    Rockets were +8 on the glass in the 4th quarter.

    Not coincidentally...the Rockets won the quarter by 9.

    Rebounding matters. Lineups with centers aren't bad. Small ball is fine, but doing it for 48 minutes is dumb. Game didn't need to be that close.

    This is it... We're officially OFFICIALLY in the smalliest balliest era. Get comfortable. Throw your Hartenstein memorabilia away, it's worthless now.

    I agree. Harden is a ball stopper but on the flipside the best iso player on the planet....literally living and dying by the man.

    Got super lucky pulling this one out in the end, looks like Harden is finally back, Russ picked it up in the 2nd and thankfully BMac was on fire today or this would have been another one of those bad losses we shouldn’t have. nice to get this one, but this small ball **** is flukey right now not something i feel comfortable with at all ...which means Mike will keep soing it. Good luck on your new team Clint.

    This game probably bummed Doris our big time that b****

    That being said, Zion had a fantastic game. The only real negative was the 3 turnovers. Can he stay healthy though?

    haven't seen @Williamson for a while. Coincidence? I think not.

    Trade off of going small is that we can generate more steals and create turnovers. Since we won turnover battle by 14, technically we only got out rebounded by 6. Not bad.

    "Be healthy & continue to keep our good spirit up. We'll be alright."

    Where is the chemistry with Russ?

    Not where we want it to be but that's a good thing because when we hit our stride, it's gonna be pretty scary. We're still trying to find it & we will.

    (If James isn't worried, @Os Trigonum isn't worried.)

    Super Bowl?

    Niners.

    ...as he wipes his pits and tosses the towel to a fan. (or was that his ma?)
    GROSS!

    Chill out. Doris was fine. You guys are trippin... Doris is the only one that can pick Hartenstein out of a lineup out of all the broadcasters.

    The last time PJ Tucker scored 10 points was the 22nd of December
