Rockets: L.A Gasols @ Rockets 11-7-13

[Venti Quattro]

Dwight has now missed half of his FT's 32-64

[TIMMYtoZO]

@ both of these teams. The Lakers should be tanking instead of trying to win games. This is nothing to be proud of considering this is a deep draft.

As for Houston, Howard's free throws are an issue, but it still won't stop Houston from winning the West this season and falling to Miami in the Finals. That is how weak it is, tbh.

Rockets lost despite shooting 37 more free throws than the Lakers. According to bball reference, a team hasn't lost shooting +35 fta since 1994

Most of those were intentional and the others were due to being in the bonus from the hack-a-dwght.


Rockets will make it to at least the WCF after they pull the trade for Asik.

You can say that about 10 of Dwight's were intentional. So, understandable. Still leaves it at 42-15. But Harden man... these weak fouls. Not even LeBron or Wade get that treatment nowadays.

Harden, like Durant and Westbrook, plays to draw fouls as the first priority, even ahead of just scoring, obviously..

I know. And that's just a joke. He should rather concentrate on working on his FG%. Brick, brick, brick... stripe, stripe, stripe... that's it. Yeah, before this game it was actually + 50%, but now it dipped down to 48. Much closer to his career average of 44.

I dont get the Los Angeles losers and LA Fakers BS. If you're going to make fun of a franchise at least have a legit punch line. When a franchise has won so many chips and 10 finals appearances from 2000-2010 its hilarious to refer them to as Losers. The Fredo or Kobe is overrated thing is more of a low blow than something corny like 'loser' franchise.

Lin's man scores on a wide open jumper. Shocking. Why is Lin even in the game? Garcia should be out there instead of Lin. Way more length.

that was bible kemp's switch son.

I think watching Harden Iso Ball is starting to make me hate watching this ugly basketball. 6-16 last game against the Clippers. 9-24 against the Lakers. His game is predicated on getting to the foul line. No defense ugly ass basketball. Then you throw Beverly in there 1-10 shooting and getting lost on switching to Blake. Dwight Howard tries to throw Lin under the bus when he goes on to shoot 5-16 from the line. Man up Howard you big baby.
