    QFT. Honestly, where would this team be without Chandler? He does the things that James won't do, and he spreads the floor for Dwight and James to coexist. Without him, I could foresee some issues between Dwight and James about shots, but luckily, Chandler is that middle man that gets the ball to both of them and contributes on both ends of the court. He really balances things out.

    Exactly. He's very consistent. Nobody shoots well every night. How did Parker shoot in the game against Lin? How did Holliday do tonight? Nobody lights it up every night. Andersen has bad shooting nights from 3 sometimes. Sometimes players have the touch and some nights they can't buy a basket.

    Parsons is arguably the most important player on the Rockets. Rockets are really thin at wing. They need him healthy

    He wasn't a non factor. He had assists and played defense.

    I see Jones blocking shots and pulling down boards too. It's not like Davis does it waaaay better than Jones. There is a lot of things Jones does like point guard things that Davis doesn't. I'm not saying Jones is better but I am saying Jones is not that far talent wise from Davis from what I see. Morey did great here imo.

    Just awful shooting night for Jeremy and James. Good thing they both show up in the 4th quarter when it matters most. Great defense by Jeremy all night long.

    Who have been saying PG's points are not needed for this team and we just need whoever playing that role to guard his assignment?

    JLin did it well tonight against Holiday (3 PTS on 1-9), plus two triples at crunch time.

    When he was 0-6, we need to remember what it means regressing to the mean. Lin has close to .500 FG%, .39 3P%, and the highest Points per Shot of the entire league now at 1.58, ranking 9th among all active NBA players at all positions who have taken more than 50 shots in this season.

    Again, AB saved the day. Without the frustration, Mr. 4th Qtr might have been yanked.

    Honestly surprised thats the worst game Holiday has had so far. He's been awful.

    With no Westbrook to harrass Lin... don't think so.

    Just all around...all our guys are showing so much more maturity and trust in each other. If this continues we could go deep in the playoffs this year.

    Probably good that this was the game Lin/Harden shot like crap. This just means they will probably shoot much better in tomorrow's game. Without Westbrook in the lineup, Houston should have a better chance of getting a W.
