    And it is bound to be tried again. One preseason game does not a season make.

    Yep. That is what I thought too. Rodman didn't put up much of jump shots too.

    Howard's best game so far. It's not a bad lineup.

    You're right, but they got fluke, Perkins was injured by Kobe.

    Big difference between getting in done in the regular season and getting it done in the playoffs, just ask the Denver Nuggets. And in case everyone forgot, we started Asik and Greg Smith in game 1 vs OKC and got blown out by 29 points.

    twin towers rockets opening day #anewage lets GO !!!!!!! after watching games last night I see how having the opportunity to throw this line up out there can really be beneficial l to a team’s success. Clippers pf and center could do anything against a small center or pf I can only imagine how they will react to big howard and asik downlow !!!!!

    had to bump this, this is big news also !! s/o to the OP
