    It's nice to see a guy other than Harden who when driving to the basket you don't think to yourself "Please no...."

    Two different aspects of the Rockets in China.

    One team that knows they have to defend when shots aren't falling, this morning.

    The other is the offensive minded Rockets team that hits shots so well that DEFENSE isn't in the vocabulary.

    First time not watching a game in a long time. Lance is horrible. Rockets in the morning is great.

    Great pass from James to dekker. Offense hasn't been a problem since James arrived but I think I'm gonna like what we can do on that side of the ball a lot this year

    Harden and Gordon look like a great combo . They play really well with one another.

    This is the Bzedlik DEFENSIVE PHILOSOPHY that the ROCKETS organization has sorely missed since the Van Gundy era.

    31-14 Rockets after one.

    Yes it's pre season, but my word the effort on defense.

    Gordon and Dekker both defending the picks extremely well, Harrell always in help position.

    Now THIS is fun to watch.
