The majority of the team spent Thanksgiving with DJ and his family. Hopefully they didn't eat too much and are ready to go tonight.

[Neddy]

this is the gut check moment. we beat Houston and we regain our status as a contender. we lose tonight then we are just another middle of the road playoff team that can't beat elite teams.

[Neddy]

just noticed dwight isn't in the starting lineup, is he hurt?

He's missed a few games. They're pretty banged up right now.

well, knowing that this team has yet to get all of its cylinders firing, this is probably a good news. lets hope we don't piss away this opportunity.

[LACtdom]

Great test for our 3pt defense.
With Howard out, we have no excuse not to win the rebounding battle.

[Quake Griffin]

no reason in having a let down now.

i said it last thread.
no bitching or whining about people saying we haven't done it against the good teams. it's early.
kick the banged up rockets' dick's in the dirt.

we'll worry about the good teams when they come up on the schedule.

[Neddy]

yes we got the ball to start

[Neddy]

oh boy.... that's an early foul on CP3....

[Quake Griffin]

lame start.

[Neddy]

oh my Buddha, Mohammed, Moses and Christ! these Houston broadcasters are the worst i ever heard of in NBA. this is Joe Buck bad. maybe worse.

thank you NBA for not allowing me to get the Southern Cal broadcast and forcing me to stream this from NBATV and listen to their announcers even though i pay for League Pass.

I know Clyde went to U of H but for him to do broadcasting work for Houston and not being involved in any way with the Blazers is truly a tragedy.

[Quake Griffin]
