    Rockets do a very good job of not losing to teams they shouldn't lose to, but they are not good enough to beat the other 4 or 5 top teams in the West. They will get bounced 4-1 in the second round.

    Let the smart assness begin.

    Pretty much just need a big man who can rebound. Like Dwight Howard.

    The Rockets win this game handily if they care to rebound. DMo is reverting back to his old softest-dude-in-the-league self. Jones is improving for sure, but still can't consistently hang with elite bigs.

    Dwight would give us a consistent rebounder. It's completely obvious that's what we need right now.

    bigs kills us on boards, not just elite bigs, any sizable big make Dmo look like a high schooler going for rebounds

    We won't last in the playoffs without dwert, and when James Harden shrinks like he does in the second half, we are pretty much a d league team

    Rockets are pretty subpar against playoff teams, nothing new...

    To be honest, if we have Dwight, we win that game easily. And then the knee-jerk thread doesn't start.

    If Dwight plays, the Rockets win this game. The Rockets got beat because they didn't have everything Dwight provides.

    Playoff teams have good coaches to maximize their talent and the coaches routinely out coach our pathetic joke of a coach in McHale

    Let's be honest on why Morey utterly failed to bring us a starting quality pg. No excuses. At least 5 other teams got it done. If I was a season ticket holder and had access to one of those special VIP parties, this is what I would ask of Morey.
