    Ask yourself this, what's the difference between Rockets and Suns. The Suns can score. They got Shaq while we got Yao. The difference is, Rockets are suppose to play defense. That's how they win games.

    smart play by Lowry. No one was moving for him then and he gets something out of it.

    do you watch the games? how are you missing the 330 pound shaq setting a pick on brooks every time down the court. when yao stands at the basket and shaq sets picks on brooks (or lowry, or battier) nash is going to get open 15 footers and make them. it's not hard to understand. just like we've kind of always struggled in pick and rolls with yao here.

    Kyle Lowry is the Man. Plain and simple. Aaron Brooks would have never thought of that or do that.

    I love Aaron Brooks' scoring game, but Kyle Lowry is just so much smarter.

    It's like choosing Kevin Garnett or Amare Stoudemire.

    Its all about effort when it comes to playing defense. The Rockets still look tired in my opinion.

    Lowry got lucky refs called that. He leaned into the Suns player.

    By bringing in Wafer to the rotation and increased minutes to AB and Landry you have some young guys who just arn't great defenders and thinkers yet. They get caught up in the run and gun offense of the opposition and play that way too. That is my read of it anyways.
