Daniels hits a 3.

Celtics are terrible. Rondo was toying with triple double.

Canaan about the same as previous season.

celts kept shooting 3s when they're not a good 3pt shooting team...weird...they have sully who is very good down low, but didn't post him enough on tjones... and rondo still can't shoot.

Didn't get to see much of the game tonight, but the score looks good!

I heard that Harden continued to show improvement on defense and that Jones is continuing with solid play.

Looks like Canaan got some shots, but how did he look on the floor? Confident? Jittery?

How about Papanikolaou?

Lmao! Terrence Jones, once again sending his doubters on one heck of a roller-coaster ride. :wink:

Welp, that was a swing and a miss. :lol:

Good game, and good luck on your mission this season.

I dont know who made the schedule but he Sherly is a friend of the Houston Rockets.

The god awful Lakers
A young sub .500 utah team
A sub .500 team in the Leastern Conference
and then next game we're playing tank commander Philadelphia 76 million ping pong balls.

We would win 60 games if we're in the East.

i thought this was gonna be a sure win but a 3-4 posession game.

on paper, before the season the celtics looked like they could be a team fighting for a spot in the east playoffs. rondo surrounded by sully, kelly, green, bradley, bass, smart, turner, thornton, gerald, zeller. thats a long list of talent, even if it averages out to mediocre talent. u dont need much in the leastern conference. might just need som time.

I'm actually surprised that the Rockets are beating teams that they are supposed to beat. I wanna see what this squad can do against the Spurs.

Well we smashed them as expected and it's great to see the Rockets beating the teams they should. I was disappointed by the attendance, however. Houston needs to represent stronger than that for the best team in the city.

T Jones got it done in a big way and Harden continues his MVP season with vastly improved defense. Man I'm glad Parsons is gone ssince Ariza is making the team much better.

Also congrats to Isaiah on a very strong start against two talented defenders.

3-0!

How much longer are you going to keep bashing Parsons? He's played pretty well the last 2 games after his debut.
Rockets started off 3-0 last year too against Charlotte, Dallas and Utah before getting killed by Clippers in Game 4.
Harden is still a work-in-progress. He can score, but he can't help his teammate that much - Yao Ming
