    Pretty interesting numbers to put up. It speaks to the unique make up of our team and to Morey's general philosophy of 3 pointers and free throws. It's going to be interesting to watch how that FTA number trends during the season. I was really amazed to see that we got 51 FTAs but then combine that with all the 3's attempted then you have an extremely unique combo.

    That was the 2nd time in NBA history that a team has attempted 51 or more FTs and 29 or more 3 pointers. The other time was here http://www.basketball-reference.com/boxscores/201011280DEN.html

    It was the 2nd most FTAs by a Rockets team ever in a regulation game as well.

    With Dwight on the team, we're going to break FTA records.

    And we had 22 turnovers in this game which limited the number of shots and fts we got up. Once this team gels I think we are gonna see some pretty awesome stuff.
