    Being consistently at number 9, we failed to make the playoffs, AND, we failed to tank.

    Oh well, time to return the cable box and start saving 60 dollars a month again.

    Three years running. Can't get more consistent than that.

    Again, we are mediocre when our best players aren't playing, and our bench players aren't coming off the bench.

    Kyle Lowry and Kevin Martin are now absurdly underrated. Clutchfans... :grin:

    lowry and martin played last year to get us to a 9th seed and martin's crappy play at the beginning of the year is why we're in this mess

    Much of Martin's crappy play can be attributed to McHale's crappy offense.

    This mess has been caused by Dragic and Lee getting huge minutes in our last 5 games, and being unable to close.

    Also, we are more talented this year. Chandler Parsons/Marcus Camby/Samuel Dalembert...

    1.) Louis Scola and Chandler Parsons are our 2 best all around players. They wouldnt start for any team that considers themselves "contenders".

    2.) Transition defense. We dont play it. This 5 game avalanche has been riddled with terrible transition D.

    3.) No real finisher. We lack a go to scorer in the final minutes.

    1+2+3=No playoffs, or ^above mentioned mediocrity.
    Un@ss some cash Morey. As a fan all I want is for Houston to be competitive.

    A mediocre team doesn't drop 6 straight when we need it the most. We are worse than mediocre. I'm tired of loyalty. Get some new players!

    we have:

    1) our 1st rounder
    2) NYK's 1st rounder
    3) Dallas's 1st rounder

    we SHOULD be able to get some talent infusion with this talented draft class.
