    Detroit's announcers told the truth, "When Jeremy Lin sat down, they were in trouble. When he came back, he solidified them"

    JLin +23
    JHarden +18

    Toney Douglas -14. Need to call Machado's number as backup PG.

    OKC looks really foolish now trading their best playmaker away. 37 pts, 12 assts, 6 rebs, 5 days with new teammates.

    Oh yeah, both Harden and Lin have 4 steals

    Good question. Maybe the "experience" factor. Watching Morris try to create his own shot was...pretty awkward.

    Murphy becoming like Drexler, he just said Harden had 27 points, 12 rebounds and 6 assists / steals :grin:

    No. We would be up by 20 if he hadn't kept Morris and Douglas in for so long.

    Can't believe Harden is only 23. Lin's gonna get better cuz of Harden. We need more players to step it up though. Other than Lin, everybody seemed to look around for someone to rescue them.

    This win could've been even more convincing if mchale did his job better. Terrible subbing, and none of the rookies EVERYONE is so hyped about? C'mon man!

    True he's got to do better at game management.

    Aside from a clunky 3rd quarter, I thought the rockets looked very good.

    Chandler needs to buy a six pack of grit.

    I must say, Morey is looking like a brilliant gm:

    harden
    asik
    lin
    delfino

    new signings were all excellent. lin made a few mistakes but overall played well.

    We have crowned our new king! Those stats are Lebron-esque.

    37 points/6 rebs/12 asts

    Tricky, because the team looks like garbage without lin or harden out there.

    Game should have been a blowout but McHale kept the Pistons in it.
