    Glad we got the win, not necessarily pleased with a lot of what I saw though. Ariza looked like he was turning a corner on his shot but he's back to shooting terribly. Bev looks awful, I know he played some good defense on Lowry but the entire Raptors team had a bad game tonight as a whole and it didn't seem like they were on top of their game. Terry looks awful. Let's see what Prigioni can do with some of his minutes.

    I do however really love the fact that Terrence Jones is starting to show some improvement in the last couple of games.

    For all this team's faults, that's something they seem to do very well. Avoid 3 game losing streaks. They didn't have one last season til mid-March.

    Good win, against a pretty good team, although Toronto played like crap tonight. (Beat Atlanta last night though).

    Need to steal as many wins as possible till Dwight is back, so this is a good one.

    this is a pretty poor excuse, they played crap because we defended them so great

    Hah hah. I'm not sure about the soccer being helpful about your durability but I can honestly say that futbol will help you in the footwork department.

    All these players thinking practicing being a boxer will help their footwork. Pfft, I say hell to that nonsense. If you want footwork, go and learn to play futbol.

    Rockets played very well defensively, no doubt, but we also were helped by Toronto taking some pretty inexplicably bad shots all night long.

    Either way...it was a good win.

    Slashing to the hoop is Corey strength. Him jacking up 3s is not really his game.

    For people that were making it a point of emphasis, does our bench still suck???

    Bad three pointer percentage, but tonight was a rare night. We actually focused on points in the paint when the threes weren't falling. Brewer had a lot to do with that. McHale actually remembered we aren't a three pointers only team.

    Where are the Prigs highlights?

    I wish Brewer's and Ariza's (when he's actually hitting shots) strengths could be combined into one player.

    Need to make an emphasis on purchasing a Corey Brewer jersey. Tough to say but progressively becoming one of my fav. Rockets ever.

    *Go Rockets*
