I really don't like the Rockets- Harden, Parsons and Dwight (and Morey) are very unlikeable, so I'll be rooting against them come playoff time!
I find them very likable especially the type of ball they play and the system they run.
They come across as a**holes- haven't forgotten Dwights antics the past two seasons.
I agree about Dwight and Harden. Not sure about Parsons.

I don't care about specific players. I care about how they play as a "team".

Really bad night for Lin. He was indecisive. CP3 went off but against Parsons. McHale tried to be cute and have Lin and Harden guard somebody else. It didn't work. When Lin is not aggressive he is useless. He should not be a spot up shooter because he is not. I really don't understand McHale's thinking. Beverley is perfect for this team. He plays off Harden really well and same with Lin. It's one game and according to the Houston color team the LA Clippers has always had Rockets number. They swept them this year even with Beverley and Dwight in the lineup.

I really like this kid Canaan. Think he'll be a nice fill-in for P-Bev. 14 pts. in the loss to the Clippers. See how he develops. He's gonna get some meaningful time now..

I am luke warm. He made some really stupid decisions but then again he is a rookie. He has some skills but I am not sure if I like him or not.

The rockets have a nice developmental program. Canaan has spent a good part of the year playing in the dleague rather than riding the pine in Houston.
Philly up 10 at the half.
ray maccullum looks really good for the Kings. Can't remember seeing him get many minutes when I have watched the kings in the past
The Indiana Pacers is not who we thought they were. Lance and Hill had to be separated in the huddle in last nights game against the Spurs.
It's time for somebody to mention Vogel may have lost that team.

Wow. I saw hibbert's selfish guys comment but didnt know about this. They took on some guys that haven't always been strong team guys. I wonder if that is part of their problems.

When Larry Bird made a comment to the press about how players need to be held accountable and be told to play hard all the time, to me that was a sign that he wasn't pleased with head coach Vogel "the baby face leader" of the Pacers
Nets looking good. I think Plumlee will give the Knicks frontline a tough time tomorrow. He is quick and very active.
Gutierez getting a lot of minutes for the Nets. Looks like a rotation player. Doesn't make mistakes and looks better than Murry.
Asik is a very good defensive and rebounding center.

He is. The nets got quite a player in Plumlee also.
If they can get BroPez healthy they should trade him and get rid of his salary and resign Blatch and Livingston.
BKN ball movement is fun to watch.
Yes, Plum has developed nicely.
if NJ keeps it up JKidd should be in the Coach of the Year talks.
I think it should go to Hornacek
Pop deserves it too but Hornacek and Phx are the much bigger surprise.
Kidd has NJ playing really solid ball. kudos
horrible goal tending call
Asik has horrible hands ugh

Vogel had it but is losing it. I agree about pop, they have the best record.
Jason Coach of the month for the second time. He is in the conversation.

Their D tonight was excellent. Kidd finishes strong he is in the convo.
Still vote for horny. Phx was not predicted to win more that 20 games.
