    It's amazing how Harden with 1 dribble and 2 steps can weave all the way to the rim from the 3 point line. He loves to extend his arms and show the ball at the end of his drives to draw the foul and he still has the strength to finish through the contact.

    Teams now have to respect Parsons from the 3 point line and this should open things up for Harden and Lin even more as well as open up lanes for his own drives to the bucket.

    I'm hoping some weight comes off Lin's shoulders now that he finally faced the Knicks and all the media hoopla that comes with it and start to relax and play better.

    It was great how the team has stepped up for both Asik vs the Bulls and now Lin vs the Knicks. Let's hope that the team steps up for Harden vs OKC. These types of wins that they are getting for each other against their former teams are great for building chemistry for a young team.

    Let's hope the "You should of paid me" Rockets tour continues!

    The Knicks had no chance. Melo simply couldn't guard Parsons, and Kidd couldn't guard Harden. Game over.

    @ 0.25 Bull says : "Chandler Pasons is amphibious". AMPHIBIOUS? :eek: wow.
    Did he mean to say Ambidextrous? Imagine if Clyde said that - there would be 3 threads all asking for his head. :p

    You must be new to Rockets telecasts.

    “I can go right, I can go left, I’m amphibious” – Former NBA player, Charles Shackleford

    Its just a joke that Bullard and Worrell pull out every once in a while when a player shows ambidextrous skills.

    A while ago he misspoke, calling D-Mo amphibious when he meant ambidextrous. After that it became a running joke.

    If Parsons could shoot like that every game, he would be a superstar. I just hope he stops thinking he's a PG. Parsons is a good passer also. As long as Parsons lets the game come to him and doesn't force bad shots, he should be good.

    why not? He's a terrific playmaker. At University of Florida, he was known as a point-forward, and in his draft interviews he styled himself as a do-it-all Lamar Odom. Except he's shown better poise, BBIQ, and 3pt shotmaking ability.

    His lone weakness entering the NBA was his woeful FT percentage, but he improved on that starting 2nd half of last season.

    Coaches trust him to not make mistakes, thus the added responsibilities and playing time.

    Probably the best contract in the nba. This guy deserves to be a 25 million dollar man if he can keep his current form going.

    that was absolutely...sick.

    Has anyone else ever noticed how beautiful his form is? That stroke especially during that game was smooth.
