    Crabbe fuckin robbed Harden twice there at the end. Those were some huge steals. If he could keep up that level of defense and jack up some threes our bench would be legit.

    Imagine if we had Ed Davis. Even this years version. I miss him.

    He's got great length. To me he's always been a better defender than some think. I know the stats say otherwise but I don't care. He often gets matched up with the other teams best perimeter scorer. There's a reason for that. He can definitely get frustrating with his touch fouls, but tonight you saw why he does it.

    No. As much as I hate to say it, I'd rather play Aminu/Meyers at the back-up positions than this year's Ed.

    He had a hard time seeing the rim after harkless grabbed him by the beard and skull fucked his eyes out. Im sure he will blame the wrist injury he acquired from stroking his own ego.

    Also, he's only ever played for Terry "What-fense?" Stotts. Crabbe has the tools to be an above-average defender, but playing on a suck defensive team, in a suck defensive system, is not a recipe for having positive individual defensive stats.

    Yeah, every player has a sprained wrist on their shooting hand, no way that would affect his shot...Harden missed one game (due to suspension for the Lebron Kick) the past 3 years. It's alright to give players a little credit.

    Cool posts by you. Seriously. I would do the same if I were in a Houston forum. It amazes me that we have two of our own posters, that talk more shit about our team, than a Rockets fan does. Over, and over, and over................................................

    Actually, I've been reading more general insults towards portland. Go figure. Like Houston is some bastion of Class A Infrastructure and Citizenry.
