    Rockets bricking tons of open shots now. Defense is still terrible, but at least they have stopped scoring.

    I do not. But I'm optimistic that Stotts will either improve or be fired at some point in the next year, and I'd be fine with either. Therefore, I still root for wins.

    Id like to see Harry in this game doing some if what Wood is doing. Nurk and Kanter are to slow.

    15 FTs on 16 fouls isn't that uncommon. 30 FTs on 16 fouls is out of this world.

    26 points score but only 3 came with assist. But we now out rebounding them through 3 quarters.

    They traded for him. And as bad as he can look, he's still better for the team than Mario was.

    He's had 9 seasons. Lol He's not improving. We know what he is by now.

    I'd rather keep losing until we have new coaching and can be a threat in the playoffs with a lower seeding, ala Miami Heat.
