Superman is back. Kobe was clearly kryptonite and this is proof.

Rockets fans are going to be going through a lot of Kleenex this year.

Only to hand them to Lakernation. We try to be courteous.

Watched this one too. Dwight really needs to clean up the post game. He's made no improvements at all. He kept trying to go baseline and stepped out of bounds like at least twice. He made some improvements when he started to hook it over his shoulder though. He's not backing his man down as easily as he used to be able to. You can tell that is bothering him

I meant because Rockets fans are going to be *********ing over Dwight's highlights. They're gonna have a great season.

He averaged 17 ppg last season and is a career 18 ppg player. I wonder if he'll ever become offensively elite. Elite rebounder and defender, none the less.

[oh the horror]

Or, and here's a wild notion...he was recovering from a back surgery and a shoulder injury?
