    first time in a long time I've seen the Rockets actually call a play for Ryan Anderson to get a 3.

    I thought he had similar bounce in the Lakers game too.

    JVG on Anderson:

    At home, only shooting 39%. 48% on the road. 44% from 3 on the road, 33% at home which is unusual. When I quoted those stats last year, Daryl Morey took me to task saying it's an insignificant amount. Something about the data. He & his wife lambasted me. ... Statistically insignificant from what I've been told from the MIT nerds. I think it's very significant.

    Rockets' 1.15 Points Per Possession on isolation is NBA's highest since 2004.

    No other team this season is 1.0

    Seems Shaq would be a major factor in '04.

    If he's contributing on offense, it helps everyone. He takes pressure off Harden, Gordon, and Ariza when he's hitting his shots.

    Gun to my head, I still put the Warriors as prohibitive favorites but the Rockets are clearly the 2nd best team. - JVG

    JVG knows basketball inside and out, Daryl is a good GM, his knowledge of the game is limited.
