    This team is still progressing. I have seen D'Antoni open up his playbook some this past week.

    Ego: Coach, I've never seen so many wide open looks in my life!
    MDA: Keep shooting and I'll keep making them for you.

    We set a club record with 24 made 3s, even though Dekker and Ryno were brick ing enough to build a dang mansion. Just imagine if one of them were one -- easily a NBA record.

    This team must be God send for MDA after going through Melo, Kobe, and Dwight.

    Gordon is just so damn consistent it's crazy. Anderson is way more streaky than I thought he would be but Gordon you can just absolutely count on every night.

    I knew he was a good scorer but his 3 put stroke is ridiculous.

    The Rockets are really messing up the media's narrative about this season being all about the Cavs and Warriors round #3 and Rusell Westbrook averaging a triple double aren't they? I don't think they can keep ignoring what they are doing much longer. Harden probably going "Aight, so they saying Russ is going to win MVP with a 7th seed team? Let me go on an epic win streak and take my team to the #2 seed. Who is the MVP now b^%#$?!" They look like the most dangerous team in the NBA right now and I noticed how D'antoni is completely heartless and wanted to make sure they kept that 20 point lead all the way to the end lol

    Conspiracy theory: The bench unit in the 4th lead by Gordon and Bev let the lead lessen just enough so MDA would put in the starters to get the job done rather than rely on rookies + KJ and Ennis to do it.

    New Pepsi commercial.

    Kid gets the girls number, then takes a sip of his drink. "So this must be what Harden feels like when his teammates hit open 3's.

    Over/Under one mention longer than 3 seconds of Rockets breaking 3 point record at ESPN half time?

    I'm going under.

    Remember how Media ejaculated on the mics when GSW did it?

    The Bestern conference has 4 teams who have hit the 20 win mark now and the East doesn't even have one. Every win is going to be important for us.

    Agreed. Ariza seems more consistent than Ryno

    Game was great, despite Ryno's poor play. He needs to be traded ASAP for a good player/powerforward

    I don't know why you would want to trade him.

    The NBA players respect Anderson's shot. Just having him out there as a tease opens up stuff for other players.
