    Asik had two rebounds stolen from him by Dwight. He's ain't going to stay happy.

    Asik and Howard look monstrous on defense, I don't know what some of you guys are talking about. Whenever they were in the paint together it was a break wall. The Spurs couldn't get any points in the paint and couldn't get any rebounds.

    It also looked like there was potential on defense. Asik's butterfingers cost a basket or two.

    At first I was doubting Harden's rank at 4th best in the NBA

    but if he carries what he has been doing in the preseason over to the regular season all the haters better watch out. Houston's got the best 2guard and a top 5 player easy

    Twin Towers is Great. Period. We gained a lot of offensive and defensive rebounds. they got 1 rebound the whole time twin towers was in. We had a lot of Rocket drives even though twin towers was in the game. No one in the Spurs drived to the post while twin towers was in. If they did they got blocked. Top 3 defensive and Offensive team this year, book it

    1. The Beard
    2. Superman
    3. Bang
    4. Lin
    5. Asik
    6. Jones
    7. Donuts
    9. OG
    10. Assfinger
    11. Smith
    12. AB
    13. Brewer
    14. Camby
    15. Canaan
    Cut
    16. Reggie Williams
    17. Robert Covington
    18. Troy Daniels


    Ideally, we should be cutting Camby and Canaan based just on basketball, but Camby is a locker room leader and Canaan is our new draft pick.

    This.

    Twin tower experiment is working. Wait till they get more games under their belts.

    TOTAL SHUTDOWN D.

    They shut down the paint defensively and dominated the glass. Every lineup comes with benefits and drawbacks. For 5-7 minutes a game it'll be fine.

    The ability to relegate teams to shooting jump shots can be invaluable. Teams who have weak outside shooters are going to have a REALLY tough time scoring against the twin towers lineup.
