Re: 2013 NBA Playoffs
Btw, Lakers will not win the 2013 NBA championship. I just now figured this out. Neither will the Rockets. I'm scared to look up the most lopsided series in playoff history because I won't be surprised if the Rockets beat it. Well, shit. Had a great chance to steal one last night. McHale's adjustme...

The Rockets will not finish within 10 points in any game against the Thunder. They've run out of gas. Not a bad result for the youngest team in the league. Bring on Josh Smith.

Finished that Traffic book that had been mentioned here a few times. Pretty interesting and eye-opening.
About halfway through The Passage. I hear the second book is awful, but I'm really enjoying this one. I did not read the flap so went into it nearly blind.

Rockets won thanks to a goaltending call at the buzzer on Jermaine O'Neal. First playoff berth since 2009. Not bad for the youngest team in the league.
