    The offense starts with defense

    Exactly. Which is why I can't imagine it's a good idea to bring in guys like JR Smith and Kyle Korver. Good shooters but minus defenders. Rockets need guys who play both ways no matter what.

    We're getting there. That air of invincibility coming back to us slowly but surely.

    After this game and other games tonight, the Rockets would be in the playoff if the season ended today. The Jazz, Spurs and Lakers would be out of the playoffs. If anyone would of told me Melo games ago, I wouldn't believe it. And we getting Bzdelik in weeks.

    I hope we acquire him. He's coming off injury. Excellent shooter, playmaker, and defender. Complete player. Would be a great understudy to Paul.

    When you get beat by the Mavs you really are hurting "spiritually."

    Wow, even with 22 turnovers we still won by 20!! Crazy

    Remember skinny Clint his first year? He's growing up before our eyes. What a game he played tonight! Great to see Green Light tonight lighting it up. I like Bill Worrell's nickname for Ennis as Ennis the Menace.

    My favorite line of the night goes to Bullard, saying "Those two guys are excited" about James and Clint with a little over a minute left on the clock. I cracked up because they both sat there on the bench all stone faced with blank stares, deep in thought, as if they had just finished having to sadly put their longtime pet dog to sleep.

    the 22 TO's doesn't really show the whole story, We blew this game open in the 3rd and beginning of the 4th. Then we started doing random crap against their bench players that inflated the TO's

    Yeah, I watched the game. Still impressive to win so big even after giving them the ball an extra 22 times.

    Why anyone thinks Deandre Jordan is better than this young bull is beyond me.

    Clint is really freaking good rockets got a bargain deal with him.

    His passing has been much improved this season and his touch around the hoop is phenomenal but his ability to catch literally any pass at any angle and at any speed is elite I don’t know if their is any other big than can do that outside of AD.

    I couldn’t watch the game, could someone give me a summary?? Seems like Paul was hot early and Harden closed it.

    But the energy was much much better in Dallas than in Toyota center IMO. Would love to see TC full from time to time.
