Game 56: Rockets @ Suns 2/19/16 

Post#1 » by Mr. E » Fri Feb 19, 2016 10:10 pm

Post-Motie era.

27-28, holding onto the 8th seed. How will this team react after all of the trade deadline drama?

8:30 CDT start time for this one.

Go Rockets!

Josh Smith has been inserted into the starting lineup. Hopefully it's a placeholder until Jones comes back. He's been playing bad but Smith has been worse. Small lineup stopped working, I don't think the big lineup was ever a good idea outside of the 76ers game, so back to traditional

Good to see that the Rockets haven't abandoned their tried & true Cold Spell game plan.

Ty Lawson should not play ever. He's complete garbage now. Smith shouldn't be playing either. He's guarding stretch fours and lost his man approximately 57x that quarter.

Such a shame we couldn't get any 3 and D players at the trade deadline!

When they are clicking this team still looks so good.

It adds to the frustration of this season.

Don't have to play him. Play Terry at the one and give McDaniels minutes at the two

Dwight wasn't great defending the rim but he did an outstanding job cutting off lanes to the hoop which is almost as good. When he does that our defense gets a big boost

Great to see this team playing like this. I hope they can dig down and get the 6 seed.
