Makes sense. 06-07 Rockets bench would have had trouble making a college team.
Morey 2020.

As much as I hate the Lakers I feel we should all appreciate what Jerry Buss' purchase of the team did for the NBA. He got extremely lucky with Magic, but his desire to win is what put allowed Showtime to come together, and that was the reason for basketball's resurgence through the 80's. Without it, Jordan may never have had the opportunity to take the game global.

The '07 Rockets tidbit doesn't surprise me at all. Remember G4 or G5, where we had only four players score the ENTIRE game for our team?

Milwaukee Bucks got JJ Redick??? LMAO. So they're going to start 3 undersized SGs in Redick, Monta, and Jennings? Facepalm!

Reading the GB (didn't watch either game) and By reading comments it looks as is the refs were screwing us and the blazers over...has the working to get the lakers in began already?

We're a young and exciting team with a budding superstar. Shouldn't they be trying to screw the jazz over?

Man, that Lakers game was hard to watch.

Now the Spurs blow it, and Warriors win too.

New Orleans gifted Dallas a win too.

So frustrating b/c all these could have easily gone the other way. :x

No breaks.

Why is it surprising? Jarrett Jack is a talented PG and could start for a handful of teams in this league. This was evident from last year's Hornets team. He was also better than Calderon when he was in Toronto. It's really unfortunate that he's coming off the bench.

New York could use a better starting PG. Felton is just terrible.

lmao i bet the raptors are pissed they didnt trade bargs. he's known as one of the best scoring bigs in the league, but had two straight games with zero points. ONE OF THE BEST SCORING BIGS HAD TWO STRAIGHT GAMES WITH ZERO POINTS! and somehow managed to play worse in the second game :rofl:

couldnt even get one or two points. lord have mercy on all our souls, the basketball gods are not pleased with bargnani at all. there's bound to be some divine intervention coming his way

Really Portland you can't tie the game after Kobe dribbled the ball out of bounds. Talk about a golden opportunity falling in your lap and they can't capitalize on it. And there are the Spurs who just blow a lead to lose it in overtime. No love for the Rockets
