So Jazz lost last night. If we win tonight, that vaults us up to 7th. Huge game tonight at Dallas.
Tonight is pretty close to a must win for us. Hope the guys show up engaged.
Let's go Rockets!

I can't decide if I'll be more glass half empty or glass half full if we win tonight.
I selfishly want to be able to watch Rockets playoff basketball.

In the days after Yao/Tmac and before Harden/Dwight, I was all in favor of tanking to rebuild through the draft.
This go around I don't feel the same way. We have the talent to do well in the postseason (although now it's probably too late for that since we are looking at 7/8 seed). But we showed last year what this team can do when the effort is there. But the idea of us purposely tanking and missing the playoffs with this roster would not sit well with me

Also should we be hiring a private investigator to see if JB murdered Terrence Jones and Josh Smith? Like I'm all for TJ never playing for us again, but talk about going 100 to 0 real quick.
I completely forgot about TJ. Is he healthy and just out of the rotation?

I'm good either way. I win may show some momentum going into the playoffs. A loss and we probably keep the pick.

Smith played a few minutes for the first time in weeks on Sunday. TJ may have already seen his last game action for the Rockets. Beasley came in and those guys went in to the witness protection program.

Westbrook, Durant, and Ibaka all sitting out tonight against the Blazers. I know we are more concerned with Utah and Dallas, but damn.
Pretty much a fight between Dallas, Utah, and Houston for 7,8, and out

KJ in the starting lineup. That is really unexpected. A month ago that guy was buried at the end of the bench.

They want the Grizzlies in the first round so they're giving the Blazers a game
Great ball movement to start
Beverly takes an elbow from Pachulia that will probably need stitches. But somehow no foul call.
What a bunch of bums. Are you kidding me?!
A disgrace to the game of basketball. Screw this team.
JJ Barea looks like Allen Iverson out there.
The body language of the team is enough to take you to a Royce White level of depression
I've never been more livid at Rockets team than right now. THEYRE NOT EVEN TRYING AND ITS THE MOST IMPORTANT GAME OF THE YEAR.
Cut them all.
Cut them all.
I ****ing hate devin Harris always have. Little *****
Harden looks like he needs a nap. Show some heart.

Pachulia is a goon. One of the games against San Antonio this year he leg whipped Danny Green, tried to pull a kelly olynyk on Kawhi, and had one other dirty play before he got tossed. He was trying to injure people.
Making it a game again
"Dwight Howard coming alive"....and it only took him 2 and a half quarters

Dwight telling Beasley to iso Dirk and it worked. Funny stuff.
Dwight has been pretty aggressive tonight
quote:It's typical Dwight though. Turns it on when he feels like it. He's a force of nature right now, but its only like 15% of the time these days.

Nice inbounds by Terry to Dwight with 0.2 left on the clock
Nice push by Dwight that went uncalled, but still a nice play.
