises for you during the game. And Coach has a lot of trust in you. Be patient and be steady.

    Entertaining game to watch; great to get back to some good ol' Rockets basketball.

    Really surprised at how good we looked early, but Lee and Martin looked horrible.

    T-Will looked good second half, I think he will really make an impact on this team.

    Clutch should really put *confirmed* accounts on the site, like Twitter. If that dude was just a troll I feel so bad for this poster.

    All I can say is that I am happy NBA is back. Rockets will be entertaining to watch but they are far from being a contender. Sigh.

    Jordan Hills basketball intelligence looks better. Twill was very impressive. That new guy Greg Smith was pretty good in limited minutes. He certainly provides the muscle we are missing with Chuck Hayes gone. We might need to keep that young guy on the roster in fact. His strength is pretty good. Greg Smith might turn into something.

    i don't believe you but terrence williams needs to just focus on basketball and not worry about what people think about him. forget tv, forget twitter, forget video games and all that crap. he has the potential to be a great player he just needs to watch a few michael jordan documentaries and see how determined that guy was. williams is still young, so the world is his oyster.

    Someone probably mentioned this, but Thabeet falls down A LOT. And HARD. That worries the hell out of me. High risk for injury.
