    I don't know if it's the first time I've done it, but I was shaking my head the entire time when I did.

    I never watch highlights after losses cause it doesn't mean anything.

    As Paramore said, and I say to dame: you are the only exception.

    Wide open look and a good pass to a guy who can make that shot. You make that pass every time in every game.

    ^^^ That looks very much like the Rockets offense when D'Antoni was there. Either a '3', or a lay up.

    Sure. Dame was heavily covered. What killed me was how badly he bricked it. He shot 2 from there that were exactly the same. It was just really depressing at that point in the game.

    I agree. I'm sure he was kicking himself. Melo, Simons, Roco all missed wide open looks but those two from Powell i was just sure were gonna drop. They were clean looks from the corner where he makes that shot.

    Just looking back at Dame's stats from the other night. He also blocked three shots and he didn't commit a foul in 52 minutes. He was a plus-2 in a 7-point loss.

    .

    .

    .

    Also looking at RHJ being minus-21 in 9 minutes ....

    He's unplayable. Plus every time he's on the court I'm afraid he's going to injure one of our guys.
