The Rockets aren't "villains"... they are just being picked on and kicked while they are down because people dislike their arrogance. To be a...
Well they were trying to sign him a while ago but couldn't come to an agreement. Unless they were on their last resort a month ago..
Bill Worrell is going to have a hell of a time pronouncing his name.
Just an interesting stat... Kostas Papanikolaou was the Euroleague "rising star" in 2013. That is an award given to the best player under 22 years...
It's not really surprising. First off, Dwight is hated by a lot of fans. So there is that. Harden also isn't well-liked by many because of his...
Even if this was true... lots of respected star players don't hang out with the team. Tim Duncan is known for not really being social with his...
See, this is the kind of thing that deserves a new thread. Most people would never see that D-Mo said this because it will be buried in this thread.
Regardless of who was playing back-up center... my point is that it didn't really matter much who was playing in that spot. It didn't have much of...
So who was playing back-up center during the 2 months when Asik was hurt?

Okay, your statistics are wrong. Throughout the whole season, the Rockets' opponents averaged 103.1 points per game (48 min.) against them....
That's true, but like I said, a team isn't going to win the title anyway if their star player goes down with an injury.
The way I look at it is... the Rockets are not winning a championship without one of their star players, anyway. So even if they won't lose as...
Where did I say D-Mo is as good of a defender as Asik? Reading comprehension, people, geez...
I got it from the official NBA stats site....
He only played like 13 minutes per game. It's not as big of a deal as people think.
The stats don't lie. When Motiejunas was the back-up center, the team didn't miss a beat. The opponent's FG% was virtually the same and the...
