Thanks for the grades!

Yep, a win against the Rockets is always good! :flag:

Felt like they were in control the entire night, then didn't let the hiccup bother them to seal it.

Thanks for the grades Timvp. I like their aggressiveness a lot. This is reminiscent of the Spurs bubble, defense and aggressiveness especially attacking the rim. I like that they were able to play aggressive from the get go, contrary to starting slow. If they play like this tonight, they will beat a lot of teams. I hope it continues. GSG!

In postgame comments, veteran guard John Wall — who led the Rockets with 27 points (52.6% FG) and 7 assists in 32 minutes — made it clear that he was extremely frustrated with numerous calls. When asked postgame about the late whistles in Saturday’s game that went against the Rockets, Wall responded:


I know I’ll probably get fined for it, but the refs, they’re just unbelievable. We’re a team with guys that drive to the basket a lot, and we always get excuses on why we don’t get the same calls the other guys get.


Guys drive, [and] every time we bump them or swipe down, they get every call. I feel like we have guys that drive to the basket enough between me, Vic [Oladipo], EG [Eric Gordon], that drive and don’t get those same calls. It’s kind of frustrating, but because we’re missing easy shots that we normally get, and some guys are getting calls that they probably shouldn’t get.

Uhh cry me a river Wall. Rockets are 16th in drives per game and 11th in FTA. Spurs are 2nd in drives and 16th in FTA.

Thanks OP

Hopefully White keeps that spot even when Lonnie is healthy

DDR was a monster again. But he'll have a dud game soon and people here will want to waive him.

Surprised Keldon is still launching his shots into outer space. It’s effecting his free throw shooting now. Don’t we have a coach for this?
