    Wish I could say that about Worell and Drexler. They need to fire Worell.

    It might be questionable, but Irving clearly threw his arm out, so I say no flop.

    I am with U. I hate to watch Harden ISOs, trapped to turn ball over for fast breaking points. It's simply ugly basketball.

    I think it was to illustrate that the mask hit Jlin's face and that he wasn't flopping. The reaction of Lin's head made it look like one

    Harden had SEVEN steals tonight. That'll move him up to #5 in the SPG rankings at 2 SPG.

    No wonder Irving was so mad. Lin son'ed him by kissing him on his head like a good dad does with his son. We might have another CP3-Pau incident on our hands.

    Anybody else have CSN? They replayed that possession with a great angle, and I could have sworn Irving's head hit Lin's face.

    Probably need to see the entire replay. I just remembered the forearm push then then head snapped back.

    Exciting game, impressive win. Lin played a great game and did everything to get Harden going and it payed of. He could have been more selfish to make the headlines about Lin out scoring Irving, but its the "W" that counts and he played it that way.

    But then, that means we should do that all game. Actually, I'm not so afraid of the half court game, because I believe that Harden, Lin, Asik, Parsons, PPat can adapt and play well in the half court setting. But, we are a run n gun team, and as such, we shouldn't play Harden ball (once again for the sensitive types, I have no problem with that) for the last 4 minutes of every game regardless of whether he's hot or not. With Harden's talent, and our offensive focus on Harden getting his shots, he's gonna get 25 regardless. I was the one who touted how important he was last night.


    Shoot. Harden was awesome today as well. Whatever. Good game, let's keep up the team ball. Lin is an inconsistent piece of doodoo and I can't wait till he gets consistent, though I love his defense at times. Parsons will be back, I fully believe that, but his shots, as well as tendncy to look for his to get it going is not optimal. Were he Lin, he would be getting killed on these boards. Love Parsons, though. Harden's boss. Rockets are gonna get home court advantage.. Whaddaya say about that!!

    That's right! :cool:
    I wish they were the Rockets' commentators, Im sure they wish as well :p
    Even when the Cavs scored, their excitement sounded so forced lol

    So this was a good win against a 8-29 team? come on now. a win is a win of course, but we should have had control of the game well before the last 2 mins. im sure EVERYONE can agree on that. learn the difference between negative and constructive.
