    Please do away with the twin towers, **** doesn't work. Every game we play from behind and get off to slow starts, digging ourself a hole because that line up does not work.

    Yelling??? Cut the dramatics.
    They were talking, presumably about what just happened.

    Honestly, I think you are just trolling to bait LOFs. GTFO.

    Sooo many missed opportunities this game... but I have no idea why Beverley ran towards Gasol after Lin got screened out on that play. :S At that point you'd rather give up a 2 and let the game go to overtime so you can steamroll them with your youth and energy than give up a 3 and lose the game. :X Ugh, so frustrating. If anything, I think McHale is the one who is to blame for not managing substitutions correctly.

    Someone might take it, but we're getting nothing back. Other team's going to win the trade all day every day.

    Response

    Rockets really need to move Lin out of Houston, so that the remaining players have no one to blame when they lose and they have no scapegoat. Anyway, Rockets seem to me to be a bunch of pretenders. I have to say Lin and Bev, these two guys give all they got each and every game, even if they make mistakes here and there.

    Either way, even if you defend the play well, Blake might still make the shot. You gave your opponent the chance to win it.

    Points to take from this game:
    1. Harden isn't good at defense because he's lazy. He's fully capable if he wants to.
    2. Howard is horrible free throw shooter once he loses concentration. He missed 2 in a row after that running away stunt following a big smiling face
    3. Parson doesn't realize Howard can't shoot free throws or McHale didn't remind him.
    4. McHale doesn't know how to draw up plays, which we knew from before.
    5. Beverley isn't afraid to take shots when he keeps on missing.
    6. TT doesn't work, and McHale should change it from next game.
    7. Lin is too passive, he should demand more shots when he's playing well. Yell at whoever telling him to defer
    8. The whole team needs 2x free throw practices
