    Like always analyst not knowing what the Rockets have done in the past or are currently doing. Sekou has Russell wining League MVP. I hope Harden gets the MVP but if not I hope it motivates him in the playoffs.

    Harden was asked a question, now they mad he answered the question.

    Far left dude was like, "Why you lobbying so hard?"

    Maximum side eye for far left guy.

    Air zoom units are too good to be true is the main issue. Adidas or any other brand can never recreate that technology. It's not their fault it is what it is.

    I'm sorry, but you're severely overrating what the Lakers have going on down there. There is nothing impressive about their young core. They are a dumpster fire defensively and horrible offensively. They have zero chance of being a force next year. I have no idea what u see in them. I said it before and I'll say it again, if Paul George goes to the Lakers then I'll have to officially start treating him as the next Melo. U don't go to the Lakers if winning is a priority because they won't be doing any of that for a long time.

    Outside of Randle the Lakers are terrible. Just garbage.They are going to need to get a legit 3 who can play the 2 in spurts along with a point guard in free agency and some serious depth to turn this mess around. I would target Paul George and George Hill if I was them. Clarkson is a career backup and Russell's heart is not in it.Ingram is a 3 to 4 year project. Kid is just way out of his depth right now.

    Honestly I thought we played ok without ever playing anywhere near our best. It was a business like game without over extending ourselves. That shows maturity on the Rockets part.

    Why Anderson dumbbell pressing like a p***y? He should learn from big D Nene.

    Like I said don't judge them by their performance this season because they're trying to tank to keep their top 3 pick. Paul George is already on record saying he wants to go to the Lakers. They don't have any big money tied to a core member, all their core guys right now are rookies. Cousins is unlikely to resign with NO long term as he hasn't gelled with AD. So they trade Russell+salary filler for Cousins does NO say no? So Paul George, Cousins, Randle, Ingram, Clarkson+top 3 pick that's not so bad.

    I mean that's just one scenario, Lakers are in a great spot I mean compare them to one star and suck teams like NO or teams that haven't gelled like Timberwolves or just horribly run franchises like 76ers, Lakers are doing really well in their rebuilding efforts.

    Finally another blowout and good game from Lou!! By the way, Skip to my Lou was #12 as well ;)

    @Clutch hope you will give us some nice footage of the honouration of the streak, including the half-time video and maybe some info on the documentary.

    It sure was nice to get another win with a San Antonio loss. 50 rebounds and 37 assists is what I call teamwork. Someone is always stepping up from their cold slump when others have a bad night. Loving it!!! Lou was on fire tonight!!!!!

    My only regret is that they didn't slap two flagrant 2 technicals on Randle. What a nasty jerk that guy is!!!! Guys like that are just dirty, and don't care if they bash someone's face in with that elbow. How the refs didn't review that play is absolutely ridiculous. I have a new reason to despise that team, even if they aren't good this year.

    I thought Harden was fat? Abs prove otherwise.

    Deserves its own thread.

    Rebounds are important. Grab more rebounds can.compensate poor defence, because houston has good offence
