re: Houston Rockets vs. LA Clippers | Game 6 | 9:30 (CT) on ESPN | LAC 3-2

Pels just couldn't afford to wait for Rivers growth and progression, and not sure he would be as good with them as with his dad and a better Clip roster..

But, damn he has some nice glove and foot speed skills for a team that can afford a specialist off the bench..

And Hell, his overall game is rounding out..coming of age.

Cryogenically freezing an entire organization isn't a reasonable expectation.

THIS IS AUSTIN'S WORLD, WE'RE ALL JUST LIVING IN IT

Keep telling your self that!

It may have been that way in the past, or reg season stats, but thus far, LAC played hard vs SA Champs. And if not for 64 FTs in Gm-2 & Paul being out first two games..would lead 2-0 with sweep through H-Town.

Like Barkley said, Houston has played hard for only 2 of the 8 qtrs thus far..thankfully they were the last two of Gm-2.

Josh Smith is the most unaware defender on the court at all times.

I don't think he gives half a frick about defense.

HOU missing open 3s. Clips making them has been the difference. HOU killing them on points in the paint.

Brewer just made a hell of a play then passed it to Josh Smith for a three. A beautiful example of life's highs and lows.

"The Corey Brewer Experience"

Nah too early in the game.

Love Houston's depth and size, but hate their Harden dribbling down the clock, then Euro-step to rack, then crash glass,etc..one dimensional Offense.

Sorta ragtag this series, think Ariza, Smith, Brewer,etc..are better than this execution. Howard has been great thus far..looks healthy again and showing more toughness than formerly.
