"Our players knew we were going to win so kinda let up on defense." Kevin Mchale
"Screw Stern!" Me
Basically...
this spurs fan was in the game preview last wendsday vs the spurs in SA (we lost in OT) as you guys know…
There was discussion about who was better, Lowry or Parker. Basically Parker does 1 or 2 things at an elite level, and Kyle does about 7-8 things very well. Basically a blonde/brunette, ass/boobs debate.
The bet was to add up Parker’s total points, assists, and rebounds and compare it to Lowry’s. If Parker had more, I would put up a Spurs avatar and he would put up a Rockets picture. Well TP had a season high in points and I lost the bet. It was only good until they played again, which was tonight. However, I offered the bet several hours before the tipoff. And after the game, he goes or whatever. It doesn’t it’s done with. Go Rockets.
temporary avatar change...
duncan not playing

Well
Mark Cuban, Kevin O’leary, and 3 other very rich “investors” hear out business pitches where they ask for a certain amount of money for a percentage of the business. The sharks compete with each other for the opportunity to buy into the businesses.

Stupid Clyde
The increased turnovers for Lowry are due to the fact that the offense runs through him now. Last year we ran through the high post with Scola and Chuck. Now we’re a little more standard on offense.

The turnover thing really to me, is what separates Lowry from the truly elite point guards from my perspective.
Minnesotan Rockets fan
Disagree
Deron Williams, Steve Nash, Russell Westbrook, Rajon Rondo, LeBron James, and John Wall all average more turnovers per 48 minutes than Lowry.

Lowry only needs 8 points, 9 assists, and 9 rebounds for a triple double!
So close!

Wow, that came out meaner than I wanted it to
I just meant that the I’m always surprised when players come back from “flu-like symptoms” so soon. Usually I just assume they had a cold/fever. But if it’s the real flu it can keep you out of commission for a week or even longer.

Looks like McHale is figuring out how to mix and match the starters and the bench
Good combinations so far
Goran can play with the starters and Lowry can steady the bench
(well also because Pops inserted Parker into the game at this point)
Big change I've seen is putting in Dragic earlier
Then giving Lowry some minutes with the second team. Kept everyone comfortable.

Can y'all imagine that Jordan Hill would've been our starting center had Dalembert not signed last minute?
That would’ve been brutal…
Check out The Dream Shake.
I've been really impressed with Dalembert.
"Each in turn... volunteered his suggestions, his invaluable suggestions."
Crap just knock Parker on his ass.
Let him shoot FT.
"Each in turn... volunteered his suggestions, his invaluable suggestions."
Couldn't agree more...
He is a big time french pussy too so it may even make him cry… Best NBA moment ever was when Steve Nash had blood pouring out of his head from going head-to-head with Parker, and he was leaning over Parker trying to see if he was alright (followed shortly by Parker sprinting back to the bench for the blood time out)…

I don't particularly dislike him.
I just think when he’s running wild you can slow him down with a couple of hard fouls. Nothing dirty, just make him earn it at the line.

It's hard to stop Parker from penetrating short of doubling him. Courtney did a better job as the quarter wore on.
I prefer letting Parker shoot than passing off to his teammates and giving them confidence though

Dalembert is a swat machine tonight.

John Stockton
gets called dirty because he transitioned from the old days, where everyone played that way, to the modern era where we needed to have a rule on the length of shorts (1" above the knee) and never calling traveling/carrying.
Oh, and because he was the best pure PG of all time.
On a side note, they should’ve had a rule on the length of shorts in the pre-90s era as well…

contrary to what Lancearmstrong thinks, lol
I don't know.
So, I’ve got an article talking a little about this going up tomorrow: the Rockets could, by amnestying Scola and declining all their options, have something like $35 million in cap space next year.
Kahn is an idiot, and might not match if you sign him to a max deal.
How about Wade?

Maybe
Wade duplicates Lebron at a less premium position… If I were Pat Riley I’d have a nice long think about it, at least.

Plus you add a good defensive center, a PG who can make that team run run run., and a premium scoring SG with a great 3pter.

So I was thinking about going to this game, because I was going into the city to go see the King Tut exhibit at the Museum of Fine Arts
And I was kind of amazed by how expensive the seats were. Like, even the cheap stuff was well over $30/seat, and since those seats suck (and they rarely let you move up) I just decided against it.
I get that it’s a spurs game, so the attendance isn’t as dismal as it might be, but it was pretty annoying. For a team with such shitty attendance, the Rockets charge a lot for seats.
At least ’stros tickets are dirt cheap.

I don't know why. Sometimes, when I get really hungry and I get a sub, that sandwich is so clutch.
But, like, a good sub, fluffy bread, not dry, proper amounts of ingredients without too much BS lettuce filler. God damn I can’t get a good New York style sub down here…
Lettuce is generally evil.

god coaching ... the reason both goran and kyle are in is bec a while back Spurs were doubling kyle

I honestly don't mind the Rockets announcers.
If you aren’t going have announcers who really can show the nuances of the game to you, and we’re obviously not going for that in Houston, then at least have pleasant announcers.

But he isn't pleasant...
He just whines and cries.
I’d really like it if they took Bill Brown off of the ’stros broadcasts for a few years and put him on the Rockets (do it, Comcast!). Sure, Jim Deshaies and the Astros would suffer, but the Rockets would probably wildly improve.
I predicted 105-101...

So that the Rockets will be worn out before the ASG and never recover.

He didn't die yet
On Saturday night, CBSSports.com published an unsubstantiated report that former Penn State coach Joe Paterno had died. That mistake was the result of a failure to verify the original report. CBSSports.com holds itself to high journalistic standards, and in this circumstance, we fell well short of those expectations.
