Good job, Memphis. You're richer than you think.

I really want the Rockets to hit the skids. They are a ‘win the press conference team’ that will make a panic trade to get back on course if it feels to them like they are losing momentum. Under the radar Bruce Brown team to me.
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….

Plus Bam basically neutralized JJJ. That was a worse loss than ours.

Not watching the actual game but it appears like up 2 at the line with 1.1 seconds left, Houston decides to make the free throw for some reason. Portland calls timeout and drains a three tying the game.

Houston blowing this is huge. They are going to make a move soon. Phase 2 is in jeopardy.

Just a huge night for the Bruce Brown market. Miami lost to Grizz. Mavs getting blown out. Houston loses to Blazers.

So you can boo a player and say you suck but you can't say go on a treadmill? I can only imagine how much money that guy spent on that ticket.

Cmon Rockets

Panic already

That is a good place for both Poeltl and Brown. Both those guys would help give Houston best bench in the league, or at least one of the absolute top.

Remains an annoyance to me that coaches will sabotage their teams like this. There is no role for a short, unathletic guard in a last second game ending defensive possession. You sub him out and put any tall defender you have and tell everyone to switch. At least it didn't cost them a playoff game like it did us.

I mean, he banked in a three falling sideways. Sometimes guys just make shots in the NBA.
9. Similarly, IF THOU HAST SPENT the entire offseason predicting that thy team will stink, thou shalt not gloat, nor even be happy, shouldst thou turn out to be correct. Realistic analysis is fine, but be a fan first, a smug smarty-pants second.
