    It's Dwight and Beverley, not Sampson

    No defense played by either team, but I'll take it. Hope T. Jones is good.

    Talking about a basketball game in front of your computer. Very tough.

    So Dwight and Beverley is going to make up for all of the transition buckets they gave up? This is a team game. Defense shouldn't be dependant on two people. McHale needs to make defense a priority b/c I don't see it right now.

    People want to make fun of the Lakers giving up 145 points but the Rockets give up 130.

    I love how you Lin fans are in a little pack. It is so cute. Last I checked we are on a Rockets team site in which we discuss basketball. Way to make yourself look like a complete dumb**** though.

    A few questions?

    How good is James Harden? Really. All world? Hall of Fame? Better?

    Is T. Jones better than we think? Yes. His defense is suspect but offensively, he is for real.

    Is Cannon the real deal? Career back up? Future starter?

    How good can the Rockets be when they play defense?

    Did Lin finally find his stroke tonight just in time for the playoffs?

    Not at all. Thought it was funny you had to make snide response after I told you to take action on something you posted. Good try though.

    LOL dude calm down. If you didn't realize, I was also insulting myself since I'm also talking about basketball in front of my computer screen. I'm just saying don't act like discussing a basketball game makes you tough as if "big boys" can only do it lol.

    Btw what I said has nothing to do with Lin

    Is it possible for us to clinch the 4th seed today at Denver? Sorry if this has already been asked.

    No, Portland can still run the table and finish with 54 wins.

    I believe so. If we win this evening, we have locked up the 4th seed. Then we can cut some minutes from our starters.

    Well, he can shoot for sure. His ast/TO rate is horrendous and far worse than Harden/Lin (this is now and in college)- he could be a good backup spark plug guy, like a less athletic Nate Robinson. Unless he improves on his pure PG skills he won't be a starter (except maybe in HOU next to Harden)

    TJones is a beast. It's uncanny how well he can score around the rim - midrange is pretty darn good too.
