    Love the finish in Spanish--reminded me of George Carlin's bit about listening to the Spanish broadcasters call a baseball game...think it was Carlin, but, IDK

    It's not like asking Asik to be a scorer at all. Harden & Lin are both very skilled at both distributing & scoring. Now you can get into an argument as to who is better at what, but they have a similar skill set, which is why some think pairing Pat with Harden makes more sense (although last night Lin & Harden played great together). Asik, on the other hand, is not a skilled scorer.

    Sounds like Dwight is buying into pick-and-roll now? Love the adjustments the team is making last few games.

    “When we play inside-out or we get things going in the pick-and-roll with me and James or me and Jeremy and the ball is moving, it makes it tough for the defense,” Howard said. “When the ball is stagnant, that’s when teams have a good chance of defending us. When we’re moving, making plays for each other, it’s hard.”

    Glad we won, otherwise this thread would be a mean and nasty place today.:grin:

    Great to have Parsons back. He may not be our best player, but maybe he is our most important player to have on the floor. The offense just works better when he is in the lineup.

    TJones just keeps having good games. He's a long way from being a finished product, but he is contributing in a big way every game.

    The Rockets are learning how to get the ball to Dwight. Boston is a bad team, so I guess that played a part, but the Rockets did a good job of getting Dwight the ball.

    Lin had a really good game.

    Looking forward to getting Bev and Asik back in the lineup.

    He owns this site don't tell him what to do

    Clutch together with the majority of true rockets fans here will always be ROFS and everyone else are frowned upon

    You do understand that Yao and Ming were the two best players and there is no hof vs dof going on here right now

    It's just a group of delusional fanatics hoping the 4th best player of this team somehow brings back linsanity and trashes the coach, the best, second best, and 3rd best players of this team because they feel it's blocking their dream

    Are you really that dense? You are accusing the owner of ClutchFans of having this BBS simply to make money. You are also pulling this opinion out of your arse. Spin it however you like, dude, but there's no other way to interpret this post:

    What an idiotic statement. Clutch has been running this site for well over a decade, the vast majority of that time doing it on his own dime and the contributions of members, without any ads at all. He has upgraded the servers and software out of his own pocket. He has a family, kids, a business that has to take a huge amount of his time, a business that he supports that family with, and ClutchFans remains both his hobby and his passion (aside from Mrs. Clutch, of course!), and something he could walk away from tomorrow if he became beyond tired of reading crap from "members" like you. And to top it off, you've never bothered to contribute to this BBS that you are so busy using to crap all over its owner.

    Why don't you either park your bull**** at the door or, taking your crap with you, leave, and close the door behind you as you depart. Thanks in advance, chump.

    The way things are going, there won't be two sides much longer. One side has angered the power that be, and wrath shall cleanse all the evil out of the site.

    This refutes the statements by some who say that Lin's "disappearance" on the offensive end in previous games was due to Lin himself. It is clearly due to coaching strategy and Lin is simply following orders

    Solid win against a team of veterans with deep playoff experience. The celtics are a superstar away from being good.

    ?

    And yes, I remember you. You're the same person that told me I shouldn't post because I my lack of higher education.

    And now you're telling someone else not to post.

    Yeah, right.
