    Yep but he also airballed a couple of 2s i think...and i can live with that all day, don't let him attack the paint, give him a bit of space and let him shoot long 2s, as long as goes for that shot i think we're fine.

    I actually thought that mark jacksons idea to work with that would be fun .

    What about if

    Both teams have to use a player that is active that hasn't gotten minutes yet . When a team has run out of players then the review just proceeds like normal . So there would be like a Max of 3-4 times.

    @J.R. was one of those guys passive aggressively whining about Tilman and Morey. I wonder if there is some type of sabotage going on here.

    Man, I haven't watched many Thunder games this season, but Westbrook's game looks like it aged 10 years overnight.

    No lead is safe with this team. They can not let up

    I'm liking how the game is going so far and let's keep it up. It's still embarrassing though that Houston can't fill up the lower bowl. It looks like Target Center out there when they pan out.

    Wow. Only 2 turnovers in the first half for the Rockets. I like it!

    Tucker may not be hitting the corner 3's like we want, but his defense has been stellar.

    25 points in the first half. Has seen one of the best defenders in the game on him, in PG13. Has also seen Schroeder (tenacious), Grant and Ferguson (length).

    It's crazy how it doesn't matter who guards him. He's gonna score on you, regardless.

    See you say that, and I'm dreading some ridiculous 20-2 run by OKC, where D'Antoni sits on timeouts like he can exchange them after the game for breaks on the payroll. Like the Nets game, etc...

    I don't know man, I was watching the layup line and the rockets all the sudden don't have any scrubs.

    PG13 was playing some really good defense on Harden early, I didn't think Harden was going to reach 30. Harden is at 25 right now.

    Wouldn't it be nice to put this away in the 3rd and not have a ballgame in the 4th?
