    Golden State might shoot 50% from 3 on us

    It doesn't stop the media from talking about it when Curry does it.

    We will destroy teams like Portland but will have trouble against the teams like the Spurs.

    Rockets are 5-1 with Beverley back into the starting lineup.

    Beverley has improved the second unit offense.

    They have actually showed signs of pulling away from teams.

    Going to be a good year.

    Yeah having him in the second unit allows Gordon to be a primary scorer instead of being a playmaker. With Bev back, it means Gordon can look for his shot instead of trying to be a playmaker for others when Harden is off the floor.

    One thing I like about this team this season is they do not dwell on losses. They come into the next game and take care of business.

    Guess what the first TNT game of the season will be? @GSW

    They scheduled Dec 1st to talk crap about the Rockets after the Warriors kick their ass in Oracle.

    Anyways, winning in Utah is gonna be tough tomorrow with George Hill back, but I don't want to lose back to back games.

    What a fun game... I thought we were going to lose it there, but our guys were poised. Excellent win, way to avoid getting flustered!

    Side note: strange game in the rebounding department. Only 71 total rebounds for the game even though 165 shots went up. Average number of rebounds is around 90 per game.

    Beat the Jazz! Stop focusing on the Golden State Wussies!

    Great game, even my favorite whipping boy Ryan Anderson stepped up and became aggressive this night. He's not so bad if he shoots a lot to justify his PT, my problem with him is when he takes like 6-8 attempts all game long despite playing 30 minutes and really providing nothing else besides spacing and scoring ability.

    Solid win from the team, I also like how the Rox rebound from losses pretty quickly, and apart from the Toronto Raptors game every loss we've had has been pretty close whereas OTH we've blown so many mofos out this season.

    I choose to believe they are paying Gordon the $80million, not Ryno. :D
