    3 of our starting 5 are soft( we arent going anywhere with these guys)

    Draft Harrison Barnes, get the kid Michael Kidd-Gilchrist from Kentucky, and get some tough bigs( wish we could have gotten Javale Mcgee that one draft)


    Chandler Parsons, and Donatas Motiejunas( more soft players for our future) sigh

    I think actually Bud and Kevin tried very hard.....they are an ok tandem but not great......
    Agreed If we ever plan to get to the next level, actions has to be taken.

    All those Budinger supporters... that is the fatal flaw of the team. You can't have Scola/Hill or Martin/Bud. You have to choose Scola/Dalembert (which we will) and Martin/plus defender if we are going to have any chance at winning.

    Not a knock on Hill and Bud but changes HAVE to be made.

    Zach Randolph with 22 points, Marc Gasol with 20 points, both nearly perfect from the field.

    Pau, 14 pts, 8 rebs, 7-11 FG
    Bynum 21 pts, 22 rebs

    No post D. No rebounding.

    Well what has happened to Scola's rebounding? Last year he was almost averaging a double double. I love our players and love the effort they put out there, but we are a long ways from being a contender!! I think we all know though that we are a long ways from being contenders.

    2 of those guys definitely are. One of those guys is tremendously charmin soft and seems to disappear when games get tight in the 4th qtr. This is not knee jerk because it's been the same way since last season as well.

    You named 5 non black players. So maybe you just think the rockets only need black guys. :rolleyes:

    Not only that we are borderline playoff team right now. First we must become a playoff team.
