    So if he gets hot from the field, can we call him soup thrower instead of flamethrower.

    Pretty big game for tanking purposes. If the Rockets want to stay at 3, it's important to keep some distance from Sacramento. Just like trying to catch a team in the standings by winning, this game has a 2 game value as far as the tank goes. I was anti tank 13 games ago, but at this point I'm cool with a 40 game losing streak. Trust the Process.

    Everyone wants to see a big game from Porter, but we need some big games out of Oladipo and Tucker.

    I expect the Kings to win, but what's going to happen if our Rockets break the losing streak?

    Rockets lose 125 to 123 when Tucker misses a corner 3. Tucker is traded to Nets 1 hour later. On Friday Harden and Tucker is spoted at Hardens restaurant with 10 women 1 is a Karfashion. Tucker is crying and making it rain 100 dollar bills. Nets win Championship on a Tucker 3.

    With the 'Veteran Showcase' that is about to unfold it will be pretty spectacular if KPJ or any other young guy will be able to shine. Its not a Harden being injected immediately into a new lineup situation. Coming off the bench for vets who will be going above and beyond to try and play hero ball and pump up trade value isnt the most ideal conditions for roster evaluation.

    You must be thinking of the value of playoff tiebreakers. Pre-Lottery tiebreakers are random.

    Maybe we could say it has a 1 game value, plus the random odds of winning a coin-flip tiebreaker = 1.5 value :D
