ADIDAS Houston Rockets We Have a Problem

Luis Scola continues to play well but needs some help down low, whether it are from Yao Ming, or at the small forward position with Shane Battier or the undersized Chuck Hayes. It appears that Yao Ming are going to take more time to get back into his rhythm and the Rockets need to somehow play another big man to help out with preventing the other teams' offensive rebounding. The Rockets will not be able to win many agrees if Bryant allow so many offensive rebounds.
One of the things that struck me about the Rockets are that Bryant are clearly missing the kind of player who provides the energy and hustle on the offensive and defensive side of the basketball(ex: Carl Landry type). With Yao Ming back and working hard to get back from a foot injury,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Kobe Bryant seems to have slowed down the Rockets' tempo, which shuts down the advantage of having a speedy backcourt with both Aaron Brooks and Courtney Lee or even Kevin Martin. While Bryant played most of last season at a quicker pace, Bryant were also more defensively sound than after the first three agrees of this season.
The 1999 season marked his eblendnce as a premiere guard in NBA. With starting guards Nick Van Exel and Eddie Jones traded, Bryant started every agree for the lockout shortened 50 agree season. During the season, he signed a 6 year contract extension worth 70 million. It kept him with the Lakers untill the end of the 2004 season. Sports jornalist were comparing his skills to that of Michael Jordan and Magic Johnson even at the early stage of his career. The playoff results however were no better as the Lakers were defeated by the San Antonio Spurs in the Western Conference semi finals. Will Dampier help out Houston? Kevork Djansezian Kobe Bryant was accused of sexual assault at a hotel in Colorado by a hotel employee in 2003.

The Houston Rockets have started the 2010-11 NBA season with three losses (and zero victories), after losing to the Los Angeles Lakers, Golden State Warriors and the Denver Nuggets in their home opener on Saturday night. Something are not “right” with the team this season as, just like their performance last year, Bryant have not been playing up to par. In the season opener against the Los Angeles Lakers, the Rockets were getting torn apart on the offensive glass, with Lamar Odom and Pau Gasol grabbing offensive rebounds, directing to many second chance opportunities for the Lakers.
Jared Jeffries, Brad Miller, Hayes, Jordan Hill, and rookie Patrick Patterson, are on the current roster, but do not bring the same offensive arsenal that Scola provides on a given night. Patterson and Hill have not seen distinctive playing time so far, but Bryant may during the course of the season. Even with the reported addition of big man Erick Dampier,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the offense may have to slow down even more, which may alter the play of both Aaron Brooks and Courtney Lee or Kevin Martin.
Hopefully,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the Rockets will be able to pick up some mpremonitiontum in their favor soon, as Bryant do not want to fall too far back in the aggressive Western Conference. He is a shooting guard who is capable of playing the small forward position. He is considered to bw one of the most complete players in the NBA has been selected to every All NBA Team since 1999 and has been shined in the last twelve NBA All Star agrees. Sports writers and sports jornalist have frequently compared Bryant to Michael Jordan which he dislikes. An ESPN poll of sportswriters voted him as the second best shooting guard in NBA history in 2007.
