Only down by 1 after an otherwise huge pile of fecal matter of a first half, I'll take it.

Also agaisnt a team that collapses every second half like clockwork

This is the type of games where Ryno needs to step up.

Swiss and Splash, get well soon guys.
We watched the tragedy unfold. We did as we were told, we bought and sold. It was the greatest show on Earth...but then it was over.

First game in a while now that I truly don't feel they have any chance of making a run to get back in it.

:(

It will be impressive if they can pull this one off. Minny just wants it way more.

Still wish we pulled this one out...hopefully they all rest up and come out swinging against Memphis...so far in 3 games I've gone to they're undefeated, hopefully that stays the same friday

It's hard to win every game but the bench is subpar without Gordon and having to force Harrell/Nene start with Capela being injured. Need another guy who can really supplement the bench, whether it be offense or defense.

Just another wing who could shoot would be huge. Hollis Thompson is out there

If it makes anyone feel better the Rockets lost their 10th game on the 41st game of the year. Lost their tenth game on the 15th game last year. Quite an improvement!
