    The Gurriel reference must be for future reference. He hasn't been good.

    Edit.. I get it now...

    This is a perfect wake-up call win for our next game vs San Antonio!
    I was feeling that this team may be getting a bit complacent with all them blow-out wins.
    I can't ask for a better type of game before San Antonio!
    Hope Capella will be good come tuesday!

    As much as I hate to bring up this particular team, since I throw up in my mouth a little every time I think of them, tonight's win reminded me of the Warriors last year. No lead was ever safe, and there was always this feeling that they could let loose with a barrage right at the end to snatch a game away from someone.

    So far this year, we've been that team. Our only really inexcusable loss was opening night against the Fakers.

    True story. I live overseas and haven't seen a game live for 5 years. I was in Minnesota visiting family for the holidays and went to this game. My kids, jet-lagged, were feeling sick so asked to leave early. Down 12, we decided to leave with about 3 minutes left ... so, that's a great start to Christmas!

    Harden is such a cool customer. I watched that a few times and watched only him on the last part. His big emotions for the game? A lazy high five after the clock ran out, no smile, no frown, like he's an empty vessel. That dude likes to win playing lights out!!!

    Harden will win, and so will the Rockets.

    We couldn't find our rhythm, like these guys. But just like these guys are still winning anyway, we are too.

    Houston should hire this as a halftime show, that would help us win:
