Tonight the Rockets played the equally bad Orlando Magic in a battle of badness, a battle of draft position. Despite a bright start, at one point notching up an early lead of 14, the Rockets battled back to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. It’s what the team needs to do, but I will admit, it’s not what I want to watch. It’s not what we’re accustomed to as Rockets fans, of course. It’s still better to lose than win right now, except for the weariness of it.
Is Silas coaching to lose? Sometimes it seems like a real question, but I don’t think so.
