    I have to take issue with this post. GM Daryl Morey, Clutch the Bear and the Rockets organisation sent out some awesome gifts for my daughter as she was battling cancer, as well as some things for my other kids last Christmas, & they didn't use it as a P.R. stunt.

    …and I'm in Australia.

    I love that sequence towards the end where he drew two fouls and then scored in one possession. He looks so much more comfortable in the post these days. I don't cringe when he goes to make a move.

    This. It's too bad there was no Rose. Bulls are so boring.

    Morey with the post game tweet hinting at Millsap with the 4:

    TJ's turning into the best lob passer to Dwight we have.

    After watching the Bulls turnover parade I only have one thing to say...

    So THIS is what its like to be the recipient of turnovers ala the Rockets (usually)

    And this was my highlight of the game. The "stars" were impressive, but T. Jones is quietly becoming invaluable. He hustles on defense, he rebounds, he scores (on occasion), but tonight he became an assist machine, specifically for Howard. i was very, very impressed.

    A win is a win and it was fun, they didn't play down tonight. McHale is back, Harden ankle seems fine and everyone is happy post interview and commentating.

    He was actually solid on defense which I've noticed he has improved & offense tonight 7/13fg 2/4 from3, when he drove to the rim off the left block & got fouled one play it was one of the hardest drives I saw from him this year.

    Was nothing against harden, Turnovers happen everybody does it "I'm never bashing players on them", was just saying I've seen posters freaking out bashing other players here for pages at a time if they commit a few even if we're winning was strange not seeing one post about it today.

    Post talk Calvin Murphy suggests Drexlar train forwards on lob pass to Howard and he says they will have to meet him on golf course. LMAO

    If you hadn't mentioned that, I doubt any of us would have known about this class act by the Rocket organization. Thanks for the insight & Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you & your family.

    It was a class act by the organisation, and the beautiful thing about being a Rockets fan is the other Rockets & Texans fans also sent over a few gifts. It was very moving and beautiful gesture by The Red Nation Family.
