I think the Rockets have a better team than OKC but I think people overrate Harden’s supporting cast in order to argue how hard Westbrook has it. Harden isn’t playing with a Big Two, much less a Big Three. Eric Gordon, Patrick Beverly, Ryan Anderson, Trevor Ariza, Nene...I mean these aren’t players that anyone would…

I heard Daryl Morey was offered DeMarcus Cousins for Clint Capela straight up and Morey actually hung up and called back on FaceTime just so he could laugh in Vlade’s face.

I for one certainly hope that starter (!) Ryan Anderson chooses to enter the Hall of Fame as a Houston Rocket despite his having played for a couple of other teams.

Harden elevated his teammates play all season long. Westbrook has hindered the development of all the lottery picks on their roster (there are 7 or 8) and ice’d out his vets, so that when the time has come for them to play without him, they don’t know what to do.

It’s been pretty awesome watching the guy most likely to win the MVP get thumped by the guy who should win the MVP.

Rockets beat reporter is saying that the Rockets requested the review.

It’s Oklahoma. They can just frack for more.

“Just Take these Andrew!”-Jim Irsay

“Kanter’s slowed to a trot!”

Not that I don’t appreciate the craft beer analogy, which stat nerds are sticking up for Kawahi (stat nerds are all Harden, from what I can see).

Not really controversial at all except to Weidman marks. He told the ref he couldn’t continue when he thought he could pick up a DQ win. The right outcome was reached in the end: with Weidman unable to continue and not knowing what was going on, Mousasi was awarded the TKO stoppage due to strikes.

The contest took place at the MGM Hotel and Casino, and the league’s gambling policy prohibits players from appearing at promotional events at casinos.

If the Cardinals continue to play like this we’ll have to stickum near the bottom of the division.

Brock was the worst QB in the league last year (or Goff if he threw enough passes). You don’t even need to make “what if we can make them play like 2014" again projections for Kaep and Cutler. Even in bad seasons for terrible teams they were better than Osweiler playing with a good team.

Houston elected a lesbian mayor (who was eventually term-limited out) and is one of the most diverse cities in the country, so it’s probably safe.

Domestic violence is about control, not anger management. All he’d be telling them or modeling for them is how to manipulate situations with intimate partners.

“He pinched me, so I punched his wrist. It’s like kicking someone in the testicles for throwing a basketball against the ground near your feet.”

“He pinched me, so I punched his wrist. That’s pretty much it. … He does it often, actually. Which is kind of adolescent.” finishing his statement with “real men exaggerate fouls by flailing their leg out and making sure to catch their opponent with a kick to the nuts.”
