Amusing game. Rockets still can put in a run to cut it close, but I love what I'm seeing considering we're undermanned.

the announcers are insanely bad, since when is Rubio a flopper?

Not to mention countless mistakes on players, and crying for calls all game

EMBARRASSING loss for the Rockets. Glad to be on the delivering end for once.

Caught the 4th quarter..Rubio and Chris Johnson look like they could have a connection..KEEP CJ!

I dont think the rockets announcers are that bad. Im glad that they gave us credit for playing well instead of just saying the rockets played bad as an excuse.

btw chris johnson has doen more than steamer as all season. if he can give us this same kind of effort and production iw ouldnt mind keeping him, although i know its too early too tell.

honestly the steamer shouldnt even be in the nba.

i know houston didn't really show up, but still there was energy there in the second half we havent seen in awhile. Hope the new guys can bring that again.

I really think we found a keeper in CJ. His Length and Tenacity this game was such a huge boost since we had nothing from our other bigs.

AK47 / CJ / MG / Rubio - this game belongs to you!

ARRRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

Who would have guessed Johnson would come out and give his best effort tonight? Gelabale also provided a Shved-like impact. AK played solid as always. In fact, the entire team gave tremendous energy on both ends of the floor (especially defense).

And as bad as he is, Stiemsma still manages to be much, much, much better than Amundson.

And that's why we can't even consider trading Pek at this point. Our C backups are easily the worst in the league (minus Johnson if he can stick around).

Chris Johnson = MVP

Seriously, the two new guys have already done more than Amundson and Lazar did together.

they've been on a freefall, Portland too. LA and Dallas don't want any either. 8th seed couldn't be any more available.

I sure hope Kahn/Taylor were listening to those MVP chants!

Lazar seems like he was just a placeholder, but I can't help but wonder how Amundson won a spot in camp
