Terrific game by the Rockets...these were games that they found a way to loose early in the season...now...with a consistent effort off the bench...and by them being able to keep status quo, the Rockets are hanging around long enough for the Closer, James Harden to knock out the opponents...Go Rockets...


Everyone Accounted To play A Defensively Intense and Close game. rocKets win, Andrew Bogut.

Go Rockets

 

Think about it this way. If we have to go 1-1, which game do you prefer to win? I'd say GSW. A win against a good team will give our young players more confidence. A lose against a not so good team will remind our players not overlook any team.

 

Curry's defense is pretty bad. He can't keep up with Lin's first step but yet he plays him extremely close.

 

jeez who freaking cares, Lin came back, they won, so you're wrong it wasnt a mistake.

It was a 9 pt game to start the 4th....Lead got cut to 6, Harden came back in. It blew back up to 10 on Harden assists to Morris and Delfino 3's....Lin comes back and the lead was never lower than 8. Steph Curry scored 2 on Lin the rest of the 4th so I don't get it, McHale made the right call.

 

Great win!

 

I am impressed with Harden's toughness. I thought the dude is going to be out of the game judging by the way he walk....there is no way in hell he's coming back. It looks like they give him some type of Chinese medicine and he's right back and i am like what.....the Harden i seen limping around is not the same player....wtf lol. It's like a miracle. Nevertheless, that dude is tough like Kobe when it comes to injury.

 

David Lee = Poor man's Parsons, fatter and much uglier.

 

Check out all the assists. Parsons, for one, had a mighty fine game. Asik with his humdrum 13 and 15. Lin had a nice game, and, I didn't really realize it until I looked at the stats, but Beverley filled up the stat chart in 19 minutes.

 

The more important thing is that we are now 2 points closer in seed. Way better than beating the kings and losing to GSW conference wise.

 

This game showed how far we've come. In the beginning of the season, we would've let this game slip away. Now, however, we know how to close out games. Very proud of this team to win despite poor shooting from multiple starters.

 

I think McHale pushed all the right buttons tonight. He left Beverley in the game for a pretty long stretch in the third and fourth quarter and I think he played well. Also Harden was coming in and out of the game because of sprained ankle, but rest of team, including Morris and Delfino off the bench, really stepped up. The team was a little sluggish the first half, but they came out strong the second half.

 

Key moment in the the Game

Lin drives and Curry fouls him early in the 3Q getting his 4 foul

GSW switch Barnes on Lin , Curry on Parsons = Parsons goes off

Great game by Parsons

 

Bam! This is how I feel tonight! (starting at 0:23)

He's inefficiency yesterday is part of the reason we lost...

Our team is inconsistent. Thank god the Warriors aren't a good team. Our backcourt was garbage today and Parsons stepped up.

 

my heart stopped for a second because i thought parsons hurt his beautiful face and loss a tooth

 

Looked intentional, but maybe not.

 

Lee is STILL pretty popular with NYK's female fans...

 

signs of a young team

 

I think Lin proved he is not worse than Curry overall. Lin's shooting will catch up, and I think he will be in the same category as Curry.
