    This team wasn't doing much when he was playing either

    i think thats a small piece of it now but the team fall started when zion went down or whenever the team knew zion wasnt coming back anytime soon... and i do think jose energy would have helped us win a couple of games that we loss..

    Jonas' psychology is such that he needs to be involved on offence which generates his energy on defense. The man was feasting in the first three quarters and Rockets' commentators could not shut up about his presence on the defensive end. JV got only one shot in the fourth?! BI and MC went 3/9 in the fourth. Strategically, good things happen on both ends when Pels involve JV. Tactically, though, the opposite happens: JV's inevitable goofs on defense translate into him being cut off on offence which starts the vicious cycle of deteriorating overall play.

    Shaq talks about this a lot. He said if he got ignored in the post on offense then it effected his effort level for the game. Big men have to expend more energy than everyone else to hustle and they want to know that they are doing it for a reason.

    so is this team aiming for play-in game or bust?

    The gods continue to leave the door open. Everyone around them keeps losing and their next 3 games are as easy as it gets.

    Zion back for the next crucial road trip? Of course not.

    I think Zion has been out for the season for a while now.

    Not all rats! Some of them wait for the ship to start sinking to show up.

    They look like they trust each other this quarter. Let’s see how the next one goes.

    +20 at the half that's called redemption.

    Hopefully they'll stick with JV through the whole game, instead of pulling him in the 4th and blowing the game on Friday.

    One stat tells the story of the first half:

    Pels 10-20 from 3, Rockets 3-19.

    Is that where you maintain a double digit lead with under 5 min in the game? super stealth!

    Tired legs, so they are playing defense with their hands and arms. Happens every game.

    Even on the boards this time, 36-36, but Rockets have shot 36FTs to our 16. And made 34 of them.
