Except those that understand either A.) defense (especially PnR) or B.) advanced analytics

The Rockets defense is pedestrian and the “advanced analytics” I see says he is shooting 44% from the field as a 7 footer. I still say the overpaid. Good rebounding numbers, but they could have gotten a rebounder for less.

And Omer Asik, who everyone (me included) thought the Rockets overpaid for last summer

Terrence Ross almost jumped from the free throw line on that last one. Nice.

The lottery-bound Mavericks fell to 7-8 when Jae Crowder missed a three at the horn.

Off of a missed FT…it almost worked too.

Vince Carter took over late to get them back in it (it was about a 2 minute burst, but still had to be seen to be believed).

Zach Lowe certainly didn’t…called it him the best under-the-radar signing of the offseason.

So whats the story with the holdout kid over there in Houston?

His Twitter feed is an amazing live-look-in of a personal meltdown.

If the Laker starters are going to look old this early, they are in serious trouble. Because that bench? Woof.

why bring facts into it? Let’s not crush the bold proclamations of the ESPN pundits. I don’t think anyone really looked at the roster when making preseason predictions

No words about Kobe getting the double-double with 40 points and 10 turnovers? Solid work there.

I hope he getting the proper help and treatment but he needs to take responsibility and not put the entire onus on his employer

I’m tired of the Royce White story. I deal with anxiety issues. I don’t demand my employer and other people accommodate my every need due to my mental health. He needs to take responsibility and stop blaming the Rockets.

Nash and Dwight look like Gary Payton and Karl Malone part II right now.
