Did Harden really just say that he "tries to make an impact on both sides of the floor" every time that he steps on the floor?!  ;D ;D ;D

So does anyone actually like this type of basketball that the Rockets play? I do LOVE the way they crash the offensive boards, but this 3 or paint shot offense gets a bit annoying at times seeing them jack up half a dozen three point attempts in one possession after offensive rebounds.

If we had the horses to crash the glass like them, we'd have their record.

They get a lot of long rebounds because of the number of 3's they take, and their guards end up getting a lot of those O. rebounds.  We certainly have those "horses".  Capela is their only elite rebounder among the bigs.

What do people think about TNT's Player's Only Show? I think it has some potential to be a really good show if moderated right (which C-Webb seems to be improving in each week).

Wizards looking really fatigued again. Down 28-12 in the first quarter with Five to go still.

jeeze. Hopefully they fall apart down the stretch. But just enough to keep us as their second round matchup.

Rubio already has 10 assists.

That is craziness.

The more I watch them, the less I worry about them in the playoffs. They seem extremely reliant on scoring in the open court on fast breaks (5th in the league I think), which isn't as conducive to winning in the playoffs when the game slows down. They're also pretty reliant on a favorable whistle to get to the line a lot, especially Wall.

There's also the fact that their starters have played huge minutes this season, which is going to affect them sooner or later.

This run of theirs ultimately reminds me of the Hawks big run a couple of years back. I think they fizzle out in the playoffs and show they were never really as good as they were on this current run.

I am so glad we didn't pick Dunn. Every time I've watched him he just makes dumb play after dumb play. He seems to have a really low BBIQ, which is crazy given the fact that he's such an old rookie. He's really hurting them tonight with costly fouls and turnovers at inopportune times.

EDIT: There he goes again fouling Beal for a 4 point play.

This is ridiculous.

Washington has all these deficits every game yet somehow comes back...

Yet again lead down to single digits for T-Wolves.

10 point lead, 3 minutes to go.

Lets hope they don't pull a Blazers here...

Timberpuppies might actually pull this off, even though they've done pretty much everything in their power to give this game away.
