The Houston Rockets are among the worst defensive teams in the NBA, and coach Kevin McHale doesn't think talking is a solution.

Having Dwight Howard back in the lineup should help.

After McHale called out the Rockets for talking too much, they'll try to avoid their longest losing streak of the season Monday night against the visiting Boston Celtics.

Houston (4-6) is surrendering an average of 108.3 points while allowing opponents to shoot 47.0 percent from the floor and 36.9 from 3-point range.

"We gotta get on the same page," McHale said.
