    He is fight for position from time to time in mismatches, but Rockets as usual ignore him or couldn't get the ball in time and then they move on to the next play.

    But I'm happy that Houston is at least running plays for Dwight and giving a lot of touches in the paint.

    I think his post ups aren't that bad, but I agree. Feed him however you can so he stays engaged. That half shows that Harden and Dwight can both be happy.

    I think establishing Dwight early (postups, lobs, whatever) should be the focus of every game. We know Harden can get his whenever.

    Dmo comes in, the ball hops, the team takes off - coincidence? Nope, it is one guy that moves his body, moves the ball and plays team ball inspiring others.

    If Lawson can play like this every night that makes the Rockets so much better. Like 2nd or 3rd round of the playoffs better.

    I think perhaps Marcus Thornton want to be traded...

    Even Brewer has higher priority than him in JB's heart.

    but at the same time he is slow on defense and cant box out a guard, but yeah offense is sexy.

    The ball was moving before DMO came in, but I agree.

    Look we know DMO can't rebound, but his defense is solid. his help D was superb.

    Just got home from dinner and the half time box score is the most impressive I've seen all season. Please don't crap the bed in 2nd half Rox!

    When we actually knock down our open 3s it solves almost all of our issues.
