Game 71: Rockets @ Thunder 7PM 3/22

[Mr. E]

Big one tonight against the Thunder! Twelve games left in the season and the Rockets sit at a .500 record and the 7th seed in the West. If the Rockets can play up to their ability they can beat this team, which is important because there is still a possibility that these two teams may face each other in Round 1.

There cannot be a slow start. They can't have cold spells. Not against this team.

We already know that the Rockets are hated up there because of the Harden trade, and then the Beverley/Westbrook incident. Just imagine how hated they will be next year when KD is in a Rocket uniform!

I'm hoping for a big game from Howard. I'm hoping that he feels like he has something to prove. The team needs a lot from Motiejunas, Ariza and Super-Beasley as well.

Go Rockets!

The thunder blow a lot of big leads, the rockets make big comebacks (even though they shouldn't have to half the time) it'll be interesting

I'm sure this will go well

[Mr. E]

Shaq & Lisa Leslie talking about using Stickum and not knowing it was illegal.

That was such a non-controversy.

[Mr. E]

I do love that Bev got the first basket!

[K_chile22]

Forcing turnovers being aggressive. I like it. I love when we play the Thunder because James always goes off and you know Bev and Westbrook hate each other lol

What are you talking about? Dwight obviously deserved to be exiled from the league for all eternity for the damage he's done to the integrity of the game

There's no green font color option on my phone lol

I appreciate the invite, and I'll check it out from time to time, but as you can see by my profile I'm pretty much a RealGM guy. We are currently at a real low in participation, but I'm hoping that it picks back up as fortunes improve.

Go Rockets!

Lisa Leslie talked about how the stuff was always in the locker room and she had no idea that it was illegal. Shaq just chipped in after she was done talking and before the break saying "I always used it" or something like that.

[Mr. E]

OKC right back in it. It's going to be like this all night, I'm thinking.

[Mr. E]

Solid first quarter, marred by that OKC run at the end. You can never fall asleep against this team. Way too much talent.

[K_chile22]

Ariza has been so bad for so long. Sigh. He was on fire for awhile after the new year but it feels like he can't shoot at all anymore

Nap time already?

[K_chile22]

Hey JB. Dmo was playing well. We can't score. Maybe put him back in?

Dion Waiters looks better than Ariza and Brewer. Smh.
