    Someday the Spurs tyranny over the Southwest Division will end..

    We will be delivered, I promise... some of us may not make it that long but the majority of us will...

    Pop is 66 and I am 23... barring some catastrophe... he will hopefully pass on first...

    the rockets opened as heavy dogs and they've blown out further in the last couple of hours.

    That's good.

    Harden doesn't have to chase him around a billion screens. I think last game Belinelli had a pretty big game against us.

    A hobbled Parker and a shortened bench for the Spurs is good news.

    Man we were so close to winning the last game, and I think we can win tonight.

    We gave up 28 turnovers, so that should be a key heading into this game.

    I'm also hoping that Brew, Dwight, and James take care of business as usual.

    What we were doing wasn't working - I was trying a different antijinx tack.

    if McHale is going to play Dorsey/Capela, he needs to do it at the start of the 2nd/4th QTRs to get in the bonus quickly

    Exactly. Only way to turn them into an advantage. Not sure why McHale never does this.

    God, I'm gonna have to listen to those irritating Spurs broadcasters on ILP again.

    Hope Harden and the Rockets silence them.

    Of course our two most important regular season games are against a red hot Spurs team in the last week of the season.

    caught just enough of to hear them assert that Leonard is the "Real MVP" this year. still hurting from the DMo news, but an old fashioned beat-down of the Spurs would do a little to help me along.

    We have to push the tempo. No way we will be successful in the half court, especially if we try to force feed Dwight. If it's in the half court, needs to be PnR all day long.

    Joe Crawford is a ref! Harden will get his calls, right? Joe loves to toot his whistle any chance he gets.
