Yeah, yeah, yeah, dj. Yer good losers.
Keep an even keel
With the Rockets at 4-2 when they reconvened Sunday for their first extended practice since they were 1-1, forward Shane Battier said it would be vital that the team not lose any of the humility that marked its solid start.
“You have to handle success and adversity with the same amount of determination,” Battier said. “The tendency is, especially when you had success early on, to take it for granted and not play as hard.
“I was telling some of the guys today we have to keep our edge of a team that is fighting for every scrap, every inch, every game. Here at practice, we can't afford to be fat cats and coast. We have to have that edge, and it's tougher to do when you win a few. You go around town, and everyone is patting you on the back, telling you how wonderful you are.”
The message seems to have gotten through.
“The guys keep saying it's a long season,” rookie Chase Budinger said. “You can't get too high at times, even when you're doing well. You have to work hard every day and just know it's a long season.”

If there was ever a player born to be a Spur, it is Shane Battier. Make it happen RC.
