T-Rob talked so much ish to Howard

[PDXFonz]

During most of the series but especially game 6. I've watched game 6 plenty of times and decided to watch it again while waiting for the USA vs Brazil game.

Basically any time Howard got rejected while trob was on the floor, trob let him know about it. Love the attitude he brings, his attitude and work ethic at his most valuable assets to this team. He will always be that player who gives the team energy.

Lopez was usually the one actually getting the blocks, but that didn't stop T-Rob from telling Howard to get his weak shit out of there.

When Robinson was a Rocketeer, I bet his best friend was fellow tough guy Patrick Beverley.

Would they kick you out if you sat courtside dressed in a rockets away uniform and stood up and cheered during play... You know pumping your arms in the air while the team plays good defense.

Yes.

Wait...I thought that pumping your arms in the air IS good defense.

Decided to check exact minutes because it seemed like Lin, Asik, and Parsons were always on the floor.

In the playoffs Lin played 29.5 minutes per game, Asik played 19.2, and Parsons played 37.6... Houston is screwed.

Houston undervalued parsons as much as they did T-Rob.

Yup. Lin was huge for them at times, and Asik played very respectable defense against LA. Parsons is a huge loss, but they did get Ariza. They didn't get anyone to replace Lin or Asik.

And Ariza is nice but I expect to see some big things out of parsons in Dallas. Rockets might miss playoffs or fall to 8, but I think the mavs take their place in the top tier out west.

I'm still happy that Houston really messed up. Going to be interesting seeing harden and howard get after each other.

I was surprised by Lin. Now that he's a Laker, the NBA yakyak machine will make sure we know how good he is.
