Sure , three forwards remain from last year,

Chandler Parson - second year, started some last year, likely start at small fwd
Patrick Patterson - third year, likely start at power forward, behind Scola last year
Marcus Morris - second year,, developmental last year

Rockets got a nice road win 105-96 over Detroit tonight.

Harden had 37 points, fantastic start after signing his 5 year/ 80 mil deal.

So far, that was an exciting games with lots of runs by both teams.

Rockets are 2-2 playing at Grizzlies tonight.

Harden still leads league in scoring after games of 37, 45, 24, and 15 points.

Asik is third in league with 14 rebounds per game.

And wow, Lakers just fired their head coach after startiing 1-5.

Can't be players fault.

Anybody get to watch the Rockets, I don't have them on suddenlink yet.

Anyways, Rockets have like a 5 game win streak, I think 16-12, perhaps 6th place in West right now.

Youngest NBA team.

Currently highest scoring offense NBA team.

11-2 against East, 5-10 against West.

O(Omar Asik) seems to be doing fairly well, per expectations.

Hardin 4th leading scorer in the league averaging 26 pts per game.

well, rockets made a trade, I happen to like it ok, maybe a good deal with potential of 5th overall pick this year Thomas Robinson.

Houston Rockets get Thomas Robinson, Francisco Garcia, Tyler Honeycutt and a second round pick from Sacramento.

And got a another second round draft pick for Marcus Morris.

Team beat Thunder 123-119 without the four guys leaving and none of new guys here so that seems ok.

Then they should have plenty cap space if they want to lure in another top tier player free agent during summer.

Probably everyone knows, but nice for the Rockets to be back in playoffs .

Might even see them on TV.

They are a likeable exciting young team. McHale deserves lots of credit as a coach as well.

They are a very fun team to watch when they are on. I expect they'll lose first round, but they shouldn't get swept. They are really a lot better than I expected this soon. Next year, the Rockets should be fighting for the homefield first round of the playoffs if they don't completely miss in FA.
