    "What we tried to do" with Dwight AND Kobe? Or just Dwight.

    Dwight's gone now Mike. It's tome to focus on getting the player that's actually on your team to buy into your system.

    I think D'antoni is just saying that to prove a point about Dwight being a crybaby. The fact is, the Rockets read and react offense is a lot different from the pick and roll centered D'antoni offense.

    This moron insulted himself.
    I don't even think he realizes it, because he's so ****ing stupid.

    Yes. If we are using your system and succeeding whilst you are failing (this season and having failed last season) then you are a HORRIBLE coach.

    LOL no it's not.. This is the guy that benched Pau Gasol and let the offense run through Kobe Bryant instead of a Hall of Fame point guard in Steve Nash. Harden and Lin are both more willing passers than Kobe, hence why it is working for the Rockets.

    Unhealthy vs. Healthy D12. That's the key.
    They also didn't have the size and athleticism we do.
    Not even going to mention depth.:grin:

    McHale did not design the Rockets offense and defers to Finch and Bickerstaff on a number of offensive play sets. I am not sure why you are complaining about the Rockets offense, it has been one of the best in the NBA the last year plus.

    The Rocket has corner 3, free offense and fast-paced like MDA system.

    But they are flexible and better D.

    MDA's SUNS offense is still better than the current Rocket's
    But our D better.

    The only way to shut all these Laker douchenozzles up is to win a championship. The insults and hatred they've spewed towards Houston during all of this is getting to be too much. I hope we beat them by 40 tomorrow night.

    You can't be a superstar when you are a negative on Defense

    Thoroughly expect Howard to demolish the Lakers in LA...tomorrow is just gonna be a preview of things to come...

    Seriously the entire city of LA really is butt hurt to the max...its on par with the Cleveland fans after Lebron left the Cavs...

    Huge difference no Kobe. IMHO I think that was a huge factor. Who knows all I know is he looks happy and healthier. That's a huge difference maker

    The Rockets are clearly in the Laker's heads, from the coach on down. :cool:

    Right and that is why Magic Johnson, Charles Barkley and Kobe Bryant were not superstars.

    Kobe Bryant was a lockdown defender in his prime.
