    ... There are no problems. Rockets are on a road skip. No biggie. It happens to every single team in the NBA at some point. Remember, this is the same Rocket team that started the season, 18-12. Have faith Rockets fans.

    when you lose, you have problems, there is always a reason, things do not just happen.......

    Before the season began, lots of analysts say we lack talent to make a run, and hard working is only going to get you so far and finally it's going to take its toll, it seems they have a clue here.

    our starters are just not that good, both offensively and defensively..... when our bench are not playing great, we struggle........

    Considering were almost tied with the about 3 teams right behind you in the standings it is a biggie, were 1-4 in the last 5 games.

    Especially when you have a superstar at home ready to play :grin:

    The Bobcats are a freaking championship caliber team at home. Their home-road discrepancy is ridiculous.

    A road skip? These games matter. Rockets have to figure out how to close out teams.

    No pain, no gain.

    -Young players will learn
    -Bad players get traded
    -If all else fails, land the lottery

    Right, We are a mediocre team, 40 mil short in starting lineup. Nobody is playing like an all-star at this moment.

    People's expectation become too high as the result of a great start at the beginning of the season.

    losing 5 of our last 6 on the road is cause for some concern.
