    On a positive note, win or lose, the players got together at the end of the game, on a sign of unity.

    We have another tough game on Thursday, and the players need to forget about this game ASAP.

    We own the bulls, even at their place. Even when Michael was playing. We will make up for today's loss on Thursday.

    Mchale by now should have more faith in Jeremy. He was actually starting to get hot before going to the bench. Sure, the heat check 3 and 1 TO where he picked up the dribble was bad, but this team needed a scorer besides Harden who can create during the 4th quarter when Dwight was completely neutralized.

    Bev got too aggressive and it turned out to by a double edge sword for the Rockets. he should not have fouled Westbrooke, which is a terrible 3 point shooter with 2 sec shot clock left. The game was within reach if he didn't do. That was a gifted 3....

    At end of the Jeremy Lin's game highlights. The commentator stated; "when Jeremy Lin on the floor the ball moves, body moves, they got refreshed their offense." People all can see what's going on. But why only his own team coach refuse to recognize it.

    Next season unless someone gets hurt. But up until then we won't be seeing TD.

    Yeah, I don't understand that reassignment decision at all. We are entirely too reliant on consistent outside shooting not to be working him into the rotation, IMO.

    Do you think McHale would actually give the youngsta some burn. They sent him back down there because McHale already have his set rotation. IMO of course.

    LOL why is there a ****storm over what Beverley did? WB kept advancing and Beverley went to tap the ball away.

    Perfect position now. Will face Spurs at the second round. It will be very tough but is the only way that Rockets can win the WCF.

    We lost against a good team on their home court. As long as we don't lose against the bad ones, I'm feeling good about that 55-win season.

    My analysis as I checked in during the ending 3rd/4th quarter:

    Lin did good/bad things, but man it is much better than what he was doing in that horrible slump stretch. He got the steal but shot a toe on the line three pointer. He made a nice fade away but took a heat-check 3. He did his trade mark dribble inside, pick up the dribble and throw it away. But overall, he did fine, I'm just glad he's doing stuff again.

    D12 was nowhere to be seen, but considering how well he's been doing for us, this deserves a pass. Harden does his usual (I say that because I take for granted how much he comes through for us each and every game.)

    I would say the Bev/Westbrook story got overblown attention in which the Zebras were wet with their whistles. Garcia seems to have found his shot again, that's good.

    No one can guard Durant.

    Another game, another day. Let's go get that next win.

    I hope the coaching staff gives Beverley a lecture about playing INTELLIGENT defense because especially against OKC he tends to lose control. Fouling a three point shooter TWICE in the same game is beyond ridiculous.

    Crazy how Asik caught the ball on the side line, but struggles IN the game.

    When Asik dunks, seems he's more worried about hanging on the rim than making it.

    Softest dunker ever. He needs to throw it dunk down, not softly drop it through.

    Durant went Durant on us. There is no stopping that.
    I am more concerned about Bev's overaggressiveness on D.
