and now Nash's back is hurt...wow

This is what happens when you play a 39 year old PG 40+ minutes a night, after he JUST came back from a bad knee injury. The hits just keep on coming with Mike.

I definitely miss those drives in the lane, but gotta learn how to fall.

I'd be surprised if he lasted more than 5 years. He drives recklessly with no regard for his body at all.

they wont be able to play at that pace in the playoffs when everything slows down. That's when we'll see what they're really made of.

Who cares? They're not contending for a championship like the Knicks are. They're a young team and I think most of us expect them to get bounced out of the first round.

There was a time when I used to blame D'Antoni's struggles on Melo. :lol:

What a difference a year makes. Melo is playing at an MVP level, and D'Antoni just seems to have no clue what to do in LA.

Houston offense is really good, but their defense is very suspect. below .500 in their conference 7-12, really beating up on the East teams who don't play at a very fast pace and lack a good guard combo or had guards recovering.

They remind me Denver ... the new hot team, but got exposed in the playoffs and has had a hard time this year. They just have a really good center piece in Harden, but sometimes shrink in the playoffs.

Lin and Rockets haters out in full force. Most of the posters on this board had the Rockets pegged as the worst team in the league this season. Now it's "they are good but not built for the playoffs" and "but, but, Lin has a lot of turnovers".
