Maybe it's because NOLA is a shithole.

They said on the broadcast last night that there were no rooms available so that's why they are staying in Baton Rouge.

The Rockets will hold shootaround in Baton Rouge and then bus to New Orleans on the day of the game. The 82 mile trip will take approximately one hour and 40 minutes


Better leave BR around 10am.

Yea but don't let that distract you from Timmy bontenps recent MVP straw poll that James running away with it.

Here's the complete results from my polling of 106 media members (not all MVP voters) for my column. As you can see, a clear edge for Harden

Good man Les. One of the best owners in basketball. His wife is like 40 years his junior, but he is a really damn good owner.

There is no way this woman is 40 years younger than him. He's like 73... that would make her 33. No way.
