    Well, I think a lot of the problem is that we play our core people entirely too long. I don't think there's another team out there, that play the 1, 2, and 3 spot 40 plus minutes every game. Thankfully, I think JVG has seen it's draining them, and he's working in some people in the 2 and 3 spot longer. Than again, it hasn't been an easy pick for Van Gundy with Pike, Boki, and Griffin not able to hit a shot...

    Tough stretch, but the next games definitely favor us.

    Can't wait for Cato to come back!! Yao needs him.

    yeah, we have played aWFUL!!
    no way we should lose to scrub teams like the lakers, t-wolves, nugz, or the kings, i mean, its not like they're playing for anything...
    or anything.

    The problem is that we frequently play we're not playing for anything.

    The problem is byond that four losses, it started from the night we let the win slipped away at home playing the suns, then we lost to warrior. Then three wins in OT, a hopeless loss to Memphis in between. and now 4 more losses in a row. Yes, they are good teams, but should we beat at least one of them?

    we are within ome month to the palyoff during this strech, how you are going to expect them to pass the first round if they continued playing like that. Have some confidence!!

    The other scary part about the rest of the season is that our next 4 games are back to backs with only 1 day of rest between them. The team is already tired.

    We play the Clippers the day after a now tough GS team and at Utah the day after playing the Nuggets at home.

    This is an extremely tough part of the schedule.

    Yao plays his best with only 1 day of rest. So, perhaps this will be a good thing

    If you don't drink by now, you're probably in the clear...

    If the rockets lost their next 2 games that would make it very interesting. Because they have that backs against wall mentality.

    Well, if the Rockets didn't SUCK so much, I wouldn't be so negative...
