i guess when you're 8ft tall, they don't call over the back when u plow over a guy and tip it out.

that should have been a foul, but ended up a bonzi poster with perk in it.

Perk should start shooting those little 15 footers when they leave him wide open like that..

Well, the "let's not use one of the Big 3" thing didn't work out so well. And even when KG & Ray came back the team didn't start clicking for a little while.

Need to do better on the defensive glass!

Why in the world did Houston start the game with the lineup they did. Almost every lineup they have had in the game since has been much better.

Thanks Brad for answering my ad,

What's the score? Can't get any live scores from work. Most of the sites with live scores are blocked by our company's firewall. :(

Was getting ugly for a few minutes, but nice finish for the half.

Is it just me or is Rondo not turning the ball over very much in the last couple of games?

It's not just you.

He hasn't had a single turnover in his last 3.5 games. Also averaged just 1.2 turnovers per game in December.

Yeah I just looked his numbers up and his turnover ratio is way down this year. He turned the ball over a lot last year it seems.
