    Scola rarely passes the ball once he posts up even when it's a tough shot. Luckily he makes them a lot but still it would be nice to see him kick it out more.

    Guys tired out by the end of the game. Every 3 pt in the OT was short. Played tough though a few more defensive rebounds wins the game.

    Lowry 3-11, 0-6 from 3. But I guarantee all the blame will e placed on ab. Rockets fans is smart.

    I really like Kevin Martin after tonight, I'm excited to see the make up of this team after 2/24.

    I really wish we could see a line up with

    Brooks
    Martin
    TWill - running the point guarding the threes
    Scola
    Hayes

    Just feel horrible, this was a must win and we let it slip through our fingers. Rockets gave it EVERYTHING they had but were one legit big man short of being able to beat teams like the Lakers.

    Rockets are now 5 games(6 tiebreaker) out of the 8th seed and 3.5 games behind Memphis now. Clippers are now only 1.5 games behind and GS is .5 behind. Things should get worse tomorrow, facing a rested Jazz team with a recovered Deron Williams.

    They have the ball a lot because they are the point guards. They end up shooting at the end of the shot clock because they are actually quick enough to get off their own shot.

    almost every single possession out of a timeout resulted in a beautiful play.
    that was cool, I guess.

    No, Brooks ball hog mentality screwed Martin over. Brooks never passes to Martin, he dribbled the shot clock down and either shot or turned it over. You can;t blame Martin if he is not given the ball. The only time he got it, he scored.

    As far as Lowry goes, you're suggesting that he's a ball hog because he takes a lot of shots with 1 on the shot/game clock? You would prefer he did what? PASSED with 1 on the shot/game clock? Kyle's not dribbling out the clock, he's just put in that situation a lot.

    Aaron Brooks scored 16 points on 19 shots, 10 of them 3 pointers. My dislike for Aaron grows with each game.

    Yeah the lack of Martin touches in OT was just astounding. At least put the guy a pick and roll. Let him turn the corner on somebody. Christ.
