    And what player is? He's consistent in effort and standard variations of a basketball player.

    I love T-Jones but I would probably trade the entire Rockets team for a chance at Davis.... he is that good. He is 20 years old and probably already the best PF in the league.

    Davis averages a supreme 3.2 BPG, Jones is quite good at 1.2 BPG this season. I love jones. Lin has been a catalyst for the Growth of Jones after that terrible swoon, when Bev was starting. Jones looks like he's gonna be a very valuable piece for the ROckets no doubt.

    Yeah he did sometimes. You know how rockets defense is, constant switching and we end up getting a mismatch.

    Lin irritated Parker, and I guess Conley did not have a good game either?

    Lin just missed 5 to 6 makeable shots, just like Harden did. I rather Lin keep shooting when he's open.

    I agree. I cant never understand the playing time management.
    I reckon DMo/Brewer could have played 10-12 mins to take the stress out
    of some of the other guys.

    It's a *long* season and no point burning out 1/3 of the season through.

    Yes, especially liked TJones' drive to the basket in the 4Q. Showed how far he has come in his confidence.

    Same thing with JLin, and these 4Q outbursts. In the past, he would be demoralized by 3Q of bad shooting, but we are seeing him dig deep now.

    Yes, we had a bad shooting night all over (until the 4th)...

    BTW - Casspi actually had a very decent game on both ends of the court.
    He only played 12 minutes but finished with 7 & 4 (plus a steal and a block).
    Had to go double-digits, but those missed FTs... 0 from 3?? Could he be intimidated by our own crowd?

    I really loved the clutch work from the whole team
    (Though I'm not fond of ISO).

    DH was close to a triple-double with those 8 TOs...:)
    (But he's keeping up the great form)

    Jones looks great with 3 creators on the field and an elite defender backing him up. On the other hand you got Davis getting no plays being run for him and getting points off his own ability. There is a wide gap in talent between the two.

    Wtf quarter to quarter consistent? Every player goes through stretches of games where they play great or bad. So how do you expect anyone to be consistent throughout the game of every game?

    Jackson is a bigger point guard then Beverley. Bev got problems defending bigger guards but he does well against the smaller quicker ones.

    well we expect Lin to be Lebron james or Michael Jordan.. of course it's not too much to ask right?

    Would be ironic if Anderson came over but the other two got shipped off.

    Exactly. No one is consistent through all quarters....if there ever was you'd be seeing someone with astronomical stats.:grin:
