    Was agreeing with you, then taking it a step further.

    We're not enemies.

    The recent McGrady talk had me thinking about that bullish.

    Incredible for a team to fall short like that almost B2B seasons.

    Which win was more impressive/important, this one or the one over Miami?

    Miami, the two time defending champions. We were expected to lose. I think the win over the Heat was huge for the confidence of this young team, and helped drive them to the blowout win over the Pacers.

    Same exact move (frame by frame) what he did In Minnesota 2 years ago as a Knick player.

    I agree. It also helps mature the team up too. I expect us to beat Portland Sunday. Our team is definitely thinking championship.

    the best thing about this game was harden's defense, not his 3pt shooting.

    This is why I love this team. They genuinely like and support each other, and it shows.

    Pacers. MIA was a great win, but only 3 points and backend of B2B. The fact Wade was fresh deserves mentioning. Pacers, we beat them down, both teams fresh. Turnovers were the biggest difference in either game. Any <12 turnover performance = 90% Rockets victory

    All of Harden's antics were awesome last night. He rose to the challenge in a major way.

    If Lin can play like tonight or more back to his last year form (after ASG last year), then he can make the 2nd unit compete with any teams' 2nd units. Just have Asik(C), DMo(PF), Hamilton (SF), Daniel (SG) and you have a pretty good unit which can even compete with the 1st team of some of the sorry teams in the East, LOL. That unit can score and defend as good as any 2nd unit out there. Championship is possible after wasting Miami & Indiana within the same week. Beating Indiana with ease shows the glimpse of the awesome potential of the Rox with all their young guns maturing. Go Rockets.

    Miami, regardless of circumstance. It's always a better feeling to beat a team that has the best player in the world and one of the top 5 SGs and PFs in the game.
