I have that under the game time and all that good stuff. But I think I realized while they're looking to leave, I couldn't find any good pictures of it. Looks like a crap arena.

Arco arena looks like a movie theatre

Tank Fight GO!

Nothing like Jermaine Oneal goaltending Harden's 3 pointer last night to give the Rockets the win to preserve the Suns tank.

bout between the Rockets and Suns in Houston looked to be headed to overtime when James Harden's buzzer-beating attempt for the lead couldn't find the twine. That's when Jermaine O'Neal decided he had someplace else to be.

:hihi:

What an idiot

it's just b/c during last night's game I said he wasn't playing tonight so to play his heart out

coaches told me to STFU

Wow, what a game by Drummond. He and Monroe dominated together starting in the front court.

I didn't get to see it. How did Drummond score? Was mostly putbacks, cuts, and lobs? Or did he actually post someone up?

Putbacks and dunks. The scary thing is, he doesn't need to do anything. Monroe does all the work and puts up the shot and all he has to do is stand under the basket collect the rebounds and putback. Detroit is going to be scary for a long time.

Crazy to think that some Detroit fans are calling for a Monroe trade. That's absolutely nuts as Monroe complements Drummond so well. Drummond is Monroe's Yang as Monroe is Drummond's Yang.

Ah yes. The great Chinese concept. If there's a Yang, there must also be Yang.

Man vucevic is a monster. Dropped a 30-20 game... Tobias Harris also went for 30-19

I expect a hornet guru trade proposal of Gordon and Lopez for Harris and vucevic to come soon.

tyreke is a beast, and aminu has been incredible lately.

Salmons always has good games vs us.

You've got to be kidding me.

Evans looking real nice tonight.

Good timeout by monty. It was getting way out of control.

Man, that split and lay-in by Evans was a beauty.

Indeed. No one can overcome the Great Wall of Berlin that is Vasquez's suffocating D.

Only thing that could stop him is injury. It scares the hell out of me. Because we could have someone truly special on our hands here.

Except he almost always goes left. Really struggles with his off-hand. He also leans back or fades away on all of his jumpers. Even of the wide-open spot-up variety.

He is a layup master, though.

Vasquez, you are twice his size. Back. Thomas. Down.

over reactor to the rescue.

Wait isn't he right handed ? Or are you saying his off handed shot, not dribble.

You couldn't blow past Vasquez even if you were a time traveling hurricane.

Just never happens.
