    Will the Rockets ever learn that you can't leave superstar veteran players open behind the three point arc for 10 seconds at a time, and expect to win games. That Kobe three at the half says it all. This seems to happen all the time. The Rockets bet on good shooters missing wide open shots. How long will it be before they start defending those shots? It is getting pretty annoying.

    And they do it again at the end of the third quarter. Everyone in the world knew Rider was gonna shoot the 3 and sure enough they let him just shoot it wide open. Our Rockets have a problem closing each quarter.

    At least with Shaq out they might have chance.

    Funny how the winning Margin was 6 points, I don't know when a player is supposed to wise up and become a veteran, but I can't wait, because right now, Steve and Cuttino are not playing smart at all.
