    Lin is still working out his rhythm.

    Not worried... we're up, they really aren't stopping Harden/Lin, and if Ppat/Delfino made a decent percentage of 3's, we'd be up 15 or 20.

    Both Lin/Harden turn it up in the 4th, so long as the bench doesn't blow it we *should* win this.

    No I didn't and that is why I preferred Dragic. (and Lowry but I can't say Lowry since we got Harden).

    2nd half with the eye on tomorrow:
    - Give Asik some rest, give Aldrich and Jones playing time.
    - Play Morris & Jones together, give Parsons some rest because he's not playing well and we need him somewhat fresh to bounce back tomorrow.
    - a lot more body movement and passing so no more Douglas
    - Give White some burn at PG!

    Lins shot will be fine... you can tell his getting into shape

    main thing is we are winning... Lin playing within himself

    i completely agree. i know lin is a streaky 3-point shooter, but far from a sharp shooter. i don't remember ppat shooting 3's in the past, when did he start?

    I think Lin's practicing his 3 - gotta try it out sometime. But damn it's cold.

    The 3pt bricks is contagious on both sides. Hopefully 2nd half we see some magic.

    No kidding. It's like the Rockets are down by 25 or something. They are up by 9 for god's sake.

    Lin still with the iffy shot, sometimes it looks it looks like it's coming back and then something I think Im watching Toney Douglas. He still gotta shoot when he's open, it's the only way to bring it back.
    Chandler's shot is also doodoo, are those two partying too much :confused:

    We're still doing good though, hopefully McHale gets them pumped for the next half :p

    Lin was doing everything else except his jumpers are not going in. He's rebounding and drawing fouls. He got only 2 assists but could have been more if his teammates made their shots. Hopefully he'll get his jumper going but he doesn't not warrant a "trash" comment.
