    Uh, did you see the game at New Orleans just after New Year's? THAT was a complete lack of effort and heart.

    Yes. That was the worst game I've seen in years.

    Anyway, will be tough to win tonight. Not sure how the Jazz have been so good lately, but let's hope the Rockets recognize this and show up to play.

    There's not a whole lot of teams that can actually beat us (besides GSW + Grizz) we usually just beat ourselves cause we can never perform consistently.

    Lose to the important teams win against the scrubs. That's usually how it's been this season.

    I found the question:

    <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p>Besides the Spurs, can you name the only 2 other NBA teams LeBron James has a losing record against? (Incl. Playoffs) <a href="http://t.co/BJIoWGDwWL">pic.twitter.com/BJIoWGDwWL</a></p>&mdash; NBA on TNT (@NBAonTNT) <a href="https://twitter.com/NBAonTNT/status/576057656030339072">March 12, 2015</a></blockquote>

    The phrasing is confusing. What ESPN means is that the Spurs, Nuggets and Rockets are the only 3 teams LeBron has a losing record against "if we include the playoffs." They are saying that he might have a losing record against other teams if we do not include the playoffs.

    He injured his ankle in practice or shootaround. But wasn't that like 3 weeks ago? How badly did he hurt himself that he's still out and we have no timetable for his return?

    And you think Portland didn't understand the importance of last night's game? The Rockets lost by 5 on the road against a team that's now 42-20 and 27-6 at home. Without Dwight Howard, BTW. People need to chill out. I wish they'd played better, but it's not like they half-assed it out there.

    What happened last night is nothing compared to what they did in New Orleans. Or at Detroit(for 3 quarters anyway). Or at Orlando. Or in Chicago a year ago.

    Suddenly a "must" win. Can't start losing games at this stage of the season. We could drop like a rock in the standings. Got to have it.
