probably a big reason why he is not playing......but you can see the big man skill


I agree... he should have been playing earlier. He racked up a block faster than any other big on the team. I guess Luke wanted to play it safe? *shrugs*

He'll be good once he burns that baby fat.

We've been dealing with injuries the past month or so and are a young, unproven team. Despite that we've still done pretty damn good. There are lots of areas to improve- which is expected!

Probably doesn't make the bitter taste of losses any better for most people here, and I understand your pain. I grew up in the 90's a true Laker fan- I always cried when they lost a close game or were given an early exit in the playoffs.

At least no one got injured! *knock on wood*


Yeah, I personally consider any losses that also ends with an injury worse.


People also need to take into account just how tough this schedule has been for this team. If anything this team has won more games they should have lost than lost games they should have won.

He seems to have chunked up quickly over just a few months. American food can do that to you. But why the hell is he pulling a reverse Marc Gasol??

I hope these recent games put in perspective just how valuable DLO is.
Our starters are disorganized on both ends of the court without his leadership and there isn't a good shooter among them.

Yeah, he is kind of a little turd...but without him our starting group has no idea what they are doing and how to implement our schemes.

what? Austin is a wannabe Berkley pretender of a town....I would roll in Houston any day over Austin....unless I felt the weird desire to visit a coffee shop with fat ankle chicks and talk about the ozone.

Didn't you hear? The ozone is bouncing back after we made a concerted effort through private-public cooperation to reduce CFCs. You want to talk to girls with fat ankles about climate change - climate change is hot right now.

being as I live in hollywood the austin mention is a shout out to, umm, people I would rather be surrounded by. Give me a fat ankled austin weirdo over a 2nd amendment nut any day.

This team probably won't make the playoffs with all the injuries but they will most likely finish with a better record than what people expected of them this season.

Looking at the boxscore, it doesn't seem like any Rocket player had a big scoring game, we diffinitely made them look like a super team.. very sad.
