They've got size, so it could be a different type of ballgame tonight.

Is Nene playing tonight?

I feel sorry for people who don't get to watch Harden play all the time. He's so much fun to watch this season!

I can't think of the New Orleans Pelicans without hearing Tony Montana in my head.

Help me.

Who's having the better breakout year: Capela or Dekker?

Rudy is just one of the GREATEST members of this franchise in its entire history.

I haven't been able to watch as much this year, but to me it's Dekker. For some silly reason I always just thought of him as a shooter, but he's been really impressive to watch beyond that.

I think it was the dunk on Kanter that opened my eyes to the fact he is really a bad mofo that can attack the basket and throw the taint down on the opposing victim.

That was glorious.

This whole Rockets team should get 4 points for half of their 3 point shots.

Same here. I was expecting a shooter, and I was shocked by how athletic he is. Some of his finishes around the basket are highlight-worthy.

But of course most will remember him for that one time when he tripped. :lol:

Wow...I am so conditioned to modern TV viewing. I just reached for the remote to fast-forward through the commercials! :lol:

I'm hoping for an early night for Harden tonight...but I really want to see him become the franchise leader in triple-doubles as well!

Just watched a video or kid running off the court as Ariza dunked a steal.

Hopefully this is another half day for the starters

I forgot he is still in the league, honestly.

Asik, too.

:oops:

Having a team that can actually shoot is so fun

K_chile22 · Post #18 » by **K_chile22** » Sat Dec 17, 2016 2:35 am

They need Nene for bulky guys like Brook Lopez, but Montrezl is much better. He's been very good.

Rockets 6 threes away from breaking the record. Free lil Wilt

Eric Dekker is a beast!

Damn, I'm really going to miss Bill.
