Post #1 » by **Mr. E** » Thu Dec 17, 2015 9:00 pm

Tonight's game is against the Lakers in LA with a 9:30 CDT start time.

The question for tonight: what is wrong with this team?

Go Rockets!

Can someone tell me how Thornton got his minutes stolen by JET?

I was starting to think the rumors were false but Dwight sure isn't playing like he's happy here. His effort is Harden-esque

I'm not going to assume that I know what is really going on in the minds & the locker room of the Rockets. Right now this team is great for headlines at a point in the sports season that needs them.

It could be way worse than I think, or there may not be as big of issues as we are reading about.

All I can measure them by is what we see on the court.

Howard can't even make a dunk now. Looks like he's trying, but he just can't make it.

Terry took over for Thornton, because Thornton makes no effort on defense. Only Harden is allowed to be a 1 way player.

Rockets missing open threes and the lakers are taking stupid ass shots and draining them.

Soooo is Ariza letting Kobe go off a little bit as a sign of respect or is his defense and lateral quickness really slipping this badly?

I get that he plays no defense but I'd rather play Thornton than play Harden the whole game. Running him raged because he's the only guy who can score. The defense is bad weather Thornton plays or not the only difference is with Thornton they can score. It's not like Lawson is any better. Probably worse actually.

Lawson is God awful man.
