    AB, Scola, Budinger, Ariza are all jittering with shots. We really need an all star. This team can't shoot well without one.

    teams are just putting even when contested. could be opponents thinking the rockets are a lottery team so they can play it loose and can make those kind of shots?..

    I wish he was, he would have been great on the fast break. He could just jump over everyone for the dunk.

    I never thought we were !!!! I accepted a long time ago that we were probably lottery bound. To me I will love and watch the Rockets no matter what ! If T-Mac comes back and is his old self then we squeeze into the playoffs but if not we get a chance at the # 1 pick. I'm not gonna expect much but enjoy what good the Rockets give us. We just don't have the talent of other teams even Golden State.

    Even though Ariza has scored, I still hate the way he is playing. He could be a lot better if he remembered he isn't going to be creating for anyone. It's killing me watching him do this, absolutely destroying me inside. lol

    Rockets decided to stop playing at the end of the half.

    It really seems that way. We are definitely lacking size and it shows. They are killing us in the paint. When Yao was there our opponents are always thinking twice before entering the paint and of course on the offensive end he's always drawing double teams which creates openings for our players.

    Well Im alluding to the constant criticism of McGrady for "dominating" the ball. This motion offense was supposed to superior, but to me it looks like less open shots, more easy transistion buckets for the other team, etc.

    Fatigue is setting in. The result of playing at a fast tempo on the second night of a back-to-back.

    What I'm not likeing is Brooks dribbling into a crowd where they strip the ball and absolutely no defense outside Hayes. Also, if Scola can't be his old self then this Rockets team is really in trouble because he is being looked at to score a lot of points for the Roxs this year ......

    The paint is not really the problem right now. The Warriors are just making jumpshot after jumpshot. Scola and Landry seem to still be in preseason mode.

    Ariza, Landry, and Scola are all undisciplined defensive players. They may play hard, but they don't play smart.

    There's no excuse for getting outrebounded by the freaking Warriors. And there's really no excuse for Scola and Landry not to take advantage in the post when guarded by wings. Even rookie Davie Andersen was able to do that.
