    Let's not forget that Lin makes up for at least 1-2 TO with steals.

    Have Lopez and Davis in the paint is always a bad sign. However, purely on records it's a game Rockets need to take.

    Man, this looks like the Smush Parker Lakers now. Kobe getting all the stats but they ain't getting anywhere.

    Very nice win.

    Slow start, but it's looking like this team just takes time to get in rhythm. Not so good in that we're in a double digit hole a little more than is ideal, on the other hand it's not so bad in that our guys don't panic and have the offensive tools to make a 10-15 point lead a non-issue.

    I think we all need to remember that you very, very RARELY get 4 consistent quarters from players as young as ours. That we're closing out the 3rd and 4th quarters so well is pretty darn amazing. It shows that our guys are hungry, competitive, and aren't wilting under the pressure.

    As for Lin's TO's, TO's are just part of the learning process for any young PG. They're down from last year, and I fully expect them to decline over the rest of the season and following seasons as his chemistry and passing judgement improves.

    The same applies to our offense and defense in general. This team will continue to gel and improve as we play out the season.

    21-14. That's a .666 win percentage, with the 3rd hardest schedule in the NBA. That's unbelievable considering the youth of the players and turn over in the roster (13 new players).

    Just enjoy it for what it is... a young team playing on talent, with flashes of brilliance and moments where you want to smack your forehead due to the stupidity of some plays.

    And be thankful that we're not like other young teams... IE, scraping the bottom of the win/loss barrel.

    This team is showing tremendous poise and potential for their youth. It points to an incredibly bright future. :grin:
