16-19

The Rockets record is 16-19.

OK, tonight is the first of two back-to-back games against the Jazz. First one is in SLC and starts at 8:00 PM CDT.

Think I might start a new book and get to bed early tonight.

Go Rockets!

7th seed could very well be determined by these two games. And Utah is missing 4 of their best 5 players to injury.

Out starting PF Favors
Starting Center Gobert
Starting Point Guard Dante Exum
6th man SG sometimes starter Alex Burks

Houston needs these two, and Utah wants these two to stay afloat. Should be a good couple of games unless Houston doesn't even show up.

I cant imagine Dwight not going off on Whithey (signed on a temp contract) and Plies (rookie overseas player who has mostly played in D league)
Utahs pf are a rookie and Booker,

Wow! I didn't realize you guys were so banged up!

Rockets are going without Motiejunas tonight, but I think that everyone else is playing.

I don't even want to watch this game but I guess I hate myself because I know I will. Sigh.

Switching every pick and roll no matter how weak the pick is killing the defense. JBB sucks man.

Dwight having another disastrous defensive game. You can see Trevor is upset with him. If Dwight is bad defensively he's almost dead weight

Fire JBB, trade Dwight while he has value, trade Jones while he has value, just get Brewer off the team and let KJ play.

Why can't every team in Houston get on track and make the playoffs together....Stros and Texans get on track after the Rockets self destruct

Agree with all points

Dwight not because he's useless but because he's going to cost too much

Fire JBB, I can't believe that I'm saying this but we should have kept Josh Smith...

This is beyond frustrating. We need somebody to play the same role Ron artest played for us. It can rub some players wrong but somebody gotta light a fire under this team and hold guys accountable for this play.

Hopefully that incident with the Jazz fan will light a fire under the Rockets to finish off this game.

Harden goes to Utah and thinks that he's Stockton?

Stop that bounce-pass!
