    Why was Covington yanked after so few minutes? Not good?

    Indiana isn't going to make it out of the East. Miami will however. A win this game would secure home court advantage over Miami. Dumb loss.

    Agree except I thought Powell did marginally ok. For just stepping into a mixed line up like that he was solid and that little mid range shot is something strange and unknown in a Rockets offense so thee is that.

    Dmo has fallen off a cliff, dude looks soft and lost on D, and suspect on offense half the time, wonder what happened in the last 6 weeks ?

    Wow a lot of people on here took an exhibition game WAAY too seriously. Fun game to watch IMO to see the young guys get some seasoning.

    Also Dwight's stats don't show it but he got a lot of good post work tonight. Not actually scoring but setting himself up and passing out of the double team. Made the right passes out at the right time to get open shots.

    I think this team has a chance of coming out of the West and securing homecourt against Miami. A win would have made it 55-27 vs Miami's 54-28.

    Miami has the tie breaker because they are best within their Division. Houston is 2nd to San Antonio so yeah......

    Thanks for the answer, not that it is likely to happen, but Rockets just lost a chance at HC advantage against the Heats in the finals. :p

    You living in a dream world.
    You think we can get past Utah then SA then OKC then meet the Heat ( if they make all the way too)
    Then force a 7th game at American Airlines arena?
    That's crazy

    We don't need a 7th game.
    We will take the Heat in 6

    daniels should start?
    lin with 4 turnovers and couldn't keep up with rivers, resulting in fouls. getting caught behind picks for river three point shots. we're lucky rivers sucks other wise he'd gone for 50 instead of 18. smh.

    What? Lin had 1 TO and 4 steals last game, didn't play this game

    Bev had 4 TO this game, but he was trying to drive and create with Harden and Lin out. Not exactly his skillset.

    I think the Heat would because they won their division.
