    Great game. CP was the man out there. He just has this quiet confidence that makes the other team seem like they have no chance at coming back to win. You know with CP in the game the right plays will be made. On a side note, Dwight looked GREAT. I've never seem him this solid with his post moves. Had Dwight accepted his role as a pick & roll center, he'd still be a Rocket. As good as Capela is now, you can see how much better Dwight is (ofcourse when he wants to play)

    The Dwight vs Capela matchup is definitely in Dwight's favor because he's much stronger. Thankfully, the majority of Cs in the league aren't this bulky, so Clint thrives in most matchups.

    Make no mistake though, Capela is an infinitely better fit for this team than Dwight.

    Great dominant win by the Good fellas. My MVP is Chris Paul aka CP3 aka freestyle dribbling master. What a showtime performance he had last night.

    Oh for those that expressed their concerns about our defense. We took care of business on that end as well.

    Hoping for good news on Luc's MRI today

    His injury seemed a knee at first, the way he landed.

    It's his shooting arm, right?

    Dwight may of had the stats but Capela showed his heart/hustle last night. I loved it when Capela beat him back down the court for easy dunks.

    Last game's Dwight has been the Dwight that dominated in the spare games as a Rocket.

    What would the Rockets' point differential actually be if they had scrubs that could maintain a lead or at least only give up a little ground instead of hemorrhaging half a 20 point lead away in 2 minutes?

    The starters left up 20 and 3rd stringers gave up a 8-0 run in a minute.

    You are an inspiration Codman! Keep fighting the good fight, prayers are with you.

    I hope that #MagicMan reference is for Aaron Gordon. ;)

    Hang in there brother. It's coming for us all sooner or later.
    Some see it as a bad thing. But a place where there is no war, politics, violence, poverty or sickness
    doesn't sound bad at all. You'll just get to enjoy it before some of us will.

    Thanks for touching so many lives in a positive way by sharing your insights.

    We're with you
