Game Thread 13: Rockets @ Grizzlies 20 Nov 2015

vs.

Time: 7:00 PM CDT Friday, November 20th
Location: Memphis, TN - The Grindhouse
Record: 5-7

Game 2 of the J.B. Bickerstaff era. The last game showed the same problems for most of the game until Houston turned it on in the 4th and pulled out an OT win. Don't expect that kind of finish against the big Grizzlies if they come out slow and complacent again.

J.B's first move as Head Coach was to start Jason Terry over Ty Lawson. The other starters remain the same. As of right now Beverley is not expected to play, and Motiejunas and Dekker are out for a while longer.

Go Rockets!

He's still been in the League since he was 18 and has many miles and a touchy back. I don't have a problem with some limits considering Capela is a beast.

That said, I'm glad to see him playing too. This is a big game for this team trying to get their **** together.

My sig is still Kyle Lowry!

I'm all in favor of smart minutes management, but as of right now the Rockets cannot play it safe. The Grizzlies are a big team and the Rockets are still trying to find their groove.

But I did just hear that Randolph isn't playing.

I like the change the J.B. put in place starting Terry ahead of Lawson. Hopefully the dynamic continues to gel tonight.

Harden starting off right!

Just watched the first episode of the new Bob and David show and it reminded me of why I loved Mr. Show so much.

I hope the Rockets don't make me regret switching over to watch them instead!

Go Rockets!

Rockets and Texans sucking....at least I knew the Texans wouldn't be great

I was honestly quietly expecting us to be up their with gsw for first in the west

I can't even be upset tonight.

It appears that this is the new Rockets basketball. Best get used to it.

Need Bev back desperately. Having Terry or Lawson in the whole game is killing us

Let's look at the positives here: at least they are not losing by almost 20 at home!

Nice change of pace.
