    Anyone notice Hibbert was on the court in crunch time? What a terrible coaching decision by the Pacers. No one could guard Hibbert on our team. He was beasting Miller all game.

    Now that's the Rockets team I remember seeing from last season! Still with a little bit of flaws but that defense was superb. WIN BABY!!!!!!!

    Miller and Lowry are the clear MVPs of this game


    great to see Lowry play like we all know and remember him


    but seriously that last shot ugh DO NOT take those anymore Kyle!!


    I will give him a slide tonight they won and he played his ass off and probably was tired. If he is now 100% thats the next step for Kyle, to get his conditioning back to 100%

    The NBATV crew were bashing the coach and his late game decisions. Basically wondering how the Pacers lost that game. They also thought the last play where Granger cut under for a 3 was very stupid.

    There was some very curious coaching, with 15 secs left you can go for a quick two and foul, then go for the desperation 3.

    You guys are forgetting Battier again!

    +18, FOUR blocks, and held Granger to a very mediocre game.

    Battier also played 40 minutes, far more than anyone else on the team.

    I said it in the game thread. Battier won the game for us.

    Agreed. Some CRUCIAL stops in crunch time by Shane.

    Yes, I will give Battier props for his defense tonight. Actually shut his man down.

    LOL! I will give Battier credit but Lowry won us that game its obvious. Hill played more minutes like he should have and Miller went off while Martin made big fourth quarter shots.

    When your D sucks this bad I'm so happy for Lowry's contract! His last shot was so-so .. no movement from the rest of the guys. As long as you can defend its ok.. unlike Scola.. I could care less how many points he puts up everynight... But I think his D (or lack thereof) isn't noticed when you have some good defenders on the team and Scola doesn't have to cheat off his man like 30 feet.

    It's easier when he doesn't have to constantly help.

    Rockets always play to their level of competition meaning, how good and bad their enemies are, they aways matched it ..... proven by all their games except the Puppies game ... wire to wire ..

    Plz come one dont start Brad > Miller after just one game .... hes out for revenge against his old teams, always good to play against former team..

    His first team too, he played there with reggie, ron mercer, ron artest and Tinsley .

    Glad we got the win with the reemergence of Klow after his last game ....

    Phew am glad that they didnt go of for another 54 points and Darren Collison not having a monster games against us (point and assist wise) like when he was with the Hornets .
