    Dmo has play like hot garbage tonight. Smoove and Dwight is a better combo on defense and offense.

    Smith is actually playing quite well.

    He looks like he hasn't been in the weight room in a long time. Playing like a girl out there. A lot of his advantages comes from his power.

    This is going to be one sick rebounding team. You can already see it.

    Overall I thought it went pretty good overall. Nice run with the eventual starting lineup out there to close the half.

    The grizzlies are tough enough....at home coming off a three game losing streak, they're going to be even tougher. Not too concerned. The rockets may take this game in the second half.

    Ask and ye shall receive. It's frankly a minor miracle they're that close given how little Dwight's given them and how poorly they're shooting as a team.

    Rather have DH closing in on him and giving him the two instead of the open 3 with 2 secs to go.

    You guys need to calm the **** down.

    1.) Memphis might be the best team in the league and they are playing like it. Shooting well and low turnovers.
    2.) we are on the road
    3.) two early fouls on Howard really got our rotation out of sync.
    4.) we have three guys brand new to the team
    5.) we are getting nothing on post ups.

    Everyone with this opinion is delusional. The lack of a playmaking point guard is hindering this team severely.

    Smith and Bev with a combined 18 shots. That's not doing this team any favors.

    So... that lineup to finish the half was basically our starting linep for the future.

    I don't blame him for not getting on the floor with those knees, but that sequence on Conley was just stupid and lazy.

    I think Dorsey just sucked all the good play out of DMo and Dwight.

    My gosh, what a comedy of errors from Dorsey and Shved out there to end the 1st and start the 2nd quarters

    A perfect example of how stats can be misleading.
