    Star on the team can't wait to get to the Heat locker room to give LeBron props. Disappointing.

    I don't understand this move either. Why is our SG handling the ball so much? Lin is no Novak. He can't shoot spot-up three's.

    Fun game.

    Parsons, Asik, Patterson, and Morris all did great tonight. In the end I thought Harden and Lin didn't really do everything we need them to do to win.

    Harden got to the free throw line a lot but didn't shoot great overall, and Lin did OK with only two turnovers, but these guys are our star players who need to make big plays at the end of the game.

    Overall I'm happy that the team made some progress tonight, but we still only made 12 of 34 3pt shots, while the Heat made 10 of 21 3pt shots. So, if we ever have a night when we are shooting a really good percentage we should have a much easier time.

    But, it was a fun game and had me cheering.

    You don't know jack **** about basketball, both delfino and parsons were not open, you want them to take a three with a hand in the face?

    Even though we lost....I honestly can say that was the most fun I've had watching a Rockets game in quite some time. That game had me going crazy

    This is partially because the teams have been clogging the lanes, Jeremy is always driving into a mass of players, he needs more than one pick to get free, yet the team usually just sets one high pick, and then 3 point shot if there's nothing lol.

    Rockets like to parade our 3 points shooters, but the only one who gets respect is Delfino, maybe this game will change that and Mook/Parsons will start to get that respect.

    Hahahahaha, my mistake. I meant to write "spot up." But it would be awesome if somebody can pull a post up 3, though :grin: .

    Nope, a game is more than just that. Harden Isoball created 6 points before that. Lin played well before that airball.

    Lebron is more than 'good' he had a amazing game going psycho on the Rockets and Bosh played huge as well.

    Youngest team in the NBA almost came out of there with a win, they are bound to make mistakes like tonight.

    If your in this season to watch for wins and losses, youre going to pull your hair out. Were gonna be frustrating and inconsistent but the point is to develop.Thats definitely what i saw tonight.

    Sampson gets an F cause we lost because of a single rebound. JVG wouldnt had never let that happen. He would had called a timeout to switch players in and out.

    Harden... U cant shoot a contested jump shot... At least drive in for the foul.

    Lin was so wide open i think it shocked him... Idk...

    Some crazy star bs calls...

    Lebron just went off when he was needed...

    In all it was still fun game to watch... I See potential. if only we can get more out of harden and lin...

    Maybe Lin needs to put on some weight and go back to his former weight. Affecting his balance at the rim...

    If the coaches are trying to get Harden and Lin to work on their weaknesses, it won't work this way -- will just kill their confidence.

    Loved his coaching until he brought Lin and Harden back in too early and went ISO. It's a gut wrenching loss but still loved what I saw from this team for most of the game. Hope they can take the positives and progress from there.

    And please stop with the freaking ISOs!

    This team is way too young and inexperience to play a half court offense. Why not Run-n-Gun. I wish we would do a better job making adjustments. SMH
