    The pasty-face gangsta prolly came to practice to show them how they flopped back in the good old days. He would elbow you in the ribs, then flop when he was touched. He was a master.

    wasn't a great game for sure

    but aside from the turnovers it was still a pretty good game 24 pts, +16, 13 point win, 2nd most minutes

    this is the whole point of getting cp3 and the development of capela into an all-star calibre player

    it's not 5 vs 1 on offense now

    I swear to God, ESPN First Take is trolling Houston fans. For over half an hour they have teased "up next" stories on the Rockets and they keep coming back with bs arguments abt LeBron vs MJ and Philly being racist for not firing a white man for tanking.

    Listening to these blowhards is torture, but I want to see some highlights...

    CP3's and CC's body language in press conference is a bad omen for the Jazz. Harden is showing quiet confidence too. I would love to see EG and James having a big game,
    and the rest of the guys to hit more shots. Ariza and Luc have to make Donovan work hard all night long. Go Houston Rockets! Keep up the pressure and finish them off in Game 5.

    They just had the segment. Not very interesting to be honest. They debated who's more important to the Rockets(Harden or CP3) and Warriors(Durant or Curry).

    I'm actually ok with that call, with over 9 minutes left in the 3rd, doubtful CP3 is legitimately taking a half court 3 in that situation. Now the Harden one, he absolutely has a complaint, that should either be a no call, or a loose ball foul on the other guy. Nevertheless, that fan's impression was chuckle worthy.

    @Clutch or anyone....Does anyone have a GIF of Clint Capela "Smiling, nodding and clapping" after Mitchell woofed at him? That was such an awesome response.

    Yeah, Harden's 2nd half, more like 4th quarter was off. It had the look of late in game 5 vs SAS. It is possible he was gassed. He is working harder than ever on defense. And remember, they are in Utah and they have high elevation. It doesnt get talked about like Denver but it is real.

    Like you said, that is why we got CP3. It is a team effort. Everyone contributes and picks up the slack where needed.

    Does anyone know what the altercation CP3s brother had in the stands and how it led to the "**** got ugly real quick" comment?

    Clint screens, sprints, rebounds and challenges every shot in the paint. I would say his job is harder physically then what Durant, Harden, or Cp3 have to do.
