Yeah, people are acting like this team is worse than it was a week ago when they swapped Cousins and Casspi for Buddy and Galloway.

I will say that we need a better attacker than Holiday. He did have an especially bad game, but I don't think people are giving the Rockets defense enough credit. They didn't make anything easy for the Pels. If you plan to move the ball it will be fine, if you want to run P&R Holiday didn't look good enough to create offense against a tough defense.

All of that. Rockets are good. Pels were nervous/feeling things out.

They need to keep moving (on and off) the ball. Get it to Davis/Cousins in favorable spots and then go from there.

They can't solve the fact that they don't have enough shooting right now for when teams double/sag. At times, they will just have to let it fly and hope a guy like Hill can hit enough. Not great

Defense will take time. Rockets are good. Baby steps when they need wins is a weird spot.
