I hate seeing Yao injured, but maybe it's time to start Hill at center. Something has to change and at least with Hill, you know what you will get every game, with no limitations. At least he is athletic enough to rebound the ball and block shots. You absolutely have to go with a line up that does not include Yao
No heart from anyone other than Martin. Scola had a horrendous game. Failed to box out all game, no defense half of the time (that one play where Yi just dribbled past him and he just stood there was disgusting). The team looks way too tense and they are a step slow to everything. I don't know what's going on with the offense. Half the teams that we're playing just overplay the dribble handoffs. Instead of cutting hard to punish them we just turn it over half of the time or stand there confused. I don't know why everyone is hating on Lowry this game. Even the TOs by Martin, while disappointing obviously, are more a product of the team offense not running smoothly and therefore Martin has to force things. In the end I think the rebounding was what lost it for us this game. At least the defense looked good in the second half, outside of rebounding.
-I'd like to thank Shane Battier for his contributions to the game tonight. -Free Jordan Hill -Scola's defense is horrid -We have no closers -Rick Adelman is on the hot seat
Without Rick Adelman this team will suck even worse. Can't believe so many people putting all this on Adelman... this team sucks. Jordan Hill is a very very poor man's Carl Landry. Hill can't shoot for nothing. These guys aren't tough and they play with zero motivation or passion. These guys are just collecting a check. Get a superstar or this team is lotto bound bottom line. Lost to the freakin Washington Wizards are you freakin kidding me?
the dude became a ballhog the last few minutes, plus I think he just gas out in the last few minutes.
Dear Morey, PLEASE CUT CHUCK HAYES SO ADELMAN WILL STOP PLAYING HIM 25-30MINS & AHEAD OF NOT 1 BUT TWO RECENT "LOTTERY PICKS"
I agree. Lowry has been awful since the start of the season. I'm not sure if a lot of it has to do with his back spams and him adjusting his game, but he just isn't all there. And Scola...love his unwillingness to give up but he left his man wide open, showed way too much on pick and rolls, and never boxed out his man.
thanks for cheering me up. I'm not in a good mood at all, but BIG, LONG ARMS, JUMPY JUMPY made me burst out laughing. roflz
The only fix is hope brooks return soon. Make him starter or backup to Ish. Sit Lowry a** for good and try to trade him. He was making poor decision before his injury. Became a CHUCKER towards the end of last year and got paid. Bad contract. If that doesn't get the team better, the coaching staff needs to get an overhaul, if that doesnt work, rebuild lol
I dont see how the Rockets can win in the NBA with a team full of role-players. This is not NCAA basketball. The Wizards are not a good team but John Wall is better than everyone on our current roster. Unless Morey can pull off a trade for a star-level or superstar-level player, which I doubt he will be able to do, we just can't win.
Where the hell was Lee and Hill tonight. Clearly this Wizards are young and athletic, why wouldnt you try and counter with young athletic legs. Its clearly horrible coaching by Adelman. Yao or no Yao, we should have enough talent to beat the F'n Wizards. Time for Adelman to get outta town and time to put the Yao era behind us and move on.
