Houston Rockets: Chance At A Title?

Were the offseason moves worth it?

Over the offseason the Houston Rockets acquired Ryan Anderson (4 years, $80 Million), Eric Gordon (4 years, $53 Million), Tyler Ennis (3 years, $4.9 Million). With these acquisitions the Rockets seem to have more potential, even without Dwight Howard. I think if the Rockets get their chemistry down they could be title contenders. They beat the San Antonio Spurs and stayed right with the Cleveland Cavilers and Oklahoma Thunder. Adding Ryan Anderson who averages (13 PPG, 6.5 RPG, and .6 APG) I don't think he was worth the money. But there's still time to come and chemistry to be worked on. Eric Gordon who averages (16.3 PPG, 2.2 APG, and 3 RPG) was a good person to add, if he can stay healthy. He knows how to put the ball in the hoop. Tyler Ennis who averages (3.3 PPG, 1.6 APG, and 1 RPG) wasn't a good move.

Point God


James Harden, who else would be talking about. He has been insane so far, only struggling in one game against the OKC Thunder and keeping the team still in the game. James Harden Is averaging a crazy (28.7 PPG, 12.6 APG, and 7.8 RPG). He's leading the league in assists! And he won Western Conference Player of the Week. He's second in the race to MVP. Mike D'Antoni has Harden dishing the ball all the time. Mike has done a fantastic job with this team. And with Harden leading the way I think we could be a title contender if we can get better chemistry. We could be unstoppable under D'Antoni's offense.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
