ROCKET-TEARS


Cs survived their road trip, must feel great relief, 
Morale is still solid, in their team they've belief!
Word is Rondo might return at the end of this week, 
Versus the Lakers--our curiosity's at its peak.

Rockets first in the league in attempting threes.
Sully is starting--no Bass--with Humphries.
AB FOR THREE! FOR THREE! He can score!
Hump is (still) a beast! Cs are running the floor!

Speaking of Hump, loud dunk coast to coast, 
Of the new guys we might trade, I'd miss him most.
Unlike last game, no 40 points Rockets Q1,
Cs up 8 when it was done!

Rockets were strong at the start of Q2,
Olynyk working the glass, needs to take his shot, too.
Hump with a block! Last two games he had six!
AB great Q1, Q2 Brad had him out of the mix.

Cs 2nd and 3rd free throws not til the end of Q2!
Cs within 9 when it was through.
Cs, sloppy, with turnovers to open Q3,
Where's the Jeff Green we need to see?

Brad imploring the guys to play with some fire, 
It must be fatigue, not lack of desire.
The only C able and willing to score?
Of course, AB--from all over the floor!

Rockets successful, then cute, with the alley-oop, 
Inspector Gadget Crawford trying to help his group.
Rockets made almost half their threes, 
End Q3, within 19 are the Cs.

MarShon sighting--in the D League a good sport.
Welcome Bayless to his new home court!
Bass shooting well, master of the up fake, 
Great D Olynyk, Bayless--plus shots they can make!!

Terrific offense by MarShon Brooks, 
BAYLESS FOR THREE! Great open looks.
Cs went small with MarShon, Bayless, AB,
Cs more aggressive since that awful Q3.

Hack-a-Howard--around 50%--at the end of Q4,
Love watching Bayless (welcome HOME) add to our score!
Cs had considerable shooting woes,
Not Bayless and AB--their determination shows.

Tonight over 100 field goal attempts, not since '98,
If we shot (just?) 50% the game would've been great!
Cs unbelievable spirit,  playing with stamina and heart, 
Still love that pulling together and not apart!
