OMG DAMIAN LILLARD IS A SUPERSTAR NOW!!!

fricking media always overreacting.

On a serious note.. This may be the first time in NBA history that there are 6 first round series that start 1-1 if the Rockets win.

shite's about to get REAL

Nice shot by Bev to tie it. It's unfortunate that we don't have a lead, but I'm still pleased with the first half.

Truly great players play both sides


Lopez is a better post defender. The fouls have got to him this game. I'm not saying Aldridge can't defend Dwight, he's quicker on his feet than Lopez too. However, Lopez is better at shot altering and forcing the shooter to adjust to him.

Unanimous ROY. 20 ppg this season.

Aren't you doing the same thing? Media "overreacts" to his FIRST playoff road game which he put away the Rockets in. Then in one half, you make that statement.

I had to look it up for myself. He's been nonexistent.

If not for that ultra-valuable swipe-at-the-ball-after-your-man-blows-by-you defense he plays, he'd probably be better on the bench.

Chuck saying it's because they're throwing it to Dwight non stop.

Chuck's right that Houston can't win longterm this way because Dwight not gonna do this every night.

To be clear, i'm not saying Aldridge should be guarding Dwight for 48 minutes. But when Howard's on a run and Lopez is getting roasted, a superstar big like Aldridge has the cache to switch that matchup and take Lopez' man.

Your center gets higher percentage shots. Let Dwight get the double teams and he can dish out to the perimeter. But their outside shooting is not doing so hot.

Without Dwight's performance, Houston is down big in this game.

I took it as the rest of the team can't get anything going when Howard is going off like this. I don't know if it's accurate or not though.

Chuck was saying that going through Dwight changes the offense, that he can't be a first option long term. Although it's different, it doesn't mean it's not better.

A dominant center can only help your offense.
