Loss to Bucks exposes Rockets' defense woes

Via Fox Sports Houston  |  January 26, 2012
HOUSTON The defensive results weren't glowing, but they were enough of a component in the Rockets' seven-game winning streak that complacency took hold of a roster far from accomplished defensively. And, for an added measure of hubris, the Rockets gained an unexpected edge when the Bucks lost center Andrew Bogut late in the first quarter, and with him any perceived threat...

Rockets GM Feeling Better After Rough Start

Via Crossover Chronicles  |  January 27, 2012
The Houston Rockets were in a storm of uncertainty at the beginning of the season. They thought they had acquired Pau Gasol in a cap-clearing move that would have sent Kevin Martin and Luis Scola to New Orleans. When the trade was rescinded, everyone seemed joyous that the Lakers did not get Chris Paul and disgusted that the Hornets did not get the deal they worked on. Did anyone...

Houston Rockets: Five Disturbing Trends

Via Rant Sports  |  January 27, 2012
The Houston Rockets’ seven-game winning streak was extinguished by, of all teams, the lowly Milwaukee Bucks on Wednesday night in a 105-99 defeat. Despite center Andrew Bogut’s early-game ankle break, the Bucks rode 20-point efforts from both Brandon Jennings and Stephen “Action” Jackson to a victory that could have looked a lot more lopsided without some...

Video: Painting Yao Ming with a basketball as a brush

Via Ball Don't Lie  |  January 24, 2012
There are few better adjectives to describe a great basketball player than "inspirational." If an athlete is truly great, he makes other people want to accomplish great things themselves. Where people take that newfound sense of purpose is anyone's guess — at some point you just need to accept other people's personal eccentricities. So, as you watch this video...

Video: Painting Yao Ming portrait using basketball as brush

Via Pro Basketball Talk  |  January 24, 2012
I find this fascinating — a woman paints a portrait of Yao Ming, in Rockets red (or China red, if you prefer), using a basketball as a brush. It’s technically impressive, and a good portrait. All sorts of questions here. Why? Is it better to use a synthetic ball because the paint adheres better than…

HOUSTON (AP) -- Stephen Jackson and Brandon Jennings each scored 20 points, Ersan Ilyasova had a career-high 19 rebounds after Andrew Bogut sprained his left ankle, and the Milwaukee Bucks snapped an 11-game losing streak in Houston with a 105-99 victory over the Rockets on Wednesday night. Bogut left in the first quarter and did not return, but Milwaukee hit a season-high 14 shots...

The Houston Rockets will not be wearing the Worst Uniforms Ever next season

Via Ball Don't Lie  |  January 25, 2012
From the very reputable Clutch from Clutchfans.net: Just a heads up ... I was told today the Rockets will not be wearing their blue pinstriped uniforms (1995-96 to 2002-03) as throwbacks next season. Maybe it was being kicked around as an idea (don't know), but it's not happening. Goodness, gracious, sakes alive. It was touch and go there, for a while, but things are...
