    Starting to get a little antsy for this game. Hope we pull this one off since it'll get so much coverage nationally. Not to mention we need a little confidence for road games, haven't won one since the second game of the season!

    Coaching Staff- Just let Lin have his game and be the man tonight.

    Lin and TD should split the minutes tonight, each play 24 minutes, maybe let Lin close the game out?

    I agree. But I would love for the Rockets to play the way they played in Houston. I don't see Chandler going ham like he did in the first game though.

    I'm watching espn and they said the coaching staff isn't using Lin right and he's not being aggressive

    Damn this game is on NBA.TV, which means it will be blacked out on both NBA.TV and NBA.LP.

    I expect the another 2 picks on Calderon in an entire half type performance from the coaching staff this game and 35 picks set against Lin for Felton as every NYK player take his crack at the pinata. Hopefully the rest of the Rockets can step up and beat the living crud out of the NYK while we use Lin as a decoy on both ends of the floor.

    :eek: I AM SO SURPRISED... :confused:

    Seriously though - not surprised at all that ESPN is behind on what members here saw/pointed out/dissected in great detail about 20 games ago. Thanks for pointing out the obvious, ESPN.

    Doubt Lin has a big game. 7/6/4 2 TOs 3-8 shooting, depending on how often he has the ball. So, on the bright side, the rockets might get heavy run on ESPN. Harden is going to have a very good game tonight though, I'm calling that. 30+, efficiently.

    I have not been to MSG for a basketball game since the first Mark Jackson era....I will be there tonight. I hope that Jeremy and TD both have stellar games and that someway, somehow, we pull out a win....But Knicks are undefeated at MSG. This one will be tough.

    Agreed, the Knicks will come out strong. MSG crowd is exceptional.

    doubt it. once he starts going off, it'll be constant double. and lin will get doubled all night just to stick it to him... melo goes 45+ and breaks the record for most 3s in a game ;)
