Can we play Yao already. I seriously dont give a damn now if his foot breaks again. This is embarrasing to watch, if he thinks he's healthy, play him GDI. We got ABUSED by their bigs
It's always the ref, isn't it. Scott Skiles went to Bogut on the post, and that was it. We didn't have the momentum to push it up. Didn't force many TOs, couldn't run, mudded down. On the other end, Scola was taken out pretty much by Bogut, Battier can't hit a thing. Bud, well, is bud, looks good when makes the trey. T
Scola let another respectable big man dominate him, I cop heaps for saying this because people keep forgetting it after he plays a good game against a scrub, Scola is the worst post defender (starter) in the league, we just can't have him playing alongside Miller and Hayes who is just too tiny. Pair him with Hill or get a defensive big via trade or else we will continuously get owned by bigs that can do more than walk and chew gum. JT and JH got some time and did pretty well I thought, thats a plus, Bud needs to go to the D-League to find his touch, don't know why Rick insists on risking games just to let Bud find his touch...
Budinger looks like he wants to get rid of the ball immediately on offense. On defense he looks lost.
Ten more losses, and it is time to play the young players. Yao Ming or no Yao Ming, the future does not look good for the Rockets vis a vis teams such as the Thunder or Chicago.
To win 50 games, which is probably the minimum number of victories necessary to make the playoffs, the Rockets must now go 42-18.
Leave it to the Rockets outstanding defense to make any offense look good. Accept it. Rockets arent a playoff team and they arent good enough to go on a run. Doesnt matter who the teams are. We are looking at a 25-30 win team.
The truth is, we are who we are: a talent-less, no muscle team, no matter how much you try to make up with hustle and smart basketball We play like a European team with our starters on, and really bad offense when our bench is on with no point guard
