    Capela is freaking awesome. The fact that he can switch onto guys like Leonard and Parker and hold his own is unbelievable to me. Him and Terry were a huge difference at the end.

    Capela won us this game. Those two defensive sequences on Kawhi and Parker at the end were dynamite

    Yes Rocket win fellas. We can't beat anyone when we play this type of defense.

    We lose if he doesn't play. We miss the playoffs if he doesn't play. We get eliminated both years in first round (first year by a sweep and possibly second round 2nd year but a sweep regardless).

    People are so ungrateful. His presence alone changed this game.:confused:

    I think they take the Pelicans seriously. Probably because of Davis, if the other team doesn't have a star player they tend to give no Fs.

    We got some nice signature wins, but also some awful losses. Jekyl and Hyde team.

    Funny thing is when I looked at the odds yesterday we were -4.5. Vegas knows too much...

    Good to see that we still had a switch to flip. For a while there it seemed like there wasn't. But sure enough just as the spiked ceiling was coming down on us, we reached in past all the roaches, millepedes, and preying mantises to grab that switch and turn it, Indiana Jones style. Now the ceiling's back up and we can breathe a bit.

    Shame though, that it took a Christmas game against the Spurs to find it. The inconsistent effort is something that has plagued this Rockets team ever since Harden became our centerpiece.
