    I thought he was talking about the other questionable call that wasn't reviewed. It was clearly off Nene, didn't think it was a dispute. I defaulted to the other play that involved Lin.

    It was like the 1 on 3 fast break he tried and ****ed up instead of dribbling out the clock.

    I'd prefer 72-10. Teams with that record win championships.

    Nah, Lin had last touched when he pushed his arm and hand forward.

    Good back and rewatch it. The ball grazes Nene's shorts.

    Lopez got bailed out from the goose egg in the rebound department. Never want to see that guy on our team.

    Liked Eric Gordon's post game interview. They know it was an ugly win and that they have to start playing better. Good mentality to have going forward .

    Don't see how given that the blue print is out on how to beat us, and the fact remains we just are not professional enough to win games that we are supposed to.

    Just ignore the whole 7 game winning streak, those kind of facts aren't important here.

    He also had 6 turnovers and almost zero rebounds and assists. I love Gordon's shooting, but god damn he gotta be more productive in other areas.

    They need to working on their free-throws, specially harden.

    Oh, didn't see it. Didn't affect the outcome, so I'm good.

    Last Play ... Steal by Bev on inbounds ... nothing sucks more for opposing fans, except for an airball the play before

    I think the team as a whole is starting to let the success get the better of them. Keep that underdog mentality and don't take teams for granted!

    The assistant coach who spoke at halftime gave me the impression that they did not consider the Nets a real threat. The only way that can be true is if the Rockets play with the urgency they've played with since Beverley got back. Can't take nights off!

    Nene was being murdered by Lopez even worse than capela. At least capela can roll to the basket or catch an aleyoop.
