    And UTA beat MEM.

    Now GSW can keep winning. They'll more likely meet OKC in the #1 vs. #8 match-up. Good luck to them

    Funniest thing about this is...Schroeder went for 22, you'd think Dallas would have put Rondo on him...

    Even though it's 1 game but it seems like Rockets got Warriors version of Iguodala.

    Draymond Green = Patrick Beverly
    Andrea Iguodala = Corey Brewer

    :D :D :D... Rockets and Warriors are evenly matched but only Kerr is a big upgrade over Mchale.

    As we saw tonight, coaches are rotating the starters. Beginning of 2nd qtr, you had Howard in while Harden sat. Coaches liked the Harden-Brewer combination. Then beginning of 4th, you had DMo-Ariza-Bev together.

    We have a number of ways to get the right combination of players on the court at one time to balance offense-defense.

    FO now targetting guys with proven NBA experience as we continue our pursuit of a championship-caliber rotation.

    The rookies and hot-cold guys will need to take a backseat. It could be that the young guys realized that they could be traded.

    Deep benches equal fresher legs equal jump shots made.

    Ariza and Harden are going to raise those percentages.

    Ariza was fresh at the beginning of the year and you saw his ability.

    I love that Root Sports has the replay immediately after the game. I usually miss the first half, so I can easily catch up.

    Brewer was an instant contributor from his first minute as a Rocket.

    Today was all about revenge. Harden was a man on a mission. We got in the head of Mathews and Lillard.
