Ruminations from the bench - by Joey Dorsey

idle thoughts and a fake (hypothetical?) conversation between Joey Dorsey and Coach Rick Adelman to discuss reasons behind Joey Dorsey not getting any playing time for the Rockets.

our contribution to Kobe Bryant Blog Day - the similarities between Kobe and Maverick are just too striking. Kobe feels the need, the need for speed!

To get the proper perspective on what is now a SEVENTEEN game winning streak - we go straight to the voice of authority. Chef .

Rockets blow a big lead against Sacramento... escape with a last second 3- point shot from Novak... and maintain the winning streak. Inconceivable! (though I'm not sure that word means what I think it means)

The Rockets would have beat the Bulls in the 1993 NBA Finals. It's true.

Turnovers suck

grungedave grungedave posted 1/25/2008 from thedreamshake.blogspot.com

Rafer Alston does not learn from his mistakes. Unless he makes the same one six times in the same game.

Rockets on a four game winning streak, most recently dispatching the New York Knicks (in NY). Yao with a vicious gorilla dunk on Malik Rose being the highlight of the game. Rockets go for five in a row on Friday!

the Houston Rockets. Married... with Children characters. Yeah, of *course* T-Mac would be Al Bundy. But who would Rafer be?

Rafer is about as consistent as Eli Manning

grungedave grungedave posted 1/8/2008 from thedreamshake.blogspot.com

The Houston Chronicle published an article today praising Rafer Alston's "improvement" and his impact on the supposedly more consistent Rockets. It's a total puff piece and horribly inaccurate... I had to call them out.

It has been 15 years to the day since the Houston Oilers allowed the Buffalo Bills to complete the greatest comeback in NFL history. "35-3" will always bring up sad memories to me now.

There are no moral victories

grungedave grungedave posted 1/3/2008 from thedreamshake.blogspot.com

Rockets lose to the Celtics 97-93 after a valiant comeback after being down as much as 20 points in the first quarter. KG and the referees too much for Yao and the gang in the end.

Free Luis Scola?
Free Luis Scola?

grungedave grungedave posted 1/2/2008 from thedreamshake.blogspot.com

Luis Scola was a prized offseason pick-up for the Houston Rockets. But the team has stumbled to a 14-15 start and the heavily-hyped foreigner has yet to get significant playing time. Why? The Rockets could certainly use more of the skills he brings to the court.

The Rockets lose to Golden State on New Year's Eve. In the process they create (or at least stumble upon) a formula for how not to play winning basketball. It heavily involves Rafer Alston.

Rockets v. Raptors game recap - the Rockets run Adelman's motion offense successfully. They get into a groove without T-Mac and beat a potential playoff team convincingly.

With all the discussion of a Kobe trade now apparently in the past... what about McGrady? He's been a disappointment, as have the Rockets in general. What can the Rockets reasonably expect if they did make him available? Multiple options presented.
