    Just random curiosity, but do the Rockets still give out free Big Macs for everyone in attendance when they score 100+ points and a win?

    I wonder if management is aware of this. Maybe thats why they decided to bring in Adelman to try to consistently score in triple digits. I might just be overthinking it though.

    61 points in the first half, Aaron Brooks starting, coincidence?

    I think not.

    that's actually pretty ridiculous. it's hard to think of any qualifier that you could get 40 straight wins out of (except scoring more than the other team), much less something as simple as just scoring 100. it may not always be pretty, but this duo has been pretty good at winning games when they actually both make it to the opening tip.


    you realize of course by pointing this out that my stat-obsessed mind will be watching this like a hawk now which will most likely cause it to collapse on itself very shortly.

    Well to be fair, the Nets' defense is pretty terrible.

    Yes but the Rockets offense these last few games has been very good.
