    Even though it never felt like the Rockets were a danger to the Spurs in the $Q and they were a bit headless I liked how they recovered from such a bad start. A good learning experience for this young squad.

    When you shoot 26 free throws at 57%, and lose by 6, it's not hard to guess what could have changed the game.

    Well, 43 mins for Parsons (who will be guarding Durant tomorrow), 40 mins for Harden, and 35 mins for Lin (who is gonna get torched by Westbrook). Guaranteed loss tomorrow night.

    I think Aldrich played well but Mchale took too long to take him out in the 4th; some of his defensive rotations were just terrble leading to easy(ier) buckets.

    I'm fine with Mchale playing the starters longer in this game since this is the more important game in this Back to back.

    Mchale should have taken Harden out of the game when he grabbed 4 fouls in the 3rd. I think this game would have been a little different if he were allowed to start the 4th qtr.

    we are the youngest team in the league.

    Does that mean the refs lost too?

    Rockets really need to get a PF involved. This game was 4 against 5.

    Lin just keeps killing his 3P% but still 9/16 from the floor. At the end of the season, he's going to have 25% on 3's and 45% overall.

    If ASik = Duncan then the set would be effective

    another thing. when coach said we were going to play at this pace, he said he wanted a 10 man rotation? where is the 10th man?

    Harden's lack of contests on Green's 1st q 3s set the spurs in motion.
