KG was guarding Chandler and vice versa almost all night.

If you watched games instead of blindly hating, you wouldn't make moronic statements all the time.

Well, then he SHOULD have guarded West after it was apparent that no one else could.

AFter all, isn't West a PF....JUST like GArnett?

Shouldnt Perkings be guarding Chandler at center?

I remembered being bashed terribly hard for saying Houston's hot, but they would lose a game, come back to earth and drop down below 4th. It's actually starting to look like they could be one of the lower standings.

I believe he had a streak of 38 consecutive made this season so this is no coincidence. I actually expected him to shoot a good percentage tonight after a 6-11 showing (including an airball) the previous game.

Lets see , we lost to the best team in the league.
Then to NO on the road on a 2nd night of a back 2 back , then beat GS on the road , then lost to PHX on the road on a 2nd night of a back 2 back.
This ended a stretch of 6 games in 9 nights for us against elite teams , any team will struggle in this kinf of stretch and 2-3 against contenders , in back 2 back some of them and on the road is not that bad.

I'm just saying that the Rockets were hot, but without Yao that they weren't going to remain in the top 4 after they started playing some good and healthy teams. People were barking at me, saying I was a hater, like if we were back in grade school.

Thecnically we are still top 4 saince we have the 4th best record.
And IMO no Rockets fans who is not a homer thought and said we gonna finish a 1st seed or something , we still have a chance to be 3rd seed.
We are just 0.5 a game behind PHX , we have an easier schedule and we still need to play them one more time at home.

5 games in 6 days, against lakers, celtics, hornets, warriors and phoenix. I'd say they did a decent job by pulling a 2:3. I wouldn't be surprised if they go 9:3 the rest of the way considering their remaining schedule has 8 games they "are supposed to win", and even the disbelievers of the 22w streak have to agree they are pretty good at winning games they "are supposed to win". A 56W team would be in top 4, IMO.

Then Chandler would've got an overabundance of offensive boards and alley-oops.
My Starting 5:

PG: Allen Iverson
SG: Paul Pierce
SF: Kevin Durant
PF: Kevin Garnett
C: Patrick Ewing

Rockets got an easy schedule from this point forward. Hopefully they can pull up seedings and win some games.
