    Can't be bothered to look it up right now, but didn't one of the Rockets championship teams have a really rocky start to the season before they won it all?

    The 95 team that traded for Drexler midseason. Small adjustment.

    No one ever started 0-3 loss by 20 each game.

    Was at Toyota tonight and have to say that 3rd quarter defense had the place rockin.

    Rockets undefeated in games I have been to over the last 3 years makes me think I might have to break the bank and get there more often this season.

    And for those who doubted our man Harden... Dude is too damn good to be held down long.

    Agree? Disagree? I can't say I noticed, but this has nervoused me slightly.

    I tend to agree. I thought he played well, but he definitely looked like he wasn't full speed.

    It's time to accept that Dwight simply isn't going to be truly healthy, and he is very much past his prime. He's still very important and absolutely a difference maker, but this is going to be a long season of Dwight "dealing with some minor issues" and "having minor setbacks".

    Why bother to break the bank? Show Morey your ticket receipts and there's spot for you as a Rockets Rowdy. :grin:

    Please no!

    Where is that Doctor who magically treated TMac's back? Time to give him a call to have a checkup.

    As long as they get to the playoffs. That's all that matters.

    Has any team claimed "Steal City" yet? The forced turnovers had me giddy all night. If you are that disruptive every night, it makes it hard for the other team to get in a rhythm. Literally everyone that played tonight got at least one steal.

    Dwight looked stiff, and definitely was not jumping as high as normal (though converting on the alley oops).

    One thing... he definitely was working with someone on FT shooting. Other than the annoying flex of his shoulders he had a good routine and form on his shot... and for the most part stayed with it on every shot.

    looked like he was in a bit of pain after a thunder player jumped on his back in the first half. he even took a walk along the baseline for a while before heading for the FT's
