    This game never should've gone to overtime...This is a coaching failure..You have a 11pt lead and you bench Lin??? Terrible! Half of our loses can be attributed directly to pure coaching!!!:mad:

    I'm sure Lin would rather have 12 pts, 7 assists, and a win.

    This loss is on McHale, wouldn't of even needed OT if he didn't take Lin out. Had a 9 point lead, Spurs go on an 11-0 run. Absolutely inexcusable, he needs to go.

    Another loss. Another reason why we are the youngest team in the nba.

    Another reason why why shouldn't flip out or go crazy.

    Let's just be happy that we know Lin isn't really bad. It's the coaching staff holdin him back.

    What we should be yelling and screaming at is at our Texans. 11-1 and we are playing trashy as heck.

    I don't get it. He isn't the only one today, and this is not the first time that our players like Asik, Harden, Lin, Parsons, Morris, etc. look gassed at the end of games. It always seemed that way with last years crew as well.

    Honestly, I we always rag on Sampson and McHale on their rotations being non-sensical, but I honestly believe there are major conditioning issues with the Rockets in general that need to be fixed.

    You're right, players don't need to rest. Especially if they had played the entire half up to that point. Good coaching........

    I know it's rare that I get to see the Rockets at home on TV, but why was the crowd cheering louder for the Spurs? wtf?

    Any ways, I hope this shows to the coaches that Lin can play. STAGGER Lin's and Harden's minutes.

    This duo can work out, just like earlier.

    Inexperience. Gotta hand it to our guys though. Hanging in there against the Spurs who are so much more experienced.

    That's our veteran presence, Delfino :)
    I joked earlier but he really does seem to think he's Magic Johnson. Why does he insist on trying to run the point? porque Carlos? :(

    I can't hate on Asik though. We were expecting a stiff and instead, we got one of the best big men in the game.
