    Since Harden is out and Lin would presumably be more involved in the offense, the commentators will probably be talking about Lin more.

    Everytime the commentators say he can't go left, then that means a shot of <insert liquor>, whiskey for me.

    hehe

    Poor James, though. He really wants to play in this one....We'll see. Maybe he'll be able to go yet.

    We know Lin can't do anything on back-to-backs, and this is against all-NBA 1st defense CP3 and hyper-athletic defender Bledsoe. I very very much doubt we're going to see Spurs game redux.

    Even though it's a b2b, I think Lin will be fine on defense since he kind of took it easy last night.

    We could win if:

    1. We can stop Crawford from going off.
    2. PPat and Morris perform well in pick defense.

    Would have been better if we had Greg Smith in the rotation in case of a foul trouble.

    Vegas expecting the blowout. Rockets are now 10.5 point underdogs. Over/under 208.

    It's going to be worse, unfortunately. It happens play to play; substitution to substitution.

    If that bothers you avoid the game thread. Because you're right. This game (barring injury) isn't going to change or prove anything about any player.

    I know, I know, nothing can stop the debate. That's what fans do. Just hope getting the words out early and we can see less of it later;) Wish we all enjoy the game.

    Loss with no harden. Crawford is going to kill us. Beverly is probably going to get close to 30 minutes tonight ( about the same as Lin ) so some of you will be happy. Calling a big game for parsons offensively.

    With ASG coming up, Lin should go 48 minutes.

    He should also play point guard, let others hand him the ball and stand in corner.

    If it happens, McHale will be: "I did say that Lin is a young PG who will be inconsistent. This happened to be one of those better moments. We'll see next game. And also, Harden was able to walk to sit on the bench with the guys on his own without clutches or limping. I know he was in a lot of pain. That shows true grit and heart."

    :grin:
    Just a joke guys.

    I have feeling Harden's going to tough it out but with or without him it's a loss.
