    Yeah you're right, except ****ing shaq was old by then. When Shaq played in LA it was ridiculous, there's no comparison to his power/post game to the **** Dwight attempts. It's a sad effort sometimes on Dwight's part. I mean Shaq just overpowered the competition. Obviously Hakeem dominated him in 95, and Shaq admits it, but when Shaq came into his prime it was absurd, and I don't even like Shaq...

    For some reason Francisco Garcia theme music will be Alberto Del Rio

    There were a lot of touch fouls but the Rockets were reaching for no reason in the back court. That said, I'm worried.

    Luckily Harden's best quarter is the third.

    dwight postups kill momentum, because his misses are so bad they jumpstart the break for the other team.... in the first quarter dwight was catching lobs not posting up

    his postups will be the death of this team

    Really can't hold a lead that big on very good team nowadays in the NBA. Need to come out ready to start the 3rd and do not give the Thunder a chance to get going.

    Started the game great, lack of focus and discipline on our part is the only reason why we aren't up around 20 now, we've struggled with this all season long.

    people say we gave up 35, i think the Thunder just stepped up, it isn't like they don't have good players

    To be fair, Dwight isn't doing too well.
    People are disappointed because Dwight could be an all time great if he combined his athleticism with genuine post skill.

    Haha. The only time Chuck and Shaq ever agree on anything is when they are talking about Dwight.

    If Ej and the three stooges aren't trying to be funny, there's no reason to watch them.
