    i was sure #anxietytroopers would be #1 ! I thought Royce had the whole nation behind him? Fighting anxiety more important than #Rockets!

    Yeah let's pull the trigger on that, but be sure to emphasize how having to take back Howard is going to hurt the Rockets' chances at using their cap space to trade for a better player before the trade deadline.

    Still dont understand why Parsons was on the bench. Initially I thought maybe Sampson stayed with Delfino to use some fouls and then finish with Chandler... but not. Chandler is the best offensive and defensive player.

    If he can keep his FT% around 60%, let them. I'd say it's not an effective strategy on anyone who shoots better than about 50%.

    Unless you score on an equivalent percentage of possessions, you are losing points on the deal. How many teams can say confidently that they'll score on 60% of their possessions?

    What really puzzles me is that Duh-White has been in the league for 8 years now, and his freethrow hasn't improved one bit. How the hell is that even possible with how many freethrows you have shot over the years.

    I don't think it was because of what Sampson did that was brilliant but what Mike Dantoni failed to do. Sampson in my opinion started hack a howard late. Just some observations.

    Greg Smith was amazing in this game big props to him.

    they were all having an off-night for some reason. Nothing to read into. Its good to see Sampson go with the hot hand...althougut lets be honest, he should've benched Harden after the half.

    So good to see us get a win after trailing. This game will give huge growth for our young team. The belief will be there when they are facing same odds again.

    If we'd won those two OT games earlier this season we'd be 11-6

    Delfino is underrated as an on the ball defender. He made a lot of great plays on Kobe in the fourth quarter. I love Parsons's game as much as the next guy, but Delfino deserved to stay in with Douglas and Smith.

    It's good the bench came through for us. That way our starters are fresh for tomorrows game.
