I remember that blazer too 

 Wonder how Mchale will handle the point guard situation, maybe brooks will play the 2 sometimes with lin being the primary ball handler and brooks spotting up and getting screens..

The Houston Rockets are winning and looking scary, despite being the youngest and least experienced team in the NBA:

Maaannn, OKC putting it on them Fakers tonight!!

Hopefully OKC can pull through with the "Win" and that will make the Fakers 3 1/2 back behind us..

I dont know if it's a "lock" for the playoffs yet, but Im hoping the Lakers start to crumble again and Jazz keep slipping

Need Golden State to lose as well..

Need Golden State to lose as well..

to be honest I think the Rockets have their best chance against the Spurs instead of OKC and LAC so maybe it's a good thing if they end up 8th...

Pippen would still be downtown catching DWI's.

 

[blackxme]

I'm just happy that this team is relevant again, I grew tired of having to talk about the Texans 24/7, give that **** a rest :x

Honestly I think no matter who they face the Rockets will get beat in 6 games. But a 6th seed just feels better *shrugs*

 

[Peep Game]

I do wanna see how far this team can go whether its 8th seed or 6th seed. Sometimes this team looks just like a rookie inexperienced team, miserable to watch. And other times they look like world beaters who can match up with anybody. So I just wanna see what happens regardless of who it is, just to see how this playoff run looks with this group, which adjustments they make from game to game, etc.

34-25 Mavericks after one. Rocket defense was poor -- Dallas hit 15-21 shots (71.4%). Harden leads Rockets w/ 7p. Lin 5p-3a.

Jonathan Feigen ‏@Jonathan_Feigen

Dallas shoots 71.4 % in first quarter, beating Rockets down the floor, getting in paint easily. Bad defense nothing new. This is worse.

Kids coming up huge again. Robinson blocks a Marion shot and rebounds a Dirk miss. Harden 3 puts Rockets up, 104-102, 3:41 left.

Robinson with great defense, I like it
