    Because the Rockets are the best back-to-back team in the league we suddenly out-rebound a great rebounding team by a massive margin after sucking at rebounding pretty consistently for a month???

    I didn't say "The Rockets won because Cleveland was on a back-to-back". I implied that Cleveland being back-to-back affected their rebounding. No need to argue. But we can!

    One thing I've really grown to respect, are the interviews Harden gives before and after games.

    We all know Harden has his cocky moments, but he always says the right things in interviews. He doesn't make the headlines for a certain post game interview. Always gives credits to his teammates, which is important, because I'm sure he knows that his teammates get asked about "his greatness" after big wins.

    It's more effective to let others/teammates to praise u than brag about yourself.

    There rebounding has been a issue for a while now hence why they went after Bogut and now Sanders. They just don't hustle period.That is not in their makeup and that is why Love is so important to there cause

    sure we have better shooters but the ball was sticky a lot more during Mchale's tenure. We still had lin, bev, parsons, ariza, terry, daniels, etc

    the ball was actually moving pretty well when the rockets had lin, parsons, and harden, asik etc.. it got sticky when they had the likes of josh smith, beasley, thornton etc aka the guys who never saw a shot they didn't like

    Lin :a role player at best

    Daniels: limited role player
    Ariza :superb role player


    Terrible examples

    The Spurs record is indeed disappointing. But when consider that 3 of the 4 games was decided by 2 pts only. The 4th by 6 pts. The avg margin is only -2pts. It's not like they were dominating. It would be an very exciting series if they do meet.

    Rockets G James Harden's triple-double Sunday was the sixth one surrendered by the Cavaliers this season. That's the most triple-doubles allowed by a defending champion in 54 years, according to the Elias Sports Bureau.

    THAT'S HOT HOT HOT.

    ;)
