    what a game! Scola was excellent in the post in OT, Lowry made some amazing plays in the end of the fourth and OT and Chuck played good defense on Randolph in crucial minutes with five fouls!

    But most of all, I like the EFFORT ON DEFENSE!

    we need it every freaking game!

    And some here want to trade Scola. The only ones out will be Brooks, JJ, Bud, Hill, Yao, TE(Ariza's) and the 1st round picks.

    Lowry was great in such 2 plays, but Scola was the one scoring in the most difficult moments in OT...that´s also important.

    As much as we complain about Adelman's substitution patterns, he made the right adjustments tonight by shortening the leash on the suddenly crappy bench.

    Guys don't forget to thank Gasol for kicking the ball back out...if you really notice when he grabbed the offensive board he had a clear shot but passed out for some unknown reason..I would have easily bank the shot in that close

    Tonight he was flawless. Bud almost had no minutes, the starters came back with plenty of time in the 4th and kept them in until the very end. The big difference was that ball hog Brooks wasn't in the game for long and at the end.

    Suddenly crappy bench? Try consistently Crappy bench.

    But you're right, Adelman pulled Miller pretty quick after he couldn't secure a defensive rebound after a missed FT. We know what happens when B. Miller does something terrible: He compounds the problem with a TO, a Tech, or a pump fake slo-mo slash to the rim that results in confounded gasps/eye rolls.

    Yeah, it definitely looked like the ball landed on the baseline before Lowry tossed it to the other end of the court. I was really surprised when I didn't hear a whistle.

    Worell mentions the Rockets tightening the rotation.

    Bill always says what the GARM is thinking, he knows his stuff.

    No. Watch the replay. Lowry saved the ball.
