    And that is a full 1% less than DMo in his rookie year.

    I noticed it too. He does not pass like before either.

    That's what I see too. And P Pat was the only one to publicly talk about that last year. And he's gone. The best ball movement comes when Harden isn't on the court.

    I wonder if a guy like Novak would be a good fit here. I'd give something like TJones + filler (Brewer) for him and a future 2nd rd pick.

    It's going to take the starters some time to build up their chemistry.

    Harden wasn't 100% last night.

    We've already got the Puerto Rican version of him.

    No one's going to praise Omer? I thought he did a great job being the defensive anchor whenever he was on the court. Still had his usual flubs at the rim, but hopefully just like last year, he would improve as the season goes along

    That's because if he passes, he's not going to get the ball back

    Garcia shaking his head... Unless you're referring to another Rockets player I don't know of.

    Why yes, chandler is the Puerto Rican Steve Novak. There is Puerto Rican in him, or is it him in some Puerto Rican.

    yeah yeah Cisco is from the Dominican Republic, close enough.

    Asik to me looked a bit disappointed that he was on the bench crunch time while Howard was having fun out there. Hope this does not escalate

    Asik played really well on the defensive end. He definitely needs more recognition and the effect he has on the game.

    On another note is it me or are we undervaluing the performance of the Bobcats defensive front? I think they played a style that makes the game a little murky. This team was much better than I had thought.

    They reminded me of the pre-Harden Rockets - a scrappy team that was busting ass and staying in the game until the 4th quarter, when the lack of a reliable closer became a problem. They played really nice defense. They won't be a great team, but they're nowhere near as bad as people are assuming from last year.
