    Hardens % is getting progressively worse. Not a good trend. His FTs are sad now. I have no faith in him at the line.

    Incidental contact - both looking for ball and feet get tangled

    Our November schedule is sh*t, we played mostly top 10 or top 5 defensive teams the whole month, and on the road (CLE, ATL, SAS, OKC, UTA, DET, etc.) Was a tough test for our offense, but we pulled it through somehow.

    they should turn the two minute report into a one minute report tomorrow because the last 15 seconds accounted for half of the time it took to finish the fourth quarter

    Clint has looked great the past couple of games! He doesn't seem to be getting fatigued as quick as he was earlier in the season as wel. Very impressed with him.

    His stamina has definitely improved. He is now a capable 30 MPG center

    LP got stuck on the dancing blonde in the stands for 30 minutes, so they cut me off at the 30 second mark and I had to read the ending.

    Harden will shoot it better, he's always been a streaky shooter, but yeah I would like to see him be a bit more consistent with his J, because he's prob. the most unguardable player in the league when he's hitting his shots, due to his ability to get to the rim, draw fouls, or find the open man.

    Bzdelik had a quick huddle with players going into game after time out.
    I'm guessing he was suggesting to foul Drummond if he touches the ball.
    Drummond went for rebound and Capela fouled him. Missed both FT's

    Also MDA called a couple of timely time outs in final minutes.
    One where Harden was trapped on inbounds play by 2 defenders near our bench
    Instead of risking jump ball, MDA immediately called TO. Crisis averted

    Great game by the Rockets, I'm really happy we won on a Harden off night. Capela and Dekker and honestly KJ (if only he wasn't in the doghouse) paint a very bright future for the Rockets, these guys are quality players and everybody who says Morey is a mediocre drafter should just STFU.

    The team is really coming together and my preseason predictions of being a top 4 seed don't seem so farfetched with the way this team has been playing, people predicted we would be scoring a lot of points but they didn't expect the defense to be this good.

    James rests plenty on D... fast-breaks and half-court, although he can D-up when he tries.

    Advancing the ball upcourt can be handled by Bev or whoever if need be.

    I feel like dwight rubbed some of his technique off on Harden.
    Logically thinking i think he is in a slump. He is a shooter. So it'll be back soon. Key is to not let this get into your head. Ala every big men in the game

    If I was a Pistons fan I would be very happy with Drummond. He did not play well tonight, but this kind of drive will make him great. Hell, he's already massively improved the FT shooting from last year already.
