    Oops, sorry, forgot you hate the Lakers, Jocar. Would it help that I am slowing warming up to the Rockets so much so that I find myself torn about which team to cheer for on Tuesday? :(

    I agree! Poor Darren, he should have been given more time to grow his games. But Mav's coach Carlyle did say that even though he may be coming off the bench it doesn't mean he will play less minutes. On a side note, Darren (from UCLA) has always been a little hot headed. That may have more to do with the "demotion" than his actual playing ability.

    Great game last night for Jeremy. He's already showing major improvement in the areas we know he's needing to work on to bring balance to the offense.

    If he can continue to keep the defense honest with his 3 point shot, finish at the rim like he did tonight, and continue to do all the other little things that he deserves praise in, it's going to take the Rockets offense to a much higher level. Add to that Asik & Pattersons development and wow.... Good stuff.

    Barf! Lakers fans make me sick. If youre not from LA and you are a Lakers fan, you are a horrible human being and i blame bad parenting for your downward spiral in life. May god bless your souless soul.

    Keep dreaming in lala land. Have fun being a fan of a underachieving team because Lin is a HOUSTON rocket.

    Well, in my defense, I am from LA, and grew up watching the ShowTime Lakers (that's why the Clippers can never be my team, they will always be the team that used to be in San Diego). Mt favorite player will forever be Magic Johnson. I do have a soul, and I am watching the Rockets.

    Isn't there some sort of rule here where if someone claims to be a fan of the Lakers, Spurs, or Jazz they automatically get the Scarlett Letter F on their account, or are banished from the ROCKETS FANSITE?

    You're from LA so it's perfectly fine. I understand. Its the ones with no connection to LA that annoys me.

    What was Lin like in high school? In your opinion, why wasn't he offered a scholarship to a top bball school?

    What about Harden?

    Thanks. :)

    They are allowed to have internet. How else would they 'excite' themselves when all forms of sexual pleasure are driven out of state?

    Lin had a good game but the overreaction over a 19/8 statline is pretty amusing.

    Glad to see him attacking the basket more though. That's just where he excels and it looks like he's slowly gaining confidence in his game with each passing match.

    It goes both ways. I have seen people say he belongs in the D League after having a bad game. He is just a polarizing player.

    So far he has been pretty average because he has been utilized pretty poorly and he has been playing pretty passively but he is starting to be more aggressive and is starting to have more freedom when it comes to running an offense.

    Can't wait for the rematch at MSG. Youngest team vs oldest team. I hope Parsons drops 50 at MSG.

    please when Harden put up those 2 great games at the start of the season...

    there were a few long time Rox fans ready to proclaim him the next Lebron James...

    all I could think was let the dude develop... and I didnt want to be around here when he has a bad shooting game

    people will over react...

    Would be cool to see Lin vs one of his hero's Kidd and former Cali high school Legend, just like a young Kidd vs his hero G .Payton another Cali high school B-Ball legend
