Ugh...Bulls bringing it early.

And Harden has been a bit lazy with the ball.

Again, nice to have Anderson back and shooting from 80 feet behind the line.

Getting completely outclassed here tonight.

I haven't been able to catch a game in a while now, and I was thinking of trying to find a stream to see some of this one.

Tell me it is worth the effort, and that I am foolish if I choose not to do so.

Well, they managed to come back and briefly get the lead. At least it is competitive now.

First to 50! How did that happen? :lol:

That was a great exchange between Harden & Nene on that basket.

Welp, tuned in just in time to see them go from being down 1 to taking a 7 point lead into the half.

Note to self: skip the first quarter from now on.

Mr. E's Halftime Thoughts -

What an impressive second quarter! This Rockets team has shown a lot of their flaws tonight; and that first quarter was entirely forgettable. I've mentioned it already, but it is nice to have Anderson around. I know that he is not on for every game; but the guy is a truly integral part of this team and they need him every game.

The Bulls are a weird team to me. At one moment they look like world-beaters; but then they look completely discombobulated.

The bench is showing up tonight, and the guys need that if they have any hope of advancing. I was legit scared with the possible injury to Nene and then damn near lost my mind when Harden could have been hurt. This is a deep team; but it is not a deep team, if that makes sense. They need everyone on the roster.

It is just so awesome that they've managed to build a roster that is so in-synch with one another.

This should be a fight from here on out; but I'm also thinking that Chicago could fracture a bit. Keep it up, Rockets!

GO ROCKETS!

That is the same attitude carried by those who have lower-bowl tickets in Toyota Center! :lol:

Dolly Parton has really huge....lips.

Yes, that's what I was going to say and totally what I was thinking.

Also, nice start to the third quarter, too.

I am officially re-naming Ryan Anderson.

He is the Spaceman.

The man creates space!

SPACEMAN!!!

Come on, guys - let's coin this one!

Hmmm...not bad, but if you made it Spaceboy in honor of Sir Bowie, it would be even cooler. But he is no boy, he is a man, so that won't do.

Spaceman it is.

Can I at least post the video for Hallo Spaceboy every time he hits a game winner?
