    Man, watching this shit. Rollercoaster of emotions. When Batum missed that 3 my heart literally sank. Then the crazy scramble that got Mo a 3.....Just insane.

    Actually he reminds me of Von Wafer.

    Dude is killer though. His jumpshot looks good every single time it leaves his hands. To be honest he would be a great backup here.

    I can't believe how lucky they are that they picked him up from the D league trash heap, threw him in the game in desperation, and he starts hitting shots like Reggie Miller.

    Not really the trash heap. He played for their D-League team and made the most threes of anyone in the D-League.

    If they're going to keep sending him out there though I'd try to exploit him on defense. The guy is pretty small for a shooting guard. Post him up.

    this. the one time he came over to try and contest Wesley's layup/would be dunk he disappeared. Thought for a moment Wesley ate him.

    He's a specialist in an area the Rockets badly need for this series. With his ability to shoot, there should always be a place for him on an NBA roster.

    I think it was Wright, but he did hit his hand on the follow-through. I saw it clearly last night on TV. I yelled at first b/c I thought it was phantom, but the replay showed it good.

    Physical appearance? I don't think their games are similar.

    Did anyone else see the Rockets bench holding on to Mo when he landed in their laps? Seemed like they kept him from getting up for at least five or six seconds. Maybe that's what he was chipping about after the game?

    That doesn't appear to happen in the video Mags linked. Maybe you're remembering a different play.

    I think was a few minutes before the linked play. I remember still hoping to see the replay at the time Mo hit the three...
