    Most of all I am just really pleased with myself for realizing that a portmanteau of our new center rotation (CAMby+dalEMBERT) is the same as a delicious French cheese: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camembert

    But lost in an otherwise terrible game last night is the fact that 40 minutes of Camembert (hehe) gave us 20 points on 10-18 shooting and 14 boards, 4 offensive. Most importantly, even on a game where the whole team seemed to have dead legs, the Rockets outrebounded the Suns 48-39. Ok, it was the Suns, but still.

    Looking forward to seeing our team not get crushed on the boards night in and night out, especially after losing to the Clips because they couldn't get a darn defensive rebound in crunch time.

    Now, to find a nickname that ISNT a soft French cheese...

    So you are saying that these two guys are soft, moldy and when over-ripe, contains an unpleasant, excessive amount of ammonia, which is produced by the same microorganisms required for ripening?

    I can't speak for their odor, and what micro-organsims NBA players have that I don't I am not aware (something to do with bone growing perhaps?), but I will say the color is definitely wrong.

    Over-ripe.... now you might be on to something there.
