    I mean it looked like a broken foot/ankle to me and that heals a lot slower than a sprained ankle/ligament damage

    Jabari to the rescue !!!.... against the league's worst team.

    Rockets haven't had a good game since New Year's day.

    Never but I guess his first clutch shot came against the Pelicans or his 2nd one.....

    Fans should be given credit for their consistency and not just players......Flip flopping is not a great quality.

    Lakers in a close game 3rd Q, but we're already a full game ahead. Nuggets blown out vs Hornets at home. Lawd

    No I totally want us to build around Jabari Smith Jr now after this one good game. I was wrong he isnt terribly inconsistent and undependable at all and this one game proved it.

    I can't wait to hear what KD says when Bari passes him on the all-time scoring list.
