    An ugly win, but a win nonetheless. Im proud of the hustle and grind they showed. You could already get glimpses of the HardLin' connection. They'll be a fun backcourt to watch. Nothing bad can be said about Asik da God. Parsons did his best Toney DouglASS impression on this Halloween night.

    And I hope this game was enough to cement Douglass and Morris' seats at the very end of the bench.

    What a steal getting Harden for only 80 million

    Agreed. Jesus. He was pretty bad. Hoping Delfino holds it down for the 2nd string so that Harden doesn't have to play 42 mins every game.

    Mchale needs to do a better job of coaching. If he keeps the star players minutes this high they'll all be exhausted before all-star break gets there!

    Wow that was something. Stunning debut. Feeling very giddy about the bearded man. I hope he can keep this up for the remainder of the season.

    Harden - Superstar in the making
    Delfino, Lin, Greg Smith, Asik - Doing their job well
    Parsons - Average, struggled a bit, hope he picks it up soon
    Douglas, Morris - Terrible. Let Machado and TJones play asap!

    Great win, too bad over 60% of the fan base didn't get to see it, could have been a great boost for the entire fan base. Instead you have thousands who just see the result and are even more furious that the Rockets allowed a deal to be made that left out so many of us.

    I wouldn't worry about it too much.

    It's the start of Harden's 4th season, and Lin's 26th start. He'll get even better over time.

    Anyone still worried about chemistry between Lin and Harden? :p

    Wow! Harden, Delfino and Asik saved this one. What we've learned is: Don't play Douglas or Cook and don't ever start Morris again.

    Still I wanna know why McHale didn't go for Terrence Jones at least.

    Seriously. Harden and Lin might have two of the top selling jerseys this year. Beardsane.

    Can't wait to hear why Jones didn't get any burn.

    Lin +19, 8 asts, 4 stls

    Harden, 37 pts.

    Undoubtedly one of the assoc's top tier backcourts.

    Asik - A competent Center, good defender, okay on offense. He's made me into a fan of his.

    Lin - He's obviously working on the kinks of coming back from surgery. Will need to improve on offense, seems like it will come with time.

    Harden - I know its one game, but this guy is very very good, I said it the moment we got him. It won't take long for Rocket fan doubters to eventually get with the program.

    The team though is going to struggle to win games, the Pistons are terrible and they didn't look too bad against the Rockets. SF and PF positions need to upgraded.
