    Checked NBA Reference, at least since 1985, there has never been a player who's taken 20+ attempts, making 5 or fewer shots, while scoring 29 or more points.

    Mchale is not putting him in a position to succeed... TD or Bev should have been on Kemba ALL GAME. Lin should have been off guard subbing in for Harden and when Kemba was off the court Lin could have been back in at PG slot.

    I dunno, he did some things right. He sat Lin and Patterson for Beverly and Morris when it mattered. I don't understand why he plays Aldrich though. Aldrich did have some good rebounds but he offers nothing offensively and looks outta place alot. Hopefully we move him at the deadline so DMO can get some back up 5 minutes sometimes.

    This does seem to be true. But no doubt you can improve a little bit with focus. Elite handles, on the other hand, are never gonna happen for Lin.

    Beverly kind of reminds me of Kyle Lowry. I like the energy he brings and his nose for the ball.

    A win is a win, but coach is still playing Harden and Parsons to the ground. A sad win...since it was the Bobcats. In December, it would have been a blowout.

    It used to be TD wit dat D. Times have changed, but I'm liking Magic Beverley more.

    Thank god for this win. Much needed. Great defense by the rockets at the end too. Finally I won't have a headache before sleeping tonight!

    Defending a hot player requires good team defense. Bobcats were killing us with PnRs, but our PnR defense was much to be desired. If you watch how a decent team defends Harden on pick and rolls, you'll know what I'm talking about.

    I'm far more concerned with how we play than wins or losses at this point. We're not winning a championship this year. I wanna see improvement. All I see is regression.
