    There was some great defense in the third that led to the blowout. Bev and Capela really set the tone. Keep that up and maybe we can make some noise in the postseason

    They know each other though, the real benefit of bringing them in as a group

    Great to have Beverley back! The line up makes more sense when's he's on it. Stay healthy Bev!

    Blazers haven't been playing that well, but great win nonetheless on the second game of a back to back. Woohoo!

    Bev's defense on Lillard was the difference tonight.
    That and Harden's usual brilliance.

    Getting Pat Bev back is absolutely massive. I forgot how much he has improved his dribble drive game.

    Nice first game back for Bev -- did not look like a guy coming off knee surgery. Good bounceback effort.

    Beverley on that lindsey Lohan diet. He's looks about 170. Lost a lot of weight. But whatever works!! Glad to have him back...

    I'm blacked out here in the hill country, so from the box score, here's some observations.

    Harden's TD in only 32 minutes. Only 13 TO's. In the last 5 games Capela's 10-15 for 66.7% from the foul line. o_O Hope I didn't jinx him!

    Did anyone have problems with toot sports Comcast? Mine was acting up I couldn't watch the game. Had to check it out on a stream.

    Team played really good in the 2nd half. Bev is great glad to have him back he's a big part of what we're trying to do this year.

    Blazers are really bad on defense.

    For all the flack harden takes on D Lillard and McCollum are even worse. They literally just let the guy their guarding go right to the hoop.

    Blazers have a serious defensive problem there allowing like 115 ppg.

    They actually showed Highlights on TNT. No shade given by the crew. It's a really good day for Houston sports.
