Somebody tell me they saw what just happened at halftime in the TNT studios.  ;D ;D
sorry didn't catch that, what did happen? ;D

Not sure why, but Shaq and Kenny started racing back behind the desk (maybe towards the big monitor?) and Kenny shoved Shaq and off balance he flew into the Christmas tree and demolished it.

Haha, EJ is the only good teammate for going to help him up.

TNT execs must have a heart attack every time those guys stand up to do something.

Shaq made a nice bowling ball though. That was pretty hilarious.

You mean you don't think TNT completely planned and rehearsed that (along with everything else they do)?

Rondo looks phenomenal tonight, hes been aggressively driving to the basket and playing within himself. Happy to see him succeeding on a championship team, I hope they win it this year since we have no shot.

Excited for this Houston vs San Antonio game.

See how this new-look Rockets team does against the Spurs. The defensive talent in the Rockets starting lineup is incredible. Dwight Howard, Josh Smith, Trevor Ariza, Patrick Beverley. Still worried about their creation offensively outside of Harden/Dwight but their defensive talent is incredible.

I think the Spurs will struggle.  They're still without Parker and Leonard aren't they?

Josh Smith yelling out to his teammates telling them to get organized and get back in transition defense. I think his experience and defensive leadership could be very important for this somewhat immature Rockets team. Smith looks like he is zoned-in tonight & really enjoying being part of a good team again.

Poor Corey Joseph goes baseline and has Dwight Howard near side of the rim and Josh Smith on opposite side. Completely intimidated. Refuses to even try and and shoot.

Josh Smith is covering a huge amount of ground as a team defender. Really dropping off of Tiago Splitter who doesn't shoot outside of 7-8 feet. Smith's defensive quickness is terrific alongside the interior power of Dwight Howard. Spurs change up lineup and get Diaw in there to try and deal with Josh Smith's disruptive defense.

Yeah. Bummed out there is no Tony Parker. I thought he was going to play today.

I love Joey Dorsey. I wish Ainge would have brought him here to Boston to play as a PF next to Garnett after KG moved to C. Dorsey's physicality, defense & rebounding would've been terrific at PF alongside KG anchoring the defense and spacing out the floor on offense.

Corey Brewer was a really good addition to Rockets bench. Another quick footed long armed defensive orientated player.

Rockets scary defensive talent.

Baynes has 4 fouls in 5 minutes. Early 2nd quarter. Popovich leaves him in the game.

I hate coaches who sit bench players because they are in foul trouble. Pointless. 95% of the time it hurts you more than it helps you. Leave the guy in.

Mills is back! Will be pretty rusty I imagine but great to see him recovered.  :)

Mavs D looks terrible.  They really miss Chandler.  OKC shooting 55% for the game so far

Houston vs. San Antonio was a good game.

And this is the best defense I've seen Rondo play all season. He's chasing Westbrook everywhere. He started slow, but this 4th quarter looked like classic Rondo defense.
