    And to think we have a large contingency of nimrods who would replace adelman at the drop of a hat.

    I'm usually one of the first guys to rip Miller to pieces, but he really was the key to the 2nd half resurgence. He and Martin were running Adelman's offense to perfection, and Miller was dropping dimes, including a dump down to Hayes and a pin-point lob to Martin for a 3-ball after a Jordan Hill screen.

    He has absolutely no lift, and is so immobile on defense it's down right laughable, but he converted a clutch and-1 (credit Chuckwagon for the dime) and a key mid-range J late in the game.

    Also, Lowry was really giving Paul fits... his physical nature was frustrating CP3 down the stretch.

    Heck of a game.

    Best part was watching Lowry eat Paul's lunch.
    And when he got tangled with Miller, and Miller just pushed him.

    We lose this game without Miller tonight. People on this board don't understand what his role is on this team. The offense flows through Miller from the high post. A lot of what he does doesn't show up in the boxscore, but he makes the players around him better. Earlier this year Hill played his best when paired with Miller, Patterson plays his best when paired with Miller, and we saw tonight how well Hayes played with Miller. It's too bad people on this board don't understand how Miller helps this team.

    Another reason why this win was so big is this keeps the possibility alive that the Rockets could win the tiebreaker over New Orleans if they can beat them again in New Orleans later in the season. Could be huge.

    EDIT: We'd be above .500...for some reason I thought we were 28-31 before this game. Forgot to add the win vs. the Nets haha.
