Houston 8-1 at home. 0-6 on the road.

Is that sample size too small? I'm curious about the combined records of the teams they play at home versus on the road.

It’s not that small.  A couple of the teams they’ve played in the road they’ve beaten at home, and their road losses include one to the 3-14 Spurs.  Houston is one of two winless road teams this year.  They have played nearly the fewest games on the road, which matters bit, but they’re particularly bad away from home.  They’ll probably win their first road game in a couple of weeks when they’re at Memphis, but they’ve had a very home heavy start which has been to their advantage.

Kawhi is looking more and more like himself these days. I'm not a big fan of the Clippers' roster construction; I don't think they have enough size. However, they could make some noise come playoff time if Kawhi maintains this form.

34/9/3 tonight while shooting 14/18 from the field.

Should be Washington, but it’s Detroit.

Jaquez Jr. is as good as I thought he'd be... :(

This is why I find it hard to really take Milwaukee seriously. Their record looks good, but they're barely winning games against low-level competition. And that's with having one of the easiest schedules thus far. For example, they're down 10 in the middle of the fourth in Chicago tonight, who doesn't have Lavine OR Derozan tonight. Yet we beat Chicago with both of them by 27 the other night, even not having KP.

Perhaps they figure it out, but it just seems like a mediocre team.

At least he was off the board well before our pick, so he can’t be your new Bane.

Halliburton is as good as I thought he’d be.

JAQUEZZZZZ just doesn't have the same ring to it.

Nearly fully healthy Bucks lose to the Bulls without Lavine or Derozan. Crazy.

They've been really good in clutch thus far, but they were bad tonight - at least in OT. The Bulls' defensive guards really clamped down Lillard and wouldn't let him get going.

Bucks lose in OT. Gad dang I love seeing them fail for some reason. I think I just hated the hype around ageing point guards who get traded to make superteams (Kemba) and who play no defense.

So that begs the question, come playoff time, is Philly the bigger threat in the East?
