PRESEASON Rockets v. Magic

Starting right now. NBA LP is airing this game (they've only aired selected pre season games). So, with the free preview, you should be able to get it; though it's probably blacked out to those in the area..

Interesting that we've rolled with Smith and Asik for a big stretch in this second quarter now..

I like Smith at backup 5 more than Dmo to be honest.

Smith has a wide body, good rebounder, good defender, tough guy, big hand. Remind me of chuck Haye without passing.

Yeah, DMo was "meh" when he was playing the 5.

No Lamb in the first half either...

Asik and Greg Smith is an incredible defensive frontcourt. My gawd.

good thing we signed smith more than a year, all 3 years with team options. he showed potential in his rookie year. all he needs to do is limit his fouls and he'll be a solid backup big

Lamb and Dmo appears to be out of the rotation. White drove 2000+ miles for this orlando game so i blame bus lag for his inability to do anything on the court.(round trip)

Greg Smith is a big solid body. Backup 5 he is.

Asik and destroy everything.

Livingston displayed some amazing court vision. For the last 2 games, he's been our backup PG not douglas or Machado.

Lin finally has a good game. Hit his open shots. Still struggled inside the paint once he gets there.

Kevin Martin is kevin Martin.

Chandler Parsons perimeter shot looks much more consistent this year.
