    Howard really needs to focus on the left side of the block where he goes into the middle of the key and lays it with his left. So much more fluid then anything he does with his right.

    When Dwight takes more than 2 seconds to make his move, his FG% has to be horrific.

    Mchale needs to yell at the refs to force them make a call.

    Not worried, we're up by a few points and we haven't even taken a FT. We're in good shape!

    Why do the Rockets get the worse refs to do their games. This is a one sided game so far. Blazers have gone to the line at will with all the calls going their way.

    Lillard is shooting 5/8.

    Beverley is so good to stop him.

    The strategy at going at harden is working.. Matthews may not have a lot of points, but him MAKING harden play D is obviously affecting him on the offensive end.

    Harden should sit down for a while and re-think his game. We should guard Matthews with parsons. Let Harden get Batum

    Howard will probably get call for offensive foul if he tries to overpower LMA

    Howard never gets calls. What's so frustrating is that if he was a slighter build he'd probably get more calls.

    It's something about just being so strong, the refs seem to think you can take the punishment. So many nights guys are just pounding him all night long...and sometimes blatantly using two hands when he's posting up (which you can't do) and the refs just ignore it.
