    We got destroyed when Lin went to the bench with the quick 3rd+4th on the phantom block/charge. Douglas -14. Everybody was standing around with zero energy doing nothing with Lin out Douglas in.

    Overall game thoughts...
    All of the Rockets free agent acquisitions were really good...Asik/Lin and Delfino played well

    Trade was a no brainier...Harden we all knew could ball...tonight showed...how valuable he was to a thunder team...guess one mans trash is another mans treasure...

    The Rockets need to find a more balanced scoring though...cant have Harden be the only source of scoring...the PF's need to improve...

    and bottom line...the bench needs time to gel...but they had a bad game...

    Good Rockets win...have to win games that you have to...in order to be a playoff threat...GO ROCKETS

    Jlin +\- is +23... Just sayin

    Harden was solid. But this game exposed our bench weakness. This had to improve to make the team sustainable. Jlin as usual was making the team better. Not a fantastic game for him but good enuf.

    The rockets maybe one player away from going deep in the playoffs.

    This!

    I thought T Jones was quite good (for a rookie). He should start.

    Both Harden and Lin have 4 TO, anyone care? It's a game we've WON. And it is just only 1 game we ever played with our new star. The chemistry is already there. Beardsanity!

    That's just insane.

    And yeah, Machado should get a look soon.

    Scott Machado should play instead of Douglas.

    Get this team a decent PF and a PG that doesn't completely suck off the bench and we might have something here.

    We are at least three players away from going deep in the playoffs.

    We still need a capable power forward. Luis Scola would fit really well on this team...

    We still need a backup point guard. Really impressed with Lin's play tonight, but Toney Douglas? Wow, is he terrible.

    We also need a credible backup center. Our defense was lost without Asik out there.
