    Bev literally saved this game on BOTH end of the court. Yet little to no phrase? Sounds about right

    You should definitely get that checked out. Perhaps keep it away from the clubs for a while before you spread anything around.

    Is there any way we can get this spacing for Lawson to operate? It just looks like there are not 8 other players on the court when Lawson operated at the top in Denver. Teams knew not to double team him because of his passing ability and it's human nature to doubt the small guy's ability on the court.

    One reason is we do not have anyone who is a deceptively fast/strong dunker like Fareid/Hickson on the Rockets (until we got Josh). Dwight draws too much attention, so defenders refuse to leave him. Lawson has to be more aggressive and take it in for the lay up to make his life and Dwight's life easier and Dwight as well to make it easier for Lawson. Dwight's ability to catch lobs would kill other teams if Lawson goes in for his shot up until the rotator commits. Lawson also has the hang time to either finish or make the pass at the last second.

    As for Jones, he has hands made of glass and he fumbles passes. His brain reacts faster than his hands/body.

    Teams are being more physical with Lawson and make him beat them more when Dwight is driving with him and double off Josh when he is attacking wit him. He needs to get stronger too.

    It looks like the Rockets are slowly but surely learning how to phree up Lawson.

    Honestly, Dwight can be a better Faried for Lawson...

    Josh can be a better Hickson for Lawson if he can figure out that FT line jumper off the quick pass. It would make their P&R unstoppable.

    Man that was close. But hey I'll take it any day of the week. Lol

    I surely hope we continue to see Ariza twin out there. His better half lol . I never seen Ariza play like he's a Superstar out there.

    The real Harden is back and on a vengeance. 2 assist away from another triple double.

    Capela, Beverley and Thornton had solid games as well.

    This team really know how to keep a fan on the edge of their seat.
