    I WAS in the game thread for the Cavs and Warriors wins though. So it must be a very situational curse:)

    I was impressed with Denver's balance . Seven guys in dbl figures Saturday. They look good. But we weren't real sharp until Harden took over. If we hit our threes like we should, I'd expect a 10-15 pt win..

    He's rushing shots and shooting from too far out, it's not surprising.

    Eric Gordon is getting good shots. He just isn't hitting. Rockets are running that play for him at the top of the key, the shot is there and is wide open. Just missing. In the last game Beverley had 2 wide open short corner 3's. Both misses.

    Rockets right now have the "rep" of good shooters, but the team's shooting is sporadic. Rockets should be better than 15th in the league at 3pt%, even at their volume.

    Rockets won't go far in the playoffs unless they maximize their greatest strength, which is their collection of shooters and floor spacing.

    "Umm....yea....I just got a call from one Admiral Ackbar. He said "It's a trap!" and then I heard what sounded like a "whoosh!!!" and some lasers going off. Then, the line went dead. Umm...yea."

    "And, I'm going to need you all to come in on Saturday. Go ahead and come in on Sunday as well. Mmmkay? Great."

    "And, didn't you get the memo? We're using the new letterhead on the TPS reports. Yea....please use the new letterhead on the TPS reports from now on ya'll. Management wants us using the new letterhead. Mmmkay? Thanks."

    "Ummm...yeeaaaaaaa....thanks, Peterz."

    I am a straight man. But I would probably pop wood if Anderson somehow came out and shot 5-7 from 3. Having him find the range inside TC would be a huge boost going into the playoffs.

    Gotta give props to the team for wanting Harden to win the MVP so bad, they are shooting worst from the 3 to debunk Harden has better teammates than Westbrook
