Words don’t do justice how disgusted I was with my Rockets last night. I turned the game off in the first quarter when it hit double digits and checked on my phone a little later hoping it would be better and GS was up 25 around halftime. I love my Rockets, but I’ve never been a bug fan of Harden or Howard. This is the third game this postseason where they quit after getting behind early. That’s a big sign they just don’t have any heart and I don’t see the Rockets ever winning a title with those two as the cornerstones of the franchise.

It looks like the new game is to lock up Nike players earlier and earlier, and target adidas players for turning them to Nike earlier and earlier.
That LSU stack inside the SEC maybe makes a the point that Cal has to do better with the stacks he’s been getting.
Hypothesis: you want to keep getting stacks, when you can’t win rings with them, well, then you’re going to have to go out and turn some adidas players.
@brooksmd I remember watching Reggie, Vida Blue, & Catfish Hunter all play at old Municipal when the A’s were still here in KC before the butthead Charley Finley took his jackass mascot “Charley O” & sideshow to Oakland. Watched ROY Lou Pinella play for the Royals in old Municipal before he was traded to the Bombers in 1970,
@RockChalkinTexas Hey thats cool. I met Tyrel briefly after my shift one day at KU Hospital. He was coming in to go to his clinicals for Physical Therapy. Very nice guy. We talked briefly about college ball and his short time spent playing ball over in I cant remember which country. It was cool to meet him, Im glad he is all graduated now.

Look at all the good 3 point shooters in the NBA and with few exceptions they can all do the same thing; this is why they are so difficult to defend. Have a player guard Greene closely and he is ineffective.
Sorry I missed you guys. They don’t broadcast Rangers’ games on radio here in Austin - it’s the Astros - and I don’t have cable to watch either. Not a fan of Rangers. Do go and watch the Triple A team they have here - Round Rock Express - that was started by Nolan Ryan and his 2 boys. Sorry they beat the Royals!
@RockChalkinTexas jb used to spar with more than one rat at the other site, but none of the exchanges were as funny as those with Ross. Hell, we all get narcissistic at times, but few I’ve ever encountered have the clever & charismatic ability to make it so witty & hilarious as ole jb. Yeah he gets windy at times, but reading him spar with Ross was like recanting a paragraph from a Shakespearean play & then a nut & bolt reference from a old Popular Mechanics magazine. And more often than not, jb displayed great reserve in the punishment he dished out. It was almost like jb was dueling with an unarmed man at times. Plus I’m here to say those exchanges were some of the absolute funniest posts I can ever recall digesting over there. Alas those days are passed & Joe stays away.-- thank Heavens. I’m quite happy the new & improved jb belongs here with our rats & Mr Joe has now secured his safe haven. Long live the King of kubuckets !!
I see ya’ll were talking about me. I did my part this weekend and went to Alex Box Friday and Saturday night and watched LSU take down misery. I actually spoke to some misery folks, and since they were undoubtedly parents of a player I was nice to them than I normally would have been.
