i like you chuck hayes but i like winning more Stories - The Dream Shake
For the record: Jordan Hill is pretty good.
(because I still do not understand the Terrence Williams trade at all... here is me switching gears) Well, I hope Rick Adelman was awake during last night's game. Especially this part. Though since Jordan Hill actually got extended playing time... I doubt that Coach Sleepy was. 23 minutes, 4-8...
Counterpoint: Chuck Hayes' supposed "star" performance last night that really wasn't
During the Rockets game last night, Lee and I constantly exchanged texts about how Chuck Hayes was killing us on offense and that his defense (while good) was not anywhere close to being enough to make up for his uselessness at the scoring end. The Rockets did manage to escape with a 104-96...
Rockets/Lakers: Five Random "Opening Night" thoughts
1. Damn you, Steve Blake. Damn you. You know I'm one of your biggest fans, but come on. That was just mean. Once you released that shot, I knew it was in. Kobe might have had doubts... the Laker fans that didn't leave might have had doubts... Rick Adelman was busy dreaming about...
Hmmm, so maybe this "run and gun" offense might actually work in the NBA?
I have been on record for a few months now in saying that the 2009/10 Rockets will win no more than 35 games this year. And I'm sticking by that statement for the moment. I'm also sticking to my proclaimation that Luis Scola will be a 20/10 player this year and a borderline all-star. For he's a...
A Word of Advice for Kyle Lowry
Hi, Kyle. Welcome to the team. Just to help you out, here's a helpful bit of advice: DO NOT PASS TO THIS MAN!! Thank you. And, again, welcome aboard.
Welcome back, Carl Landry!!!
Carl Landry - oh, how we missed you!Yes, we did manage to win the first five games of the seven that you missed. And we were all introduced to Mike Harris in your unexpected absence. And Luis Scola is still the resident starting badass PF. And the Rockets are still on pace to make the playoffs and...

Hey, Chuck, Coach wants to see you
Rockets beat Seattle 96-89. Yao leads the way with 30 points and 17 rebounds. Oh, and 4 blocks, too. Cause he's beastly like that. Tracy hobbled along to 17 points 6 rebounds and 5 assists - a pretty strong showing for a guy who is clearly still hurting. I'll be nice and not talk about how he's...
Free Luis Scola?
Not to steal any ideas or concepts and especially not trademarks from the guys over at FreeDarko (for my vocabulary just is not expansive enough to compete)...but the Rockets need to free Luis Scola. Now. When the trade with San Antonio was made over the summer, whereby we acquired the rights to...
Rockets/Blazers - the one where Rick Adelman gets outcoached. Badly.
First of all -- great, great clutch shots by both Brandon Roy (twice) and Yao Ming. That ending sucked considering I am a Rockets fan. But I appreciate good basketball and true highlight plays when I see 'em. That was a classic (stomach-punch) ending to a heavily contested game.The game overall,...
