    I'm very skeptical, especially after giving up 125 to Charlotte though they have been top 3 in the league since the ASB.

    A bit odd that he's caught rhythm, yet he only took 1 shot in the 2nd half. Guess J.B. didn't put him in the right spots or didn't give any instructions to give it to Dwight. I understand why Howard would be frustrated.

    At this point, Rockets are just a potty mouthed team just spouting off garbage for PR purposes from top to bottom.

    Right from Mauri's "No one would want to face us in the playoffs" and "we have the length to be great defensively" to JBB to Howard and Harden sugar coating things.

    Can't believe a word these guys say. If you do you'll be disappointed with false hopes

    honestly it sounds almost delusional. yes they won a couple of games on the road, but that's what they're supposed to do. They're making it sound like some sort of Man Versus Nature triumph. :rolleyes:

    Fact of the matter is we're still a very very average .500 team sitting in 8th place and not playing up to our considerable potential.

    That's not to say the team can't get hot going into the playoffs and make some noise. But they're not really championship contenders, and honestly, not really good enough to make much noise beyond the first round.

    Haha indeed, sad they have to resort to keeping teams under 110 and it's considered an achievement.

    rockets AND dwight? thats not very groovy, but it is if he would've done a repeat on this season
    but i agree, mediocrity is groovy as f***! bring on the pathetic dumb ass warriors and their bullsht curry hof'er.
    we got harden, the leader of the #swagchamps, and beverley, the most skilled player in the nba according to taco bell.

    Rockets felt groovy after going 3-1, then they mailed-in the first half @CHA and couldn't overcome it.

    Clint Capela was out Saturday night Cle. I guess the flight got back early enough for him to be out past 2 am.
