    Look at Canaan. Looks at his face. He already knew it was going in. He's played so many games with Troy. He knew Troy was gonna win the game. So much confidence. Damn.

    yeah, his tongue is out to the left side of his mouth

    could this be a form of his brain working on muscle memory as in if we look left we're trying to remember something and if we look right our brain is trying to create?

    Have to say it was a bad play by Lin, Howard was wide open under the basket and only Lillard near him. The chances of a game-winning three from a new guy going in vs. a Howard layup/dunk in the paint is too low. Lucky Troy made it or there would've been a sh**storm.

    Troy's interview on Sportscenter: "I had a feeling I was going to hit a big shot"

    Very composed and even-keeled even in his interview. Matter of fact, very professional. "I'm just out here doing my job"

    Lillard would've fouled Howard leading to missed fts. Enjoy the victory. Luck would not have put the Rockets in this position. McFail did.

    So, fall asleep with 3 mins left in regulation, just woke up, first thing i do is turn on nba gametime. First thing i see when i turn on my tv is the highlight of the last play

    ...when i saw that shot go in

    ****ing sweet shot by Daniels, Morey, give this man a damn contract extension when the season is over. Daniels needs to be given a full 4 year rookie contract deal, he's only partically guarunteed next season then a FA i think, unexceptable!

    Quite obviously a season saver. These are they types of plays by role players that you have to have to win in the playoffs. Let's give J Lin a lot of credit there for making two huge plays in that sequence, the steal and the pass to hit Daniels. Big, Big, Big. TD, welcome to the Big show!!

    Daniels seriously reminds me of Maxwell when he talks: rambling a bit, constantly saying "so" at the end of his sentences, not really into interviews / talking. Funny how similar they are.

    It was a really good pass--so it wasn't the best possible pass Lin could have made, so what? A good play is still a good play even if there's a better one on the table.

    There are some advantages to setting up a wide open high % 3P shooter there anyway--means Blazers can't beat you on the next possession. Remember, there were 10s left on the clock.

    Wow Daniels was actually jumping up and down calling for it.
    He's got big balls for a rookie!!

    Missing Greg Smith's support on the bench after watching that Pacers/Houston video. Nice guy.
