    I think the last time I looked at the rankings we were 29th in the league at -3.2

    Damnit this could be just the game the Clippers needed to get into stride. Houston still really does not impress me at all.

    Well it's not like the Rockets aren't missing 3 starters and their backup PG. They have been healthy for about 3 games now and still have a great record to show for it and while playing the leagues best defense...

    Kobe misses a straight on shot that would've won the game. Wolves give up 119 points and still win. I can't wait for Sunday.

    I think that has more to do with the fact they only play 4 playoff teams in that 14 game stretch.

    Looks like Charlotte drew the short straw.

    64-28 Atlanta up at the half.

    Wow 32 points with 9 minutes left in the 3rd. Somebody must have turned charlottes sliders all the way down...

    That was a crazy stat that they just showed in the Mavs/Sixers game. The last 6 teams to lose by 50 or more points have won the re-match and of course the Sixers are doing their darndest to break that streak tonight.

    How? How can anyone honestly say that James Harden is enjoyable to watch? It's the same damn drive to the lane and flop around every time. Even if you are a Rockets fan how can that be fun to watch?

    Not really at all. Rockets fans actually watch him every night and probably know more about Harden then the casual fan does.

    He crosses guys up on the regular and drains threes in the eye on the regular as well. Not only that he gets rebounds and assists and fills the stat sheet up. Actually, him, Anthony Davis and Lebron James are top 3 in total points, rebounds, assists...so yeah...his game is more than just "Flopping"

    Do you remember that time Parsons went looking for the clutchfans?

    The sad thing is that I honestly agree that his game has more layers than that but to me all that really says is that is just how bad the flopping comes across. He doesn't need that to be a great player because of the other things that he can do on the court. I guess you are OK with it based upon your previous posts but it would drive me crazy if I was a Rockets fan. It's just not part of the game that I like to see on that frequent of a basis. But to each their own I guess.

    And that's real talk. No Portland fan would tolerate such a flopper

    This. I'd even take it a step further and say the gritty/tough players almost always end up being fan favorites.
