    Maaaayne !!... we were 66.7% in the midrange.

    Equals 44.4% 3PT.... Rockets only shot 39.2 3PT tonight.


    Shoot more mid-range !!!!!!

    Their spacing was a big issue for them. They got Cousins and AD on the same side of the court multiple times and allowed our guys to just freeze them in place.

    It's also the first game though, have to see how it goes.

    I don't watch ESPN normally, according to an fb post I saw all ESPN talked about was how trades impacted the Lakers and not that Lou had a big game

    What I saw is they only showed Boogie Cousins highlights. Good and bad.

    Yes I made the mistake of watching BSPN and I thought, cool, the Rockets-Pels game was the opening highlight. All they talked about was how many blocks Cousins got and highlights of Davis scoring. And oh btw, the Pelicans got blown out by the Rockets at home, blah, blah, blah. They only showed the Boogie interview. I thought they would at least mention something about Lou Williams coming in cold and raining all over the Nola parade. F them b****es at ESPN! I want us to win the championship so bad to make these clowns show up.

    They were all over Magic jock strap for sure. He suppose to make the Lakers great again. He's already wheeling and dealing and he just got on the job. Kobe Bryant is on board with helping them out. Luke is a proven winner and this young GM knows how to connect with these players. Bwhahaha

    Oh the expectation of Magic pulling off a deal to get Paul George. .

    Off the chains

    I thought Gordon was quick and smooth, this guy is even better with his shot! He's like Jamal Crawford out there, amazing debut :D Cannot fault Morey & Harden for committing to threes and just adding great shooters. We are dangerous, maybe even scary dangerous enough to challenge the big dogs.

    Why? They are trying to tank. It's in their best interest for Brewer to be taking those shots at his 23% clip instead.

    Management may be trying to tank. But fans can't be too happy.
    They are used to looking down their noses in LA LA land at their next 'victims' when they come to town.
    The celebs would all turn out to see the "Lake Show" since the 80's
    Now, they are the whipping boys of the NBA. It's gotta hurt for fans
    AND I LOVE IT!!!

    On ESPN news I caught a bit of the first sports center. They had Bruce Bowen on and all the talked at first was about Cousins and how it will take time to adjust and play etc etc.

    I was initially pissed, but then they shifted focus to Williams and Bowen mentioned for a guard the curve is a bit easier and they did give him a good amount of praise. But that was not the real sports center I believe.

    Considering tanking will most likely net them PG as well as keep their high draft pick, I think the fans would be happy about their situation. At least the smart ones will be happy.
