CAREFUL! You might be getting a Ryan Anderson Newsletter in the mail as an official fan club member.. You don't want that do you? None of us want that.
That feeling when you look at the boxscore and Harden has over 35 pts on over 50% shooting, cp3 has more than 10 assists, and everyone else is at or close to double digit scoring. Pretty much what we were hoping for when we got cp3, an overall better, more efficient team. Exciting stuff. Can't wait to see how we fare against better defensive teams, but hope that we destroy the lakers and Lonzo by 30 seeing that I'll be there live haha.
If the first qtr of the season is actually who we are as a team, then this is the best Rocket's team we have ever had.
Awesome performance overall, but the backcourt in particular. Harden has clearly improved and Paul is incredible in this role. I think Paul may be able to help Hardens passing be even better, feels like Harden's bounce passes have been real nice lately.
Celtics lost at home to the Pistons. Rockets/Celtics now even in the loss column. Any sane NBA expert will have the Rockets #1 in their power rankings if we don't lose this week (and no reason to think we should).
ego is in a deep shooting slump. he'll and/or cp3 will have to shoot better and we'll have to play much better defense to beat the pacers
The Spurs though, quietly just 1 loss behind the Warriors. We must keep full throtle until the end, let's put up a fight for the 1st seed. Sill a long shot, obviously, but maybe we can open a cushion with the way we've been playing. We may also win the tiebreaker against the Warriors, "just" need one win in the last two games, both at home (not that it's such a great advantage). Well, one game at a time, as long as we keep on rolling, anything is possible. PS: sorry @DreamShook I now I'm being reckless. Beard and CP3 got me infatuated. I can't help myself.
Harden, CP3, & Co has been using the 4th quarter of games as practice and shootaround for the next game
