    But went deeper on the Clippers saying no one can match them on an average day.

    Honestly being that this is his second year he's getting heavy minutes, he can only grow from here. Shows a lot of upside to him but at times very raw center. Work on his footing a few, boxing out, just the necessities that come with being a true center and he can be great.

    Ariza shot 16.7% in 3s and 25% in FGs. Corey Brewer offensive numbers.
    Imagine how much better the Rockets can be if we can trade/replace him as our starting small forward next year.

    Great win! And props to Capela for knocking down his FTs during that hacka crap.

    I don't know about that. They're very physical and loves to grind out wins. These jokers always gives us problems.

    The easiest of the three IMO is the Clippers.

    I'd still take the Thunder as my preferred first round match up

    to think Ariza/Dekker are now arguably the weak links on the team is wild but that's the reality..I don't count brown since he's more of a close up fan on the bench at this stage...at the same time Ariza doesn't need to score that much anymore now that we have enough offensive fire power.

    I don't like any of the potential matchups. The West is a freaking gauntlet.

    Houston needs to grab more rebounds vs Spurs. Also less turn over by Harden. Houston does not play well.in the last few minutes today. Last time, Spurs uses the last few minutes to blow houston lead and finally win. This is a good lesson learnt for houston. Nene + capela is good to defense for gasol brother. I hope houston continues to use them to for center. Next match is a rebound matchup. Remember to shoot 2 if the shooting percentages are poor

    If he had some on Nene's skill with the ball and strength he would be a force for years to come.
