    Heh. There's something to be said for winning a game like this just by staying in the game long enough for the young team to make young team mistakes. Rockets played poorly but I'll take it. It was a back-to-back. Get some rest and come back strong for the next one.

    This is a game recent Rox teams would have lost so badly. This team feels different this year no doubt. Enjoyable season so far.

    How is that lucky? they locked down on defense and Harden and Ryno along with Ego hit big shots.

    Yes, yes, I must not abuse this power too much, but sometimes you just have to take it for the team!

    GO ROCKS !!

    Even if you don't like him that much as a player it's really impossible to not like Ryan overall, seems really a great guy

    Whoa. Pulled it out. b2b against a young team full of altheleticm and size.

    Wow!

    By the way, how did Thibs turn into this fat biatch. Really want to smack his face for those non-sense biatching at the end.

    One time a guy came to the dude and said "Sometimes its better to be lucky than good". The dude didn't know what to think of that, but as it pertains to my own life I think it makes perfect sense.

    TWolves gave it away and the Rockets stole it. Wins like this make teams tougher.

    This season is the payback we Rockets fans deserve for that abortion of a season last year.

    Oh and love the new "Splash Gordon" nickname.
