    Anyone else notice the classless move by Marc Jackson?

    When Harden sprained his ankle and was ta the free throw line, he told his players to shoot the ball right after in bounding it, knowing full well that Rockets were going to foul to get the injured Harden out of the game.

    Thats exactly what they did. Great sportsmanship. The refs would have none of it though.

    Thats Marc Jackass for you. 100% hypocrite.

    Beverley showing that he can play a solid backup pg role, which we didn't have previously is gonna be huge down the stretch. We may not even need to stagger Harden and Lin's minutes cuz Bev could run the court well.

    PPat's shots are money. That's there all day with our guards + SFs. PPat + Mook make a good combo.

    Parsons is awesome. Still underrated.

    Omer needs a little help down there either from the backup spot or from the 4, but holds it down enough for our offense to overrun our opponents.

    Harden is a superstar.

    Let's beat the Clippers tomorrow!! Go Rockets!

    We blew the Sacramento game, so I don't know how well we close games. We need to start closing them consistently.

    Lin played well tonight. His & James shooting were off but they both got to the FT line in bunches & nailed everyone of them. Him & harden really exploited GSW terrible D. But those last two possesion by Lin where he was just dribbling were awful needs to make quicker decisions. Harden hit the 3 so that is all good.

    I think you need to appreciate life more, and also this win. Stop whinging. I noticed them holding the ball up to in the last 2.5 min....that was to kill time. All part of the strat to keep the lead. And it worked :rolleyes:

    Tomorrow's gonna be a fun game. No Harden @ Clippers, expect blowout. But then again, it's almost like the same expectation with the SPURS. Really don't know what will happen until it happens >_>.

    I'm not sure what game you were watching. For the last 3 plays, the rockets were up by at least 10 and with less than 2 minutes left. It's obviously coach's decision to whoever holding the ball use up all the clock before putting up a shot at the end. Lin himself put up a couple shots after running out the clock. I guess haters are just gonna hate.

    I think Lin has the potential to lead a better floor game than Steph, if not already. Lin's too inconsistent as of yet, but along with Parsons, he's still underrated as well. I don't know many teams and fans that think Lin is halfway decent!!

    Bench played great, they really gave us that push, but let me gush over our backcourt who still found a way to contribute when not everything was going their way.


    Our guards went 10 of 33, and yet...

    King James got a bunch of steals, hit all his free throws and played thru a bum knee & ankle [​IMG]
    Jeremy dished 10 assists, shot perfect free throws and got key Warriors in foul trouble [​IMG]

    [​IMG]
    James: LOL and then Bogut said "C U Next Tuesday"
    Jeremy: OMGLOL

    Howard so he can cause drama and brick even more FTs.
    Bynum so he can be the towel boy on the bench.
