    Gotta love when management gives out enormous contracts to validate their previous decisions.

    They played an OKC team without Westbrook.

    As evident last night, you can play OKC with AND without westbrook in the same game. It's all in the execution of the trolling of your coach. lol.

    @ Nate - hahahaha. There's a reason, Blake, why they are leaving you out there. But the bench reaction is the best. LMFAO.

    I don't know if this was always on the schedule, but ESPN has the most random game for our national one. Atlanta at Portland. What a strange one to pick... not the OKC one, or GS or something. Whatevs. lol.

    If we are still top three by the All-Star break, they'll be rushing to add us to the schedule.

    Heat lose by 20 and LBJ has a +/- of -21 in 33 minutes. Weird.

    They pick all the match-ups they want to show, and see what teams are left over that haven't been scheduled and fill in the blanks - hence Atl vs Port.

    At current winning percentages, it will take 47.5 wins to make the playoffs in the West and 34.5 in the East. (That's pretty cool that it adds up to 82.000!) I'm not sure which number is nuttier.

    Heat dropped 4 places on Hollinger's rankings with the loss vs Chi from 3rd to 7th. Ouch. Blazers could use a few blow outs vs Utah!

    Hearing this strong: Rockets determined to trade Omer Asik by Dec. 19 at latest and have ramped up discussions with potential trade partners

    Marc Stein ‏@ESPNSteinLine 38m
    Reason Dec. 19 is significant is because anyone Rockets get would be eligible to be re-packaged in new deal on trade-deadline day (Feb. 20)

    Marc Stein ‏@ESPNSteinLine 37m
    You can liken this to Thomas Robinson situation. Everyone knew Rockets were moving him by draft day ... it's just of matter of where now

    Marc Stein ‏@ESPNSteinLine 35m
    Specific window to keep eye on for Rockets moving Asik is Dec. 15 (when last summer's free-agent signees become trade-eligible) to Dec. 19

    Sam Amick ‏@sam_amick 13m
    With @ESPNSteinLine reporting Rox ramped up Omer Asik talks, a quick note: last I was told by rival team, Houston still seeking lottery pick

    That's laughable. Asik isn't worth a lotto pick in this draft.
