    I can't believe Harden was traded to us and he's as efficient being the go-to guy as he was the sixth man. The basketball gods(Morey) are smiling on us.

    Remember when Lin airballed a last second three vs MIA? I sure as **** don't, drilled two huge ones without hesitation to beat OKC tonight. This probably is the best backcourt in the league

    No doubt,

    Harden 46 points, 8 rebounds, 6 assists, 1 steal (2TO)

    Lin 29 points, 8 assists, 6 rebounds, 2 steals (3TO)

    Hell no, Deron is overrated as hell and Joe is having one of his worst seasons as a net.

    The Harden trade is looking like a steal more and more by the day.

    OKC still did well, but Harden is worth so much more than Lamb, Martin, and a couple of firsts. It's not even close.

    Harden score 50 points on 15fg and without ref help. Amazing.

    Again Parsons is overlooked. Good enough to be runner up for best player for the Rockets tonight.

    that's the point! the 4th quarter is when games are WON. lin turned it up and rose to the occasion. russell westbrook is MAD.

    JLin7 is the best PG for H-town since SF3.

    I actually think as Lin gets better we will be a younger version of these guys.

    And when you realize this is only the beginning, a dose of their full potential that's to come, when they grow to do this consistently.... [​IMG]

    Westbrook also went to the foul line ten times. Lin went to the line three times. 7 TOs on him ,2 of which were steals by Lin. (actually it might be one steal on westbrook, not sure.) Lin had 3 TOs that entire game, and with no ref love at all. It'd be nice the refs actually called fouls on lin, unless its super obvious they don't give him anything. They give him a technical for calling the ref out on giving greg smith that one foul when durant drove by him. i think lin did fine against westbrook. Westbrook goes off against the best defenders in the league., and he needed a lot of foul calls to help him.
