Wolves folding in the fourth quarter again.

I love watching this frontcourt of Beasley and Love go to work. Darko has his moments but what the Wolves get out of these two is outstanding. What the Wolves need next season to win 30+ games is a developed Wesley Johnson (right now he's a jack of all trades, master of none), Ricky Rubio, a second shot creator (Beasley the only good one), and maybe a backup center.

Beasley and Love bringing it like always. Darko was great too in the few minutes he played so far too.

I remember a couple nights after the draft I said that Jermaine Taylor would be the best of the 3 draft picks we made. Draft night I told myself if Morey could steal Chase Budinger with no draft picks at all then I would consider that a very successful draft, but of course Morey also came out with Taylor and Sergio Llull. After reading up on Taylor some more and watching some summer league and preseason games, I just felt that he had so more potential and talent than Bud. It wasn't just something I said out of the blue, I actually stuck with my 'prediction' ever since. Anyways glad to see Rick Adelman finally giving Taylor a chance, he gave him one late last season when Ariza was injured and he performed very well (including a 16 point game performance against the Lakers and Kobe praised his defense). I hope he does the same for us again.

Texas is such a mess but Davis was garbage. Good riddance.

Expected.

While this might be a short-term move with Brooks' return on the horizon, I love it. Lee has proven to be our best perimeter defender (amongst our guards) and played some of his best defense this season against opposing point guards. Taylor should be getting playing time with most NBA teams, its nice to see him finally crack the rotation. Jermaine can be an instant offense kind of player off the bench and his defense is pretty underrated. Sad to see Ish back on the bench but his production hasn't been very good recently.

I only read from his MVP season to departure but wow amazing job. Iverson will always be one of my favorite players and I'm so thankful to him for bringing excitement to a rather dull era (late 90's to early-mid 00's). I was pretty young back (middle school-ish) then but I will never forget being glued to the tv whenever the Sixers played on those ABC Sunday games.

Title says it all, I've been wanting to watch some old episodes from around the time The Rock made his debut and move on from there. Anyone know a good site for this?

Those were the days...thank god they're over. http://web.archive.org/web/20080502151709/www.otrbasketball.com/forums/index.php?showuser=1021 I cringed at every one of these posts. Good thing I wasn't all that active back then but a 4 year vet nonetheless. :glasses: Gotta give credit to Real Deal for being so patient with me when I was 15 or 16 years old.

There are 12 teams in the West that can contend for the playoffs and right now Houston is the worst of them. We played great in our last 3 out of 4 games but I'm not ready to jump on the bandwagon till we show some consistency. Besides I never said that our season is over, only that this is a make or break month for us.

Well someone has to be realistic around here.

Wtf that is awesome, will do it tonight. Thanks.

Yep, he was extremely pissed off. We have it for 360 but I don't think I have a month free card.

I tried to play my first game last night but my little brother started crying about ruining his rank so he grabbed the game and went to sleep in the living with it by his side. Sometimes I don't even know how we're related. -_-

Doubt it. Most likely scenario is that Brooks is traded with picks for an all-star or at least borderline like Andre Iguodala.

Kevin Martin, Jordan Hill, Patrick Patterson top my list of players I think we should keep (they can go for the right place though). Whether Aaron Brooks gets traded this season comes down to how the team plays as a whole with him manning the point. The same goes for the rest of the Rockets players, this next month will determine their future as Houston Rockets. So far we're off to a good start but things could easily go south.

Best advice I can give is watch over ebay like a hawk. I bought my ps3 for just a $100 on ebay.

Nothing big. I'm not sure if its a coincidence that Yao's target date is also Tracy McGrady's return to Houston, but Yao does want to get back on the court as early as possible. Rick is simply being cautious with him and doesn't want to give the media a timeline yet.

If the Rockets ever start sending signals that they feel Brooks is better suited for the bench, you can bet that they will be shipping him out of here sometime in the coming months.
