    Somewhat of an OT; congrats to Harden for being on the cover for NBA 2k16:

    JH Has missed 4-5 layups (wide open ) because he was trying to get a and 1, it's a flaw that he has developed , he fixed it on his jumper, remember when he would tilt his head back like someone uppercutted him

    How many of you guys think Capela is already > Nerlens Noel, Embiid, Kanter, and just about all the other young big men from the 4 previous drafts with exception to A. Davis? I think most know he is.... And he's got some NBA PlayOffs under his best as well.. Life is good as a Houston Rox fan isn't it?

    This means that when you get your player over 95 rated, you'll be forced to play for the Knicks and deliver them a championship!

    Nerlens Noel is a beast, I don't think Capela can touch him yet. Embiid is unknown at this point, and Kanter has proven to be very efficient on offense. I'm excited about Clint too, but lets not get ahead of ourselves.

    Yesterday Stephen A. said he (SAS himself) and many others had underestimated the Rockets. Skip said he didn't feel he (Skip) had underestimated us -- moreso that he just underestimated the depth of the rift between Rondo and Carlisle. :rolleyes:

    I don't know if I'd go that far. But he's only 20 years old and has barely played in the NBA. If he's this good now, imagine how he'll be at age 22 or 23. And best of all, he's getting valuable playoff experience this early in his career. So when he does assume a larger role on the team, he won't be rattled by pressure situations.

    On an unrelated note, I really hate that we've had to wait 3 days between all our games so far. The wait feels endless, and my productivity at work has gone to complete ****! I'm ready to explode!

    Why the hate for Hubie? He's one of the more knowledgeable commentators in sports?

    Harden is 5-8 in this series in the restricted area, and 4-20 everywhere else. It's not his layups that are the problem.
