I so agree about Andersen, the front office needs to find a sucker to take him. Second thing, Does anyone know if Lowry or Ariza is playing. I'm assuming Shane will if he's over the flu.
Brooks & Martin should not play at the same time... Even Martin has good stats in Kings but Kings also cannot win. If we want to use Martin as first weapon, we should play defense player on pg & sf...
I don't think we could say much about tonight. It's just one of those nights without rhyme or reason. They kept draining those threes no matter what. Just like how we killed Milwaukee. If the Jazz were just playing like their usual self tonight, I think we would have gotten a really good shot at beating them.
With 3 of our top 4 defenders out, our defense was non existant. That's understandable. What I'm really excited about is the flow of the offense & KMart getting us to the line. How many assists did Hayes have? I really liked one play where Hayes was at the elbow & Martin cut thru the middle but Hayes didn't get him the ball. Bud then followed Martin & Hayes got him the ball for a layup. I really hope Temple can keep improving. DWilliams doesn't like playing against a 6-6 point. He got mauled the whole game last night by Evans & then Temple harassed him for parts of the game tonight. I also liked JJ, Hill & Armstrong altho Hill &/or Armstrong need to go to the D league to get playing time. We'll have fun welcoming a future & former Rocket in our next 2 games @ TC. :grin:
I think the Rockets organization has been doing that since the beginning of the year. It's just the fans that are expecting more since the team's great start.
I am puzzled by the lack of defensive intensity the last few games. Utah averages 102 points a game and they dropped 133 on us. Are we giving up on this season?
David Anderson is garbage. Utah was making everything. You can't really do anything about it. We will win our next game hopefully.
Hill may go to D league but Armstrong has been in NBA for several season... I think he will only replace the role of Cook...
So much for all those people saying "We WILL make the playoffs!" after only one win. LOL I just hope we can get a good pick in the draft, and maybe use it as a sign and trade (Bosh?)
We can but they were making even contested 3 point shots. And as everyone has been saying we are missing 3 pretty solid defenders out there. Kevin Martin was a bright spot and i think Scola needed more touches. Other than that im already over with this game. On to the next.
That's what I'm saying. Sometimes, you can flip a quarter 20 times, and it'll come up heads 19. Sometimes, you can jack up threes the whole game, and they'll fall like the rain, contested or not. Our defense was embarrassing tonight, but our offense was playing well. Gotta face facts... sometimes the other team just can't be stopped. Case in point: the Nets beat the Celtics tonight.
DAVID ANDERSON SHOULD NOT BE IN THE NBA AT ALL, HECK EVEN NOT IN THE D-LEAGUE, he should just retire already! anways the rockets right now are the worst defensive team in the nba, even golden state does not give up 133 points in a game! the warriors would probably score that on this rockets starting line up. never ever again start c-bud along with k-mart and AB
