    Teams with winning records Versus Top 10 -- Updated @Vivi's request
    SAS 12-5
    GSW 12-6
    CLE 10-6
    HOU 11-9
    MEM 12-11
    ​
    Now let's beat SAS, who are squeaking by teams, lately, and due for a loss.

    It will be D'Antoni's 500th win!

    Pretty sure he's never won more than 100 games any given season.

    Rockets have now scored not only the most against them, but 2 out of the Top 4 scores (GSW needed OT to match our 119 last game, and they lost).

    For all the btching about Ariza's shooting percentage, the man plays about the highest mins on the team, has to guard the toughest assignment, and is like one of the oldest. Cut the man some slack. He's very durable, hasn't missed many games

    We've literally had 15+ point leads in every game we've played against them.

    The grizz are not that good imo. Every playoffs team 4-7 is comparable but the grizz and Utah soft have a superstar. Utah has better younger talent and a deeper team

    The clippers still have the top end talent the grizz don't have.

    I'm not worried about either team. But the clips still pose a bigger threat imo.

    We should be heavy favorites against any of the teams we play in the 1st round.

    But I don't think the rockets are concerned one bit of the grit and grind grizz.

    Grizz window is closed its over for them.

    I think we have MEM's number now

    Last two games
    123-108 Home
    119-95 Away

    We now own the most points against the Grizzlies and the 4th most. The 3rd most was Toronto when Conley, ZBo and Vince didn't play.

    As for blowouts, we own their biggest blowout (24pts) and 2nd biggest blowout (15pts) when both Conley and Gasol play. Even counting their injury games in Nov, we own the 2nd and 5th biggest blowouts for any MEM game, the others either had both Conley and Gasol out, or Conley and ZBo out.

    Well, that's just it. Ariza is in his, what?, 11th season or so and D'Antoni plays him too many minutes. Ariza' numbers have declined as a result.

    I must say I liked hearing Clyde dog on Parsons all night! It was nice to see us not take so many 3s yet still win big. Great D tonight compared to other games and I loved the spirit. Loved the fight in this team on the night raising money for The Special Olympics. The special effort makes for a special feeling after the game. I hope we got to 1/4 million for the good folks. I really hope the next special olympics goes off as a sparkling event. Those folks are the real champions we need!

    He should grab more rebounds to compensate poor shooting
