Houston, We Have a Problem: Rockets Down 76ers.
Posted on 23 Feb 2012 by Mike Rapine.
The Philadelphia 76ers were hoping a return visit to the Toyota Center in Houston would yield similar results to their most recent fortunes they’ve experienced at the expense of the hometown Rockets. Winning their last four in Houston and seven of the last eight against the Rockets, Wednesday night appeared to be the perfect remedy for the 76ers to right the ship and end their season-high fou...

Durant Throws On His Cape Just in Time
Posted on 7 Jan 2012 by Steven Jones.
For two and a half quarters, the Oklahoma City Thunder seemed content to watch Goran Dragic and Luis Scola run a shooting drill. Playing the Houston Rockets for the second time in 24 hours appeared to bore the Thunder's youngsters, who treated defense as something to hurry through in order to get the ball back. This malaise was most evident in the third quarter, when Dragic scored 12 points wit...

Spoiler Alert: Clippers Can Play a Major Role in the Playoff Picture
Posted on 16 Mar 2011 by Taylor Smith.
Incredibly, the 2010-11 season for the Los Angeles Clippers is winding down, and we've got just 14 games to go. Sadly, our Clippers won't be finding themselves involved first-hand in the upcoming playoffs, but enough has happened this season to give fans (and the team itself, for that matter) legitimate cause for excitement moving forward. (Note: This may or may not have anything to do with Bla...

Clippers-Rockets Preview (Jan. 26)
Posted on 26 Jan 2011 by Taylor Smith.
The Clippers are hurting. No, not because they blew a 15-point lead last night on their way to a 112-105 loss to the Dallas Mavericks (although that certainly can't help things, either). They're hurting physically. Franchise cornerstone Blake Griffin suffered a left elbow contusion after being thrown to the ground late in the third quarter Tuesday night by the Mavericks' Brendan Haywood. He r...

Back to Basics
Posted on 11 Jan 2011 by Michael Johnson.
Just a few short years ago the Celtics traveled to Houston in one of the most anticipated regular season match-ups in recent memory. After 48 minutes of play, Boston came out on top 90-69, snapping the Rockets improbable 21 game winning streak. A few days later they defeated the Dallas Mavericks, also on the road, to complete the sweep of the Texas triangle. That was the moment I was offici...

Knicks/Warriors – Win Of The Season
Posted on 20 Nov 2010 by Jordan Lauterbach.
In case you fell asleep, here are five somewhat connected thoughts on Friday night’s Knick win over the Golden State Warriors 1. Bad road trip? What bad road trip? – Sometimes teams defy logic. The Knicks appear to be one of those teams. Remember on Sunday after the Rockets game when I shuttered (in type, of course) about the Knicks West Coast Swing? Two wins and a two point loss to a t...

Bad Weekend Sheds Light on Major Flaws
Posted on 15 Nov 2010 by Jordan Lauterbach.
Two games, two more bad losses. The misery continues in Knick land on this Monday morning. Is it just me, or has this Knick team regressed in the last ten days? Is it just me or has the continuity within the offense become worse since John Wall and company left the building last Friday night? Night after night the team looks like they were drafted to play together five minutes before tip off. D...

Mason in…Curry out?
Posted on 6 Aug 2010 by Jordan Lauterbach.
The Knicks may have lost out on Shannon Brown (two year re – up with LA imminent), but they didn’t miss out on Rodger Mason. Mason is set to agree on a one year deal with the club. The contract, according to realgm.com, is worth 1.4 million. Mason has averaged 7 points per game and little else during his six year career. He averaged 6.2 points in under 20 minutes for the Spurs last year. ...

Lakers-Rockets Pre-Game 3: Points to Ponder
Posted on 8 May 2009 by Josh Hoffman.
· Successful Starts: The Lakers have strived on hitting the ground running and thus scoring a relatively large amount of points in the first quarter; in Game 1’s loss they dropped 18 in the opening frame; in Game 2’s win: 39 · Transition Offense: The Rockets haven’t been able to keep up with the Lakers in the open court; the Lakers upped their fast-break point di...
