GREAT win tonight. Keep this up Rockets. These next three games are VERY winable. Kyle Lowry was awesome tonight.

Rockets are so much more versatile and play much better TEAM defense without Battier.

Courtney Lee eating up his new role a the spark off the bench.

Dragic can handle the ball and finish at the rim. Has to learn to not pick up cheap fouls.

Patterson will be a starter in the league in the next 3 years.

I think Dragic will get better once he learns the offense.

That really was domination on every level.

Aldridge is so soft and we took complete advantage of him. He got frustrated and couldn't even hit his FT's.

They were forced to rely on Gerald Wallace and their third tier players to score, which is a win for the Rockets no matter how you cut it.

Some more observations about the Rockets..

1. Chuck Hayes has become a player. He is not only one of the most respected defensive centers in the league, but he has come so far offensively. He is playing more athletic than he ever has, and he is showing that he is a great passer.

2. Kevin Martin is unstoppable right now. He missed three WIDE OPEN 3's which would have ended the game at halftime.. but other than that he did what he wanted.

3. Kyle Lowry is playing like a top 10 PG in the league right now. He is controlled, making crisp passes that set up his teammates perfectly, and hitting open shots. Cant ask for much more.

4. Buddinger finally looks like hes not looking over his shoulder. He has confidence and he is letting his athleticism take over. Its fun to watch.

5. Where has Jordan Hill gone? I understand that Patterson is the more polished player at this point, but Jordan Hill hasn't looked horrible. I find it strange that he isn't getting ANY minutes. Is he nursing an injury?

the clippers are playing very well tonight - hoping the rockets can pull it out

i really like that courtney lee, patterson, and budinger are getting more playing time. they can explode on offense at times and patterson will be really good in the near future

Agreed, the rockets have gotten the short end of the scheduling stick for a couple of years recently. I believe have the most back to back games too.

Like the Lakers and Heat, the Rockets have the fewest number of 4 games in 5 days during the season (1).

Rockets on a tear right now. Need to keep it going.

Lowry, Martin, Lee, Buddinger, Patterson, and Dragic are all playing lights out.

i love seeing the way chase has responded to being the starter. he looks much more confident and assertive.

and i'm also glad courtney lee is getting to play more. that trend needs to continue.
