great.. 0-5!! This sucks.. To safely make the playoffs in the west we need a 52-30 record. If we go 0-5 we only have 25 games to lose for the rest of the season.. LOTTERY HERE WE COME
guys BELIEVE AND YOU WILL ACHIEVE!!!! REMEMBER THE CHAMPIONSHIP RUNS BACK IN THE 90S????? THE ROCKETS BELIEVED AND THEY ACHIEVED A CHAMPIONSHIP!! IF THE ROCKETS CAN JUST BELIEVE IN THEMSELVES THEY WILL WIN EVERY GAME!!!
We pay him 6m to sit on the bench? Don't know why people want him to start over Brooks, at least Brooks plays the majority of the games.
Yes and this year in the preseason and the 2 games he have show no impact on the team. So far Houston without him under 4 point lost on the road and missing Yao in one of the game. With Lowry in two double digit loss at home with Yao. Is not like is his fault but he hasn't show the impact he has last year and his offensive game have not improve a bit. For ppl who want to start him right now, they are not seen the game, Lowry has nos been good so far. I like Lee maybe doing some back up for him, and I like him as a back up for small stretches, he bring defense, size and athleticism to the position. We need last year Lowry, we need this badly, and AB to improve his 3 point, and mid range like last year. Is the combination of AB/Lowry that will take us far, but we need to see them getting to play like the old self or better while the are on their prime.
i was gonna say 1:4.. but what? Lowry is out? AB will get tired very soon without lowry backing him up...expect Parker goes off on him..0:5
Rockets had a 2-2 record vs Spurs last year Aaron Brooks averaged 38 minutes a game in those games Kyle Lowry played 3 of the 4 games last year vs the Spurs. Rockets WON the game last year that Lowry didnt play in.

David Andersen and Garrett Temple off the bench? Or Courtney Lee and Jordan Hill? Brad Miller is basically David Andersen. Ish can match Garret Temple. This year's team has chemistry issues and lack of defensive cohesion, not an Aaron Brooks problem (so far)
thank you man! all these people who are bashing on the rockets, leave. rockets are going through some sh$t right now, back your team up. If yao gets reinjured than yes we are out of championship potential imo.. but for now give them a break
Naw, the problem was that dude got hurt at the end of last year and then tried to play through it then, causing another injury. Basically, he will probably not be the same player for a good while if ever, so we straight up over paid for him. But I guess that makes his contract a trade asset if he can be bought out.
Ish is gonna play at least 20 Mins in this game . . . he can't shoot much worse than AB has in the last 2 games. And at least teammates will getting the ball in the flow of the offense when he's in the game - It'll be interesting how he responds - I hope he breaks out for a double digit assist night.
^ I really hope Ish is unleashed tonight with the mandate from the coach to just play and not hold back anything-well, he should not shoot from beyond three feet.
does anyone know if Ish will be activated tonight? i feel like he's our most exciting player and looked like our best PG at times.
