    It's especially sweet because on that rebound I believe CP3 had the option of passing to an open PJ right next to Gary, too. But he went right back to Gary. :D

    It wasn't just talk from Harden and Paul with MDA.

    Also, people who've been whining about Rivers lately- he played great defense tonight (as usual) and had 17 points with a +/- of 8. Where y'all at? [​IMG]

    Tucker is a difference maker!!!! Sorry to disagree with you, but I'm gonna defend Tucker. He is our Brick and Mortar version of Patrick Beverley. All hustle, fighting for that ball, and giving it all. I love Tucker. He definitely helped us win our last 2 games with 4 steals in each. He's also been 7 of 7 from behind the arc on his last 7 shots and 13-20 his last 4 games. I don't care what that + or - says. Sometimes those stats don't tell the whole story.

    Rivers was pretty big for us toward the end. Reminded me how clutch he was when we first signed him.

    Damn that Russian kid video is funny as hell, but it made miss the hell out of Trevor. I completely forgot his highstepping trolling he did on the sidelines after harden slid Wesley. I laughed for a good 5 mins.

    Makes me so angry! He's played EVERY. GAME. THIS. SEASON. He always shows up and plays hard for us! And people want to clown him on these boards. No, not today or any other day, Satan! [​IMG]

    Gary Clark is shooting 29% from 3 and averaging 2.8 rebs a game. Compare that to Tucker's 6.5 rebs a game and 37% from 3.

    Just stop I loved his performance tonight but Clark hasn't proven anything.

    Tucker and Ariza were our biggest two glue guys. We saw what happened when Trev left. If Tuck is gone our locker room would be in disarray. The man gives everything he has night in and out.

    Tucker's regression this season was caused by fatigue. He was shooting well from 3PT early this year then fell off. But understandable with his heavy workload. He's started his most games since '16 and is averaging his most minutes ever.

    He recharged over the ASB and is shooting .538 3PT% (14-26) since the return. Rockets (MDA) needs to keep guys fresh for the postseason. We'll be okay if healthy.

    Good win, but our lackadasical effort in the first half made it harder than it should have been.

    Not exactly sexy victories, but ultimately we took care of business against some mediocre teams.

    Now a couple days off and a nice 3 game stretch against good teams. Playing down to the competition shouldn't be an issue.

    Guess his hand's better. 7-8, field, and 3-4, from 3 is a lot better than he had been doing.

    Good. The Rockets'll need him. Especially for these next three games. Wouldn't it be a hoot if they went 3-0 for 'em?

    14 pts and 32 minutes should be Scary Gary's Season high.
