When you have no shotblocker on the team and your guards are terrible defensively, this will happen from time to time. You have to take the bad with the good.

That said, Brooks has not played well in either game this season. He had decent stats yesterday but terrible defensive lapses and he killed the offense in the 4th quarter yesterday.

If you have a 30 FTA advantage you cannot lose that game

Morey needs to turn some of our assets into a shotblocker

Otherwise there will be too many nights like last night and tonight

Score a ton of points, but give up just a few more

After two games I want to see..

1. Lowry getting A LOT of playing time when he gets back.

2. Start developing Jordan Hill. He is our best chance at a shot blocker.

3. More Chase Buddinger when we are down in games.

4. Less playing time for Battier. While he might be the smartest player on the court, he is lacking in athleticism big time.

5. No Courtney Lee and Kevin Martin at the same time. The offense does NOTHING.

Don't be too down on Battier for not being able to guard Curry or especially Ellis... if Ellis is on no one can do anything, he wants to take the type of shots that you usually try to force.

Was at a wedding

Didn't get to see game 3

Somebody who was watching please update me on how we looked

Looked like another fourth quarter collapse in the boxscore

I didn't watch all of the game and from the little I saw, Yao Ming is a liability. He's not agressive enough on defense to have an impact and slows the offense down. If he loses the ball one more time in the post or gets it slapped away from him, I'm going to start punching babies.

I shot the game. What do you want to know? Yao does not fit in, but I've been saying that since before he got hurt.

Rockets collapse started in the third. They got frustrated and started jacking up bad shots and Adleman didnt stop them.

Couldn't buy a three.

Game 4

Gotta have a win tonight


Yao Ming is an excellent passer, that was a beautiful feed to Martin

Does anyone else think Yao's jumper has looked a little off thus far this year

Those 10-12 footers were almost automatic, he's missed quite a few of them thus far this year though

Our defense is atrocious

I'm almost to the point where I'd like to see Brooks traded for a shot blocker/rebounder

I think Lowry could easily handle the starting gig and Courtney Lee could play a 10-12 minutes a game there.

Jordan Hill is really reminding me of Stromile Swift during his tenure here. He seems completely lost everytime he gets on the floor. Ton of athleticism, very little basketball IQ.

The Rockets just get sloppy down the stretch while the other team's stars always control the end of the game

Yao is such a pansy. You're 7 foot 6 and you're letting people out rebound you. Another blown lead by the Rockets.

GD


This is ridiculous

We have led at half every f***ing game


We are anti clutch
J. Walter Weatherman
How long do you want to ignore this user?
I wouldn't either. I'd say it's more on our refusal to show on the pick and roll for whatever reason. It's just frustrating to watch someone who should be dominating be so un-aggressive.

The rockets have been anti clutch since 1996

the 4th quarter is awful for all houston teams

The game is over

0-4 Rockets.

Honestly, I am ready for the Adleman era to end. His coaching won't take us far.

Shot blocker/rebounders are a lot more rare than undersized volume shooters that don't play defense. You're going to have to give up something better than Brooks.
