    Harden reminded me of the bad Russell Westbrook at times tonight...pounding the ball while teammates are open, then taking bad contested shots. Some poor decision making tonight, I expect better from him.

    No, no, we cut the lead to an insurmountable 4 points instead.

    Asik also got straight owned Hibbert, I expected him to at least win the rebounding battle but he got bullied all game.

    I agree. Lin's 3 turnovers leading to 6 easy points put the Rockets in 22-9 hole.

    It depends on whether he is making the play or he is standing in the corner.

    Mchale is really trying to develop Harden. The first goal would be to make sure harden can play 48 minutes per game and more if OT is needed

    Yes. Trade Lin and use Harden as a full time PG. Maybe Rockets will be able to get a good PF out of Lin. It will make everybody happier and clutchfans more peaceful.

    yup and those 3 turnovers cause harden to shoot 6-24 and 3 TO and parsons to shoot 5-16 , 0-3 from 3pt and dmo 0-2... yup all Jlin's fault

    and and it was so bad that even asik was only able to grab 5 rebounds in 26 mins....

    Lol. It is funny that these guys come out only when we lose a game.

    You've been repeating the same argument since the start of the post-game discussion and which has been consistently debunked. Fact is the team did come from the hole to be with 4 points so, yeah, I think his rebuttal is plenty sufficient.

    That is unless you were expecting the team to blow out the Pacers... Then I will have some of what you're having.

    does anyone know the specific reason brooks isn't playing more or is it because of beverlys play? i really liked how brooks played the last time he wore a rockets uniform and thought he would be a good fit for some minutes to get the rust off.

    3 turnovers leading to 6 easy Pacer points is actually 12 point turnaround had Rockets scored on those possessions. Score could have been 16-15 instead of 22-9.

    Except the team has consistently looked mediocre at best when we go full Harden. At the cost of having a mediocre team? Well piss on peace.

    Pretty much. If Lin passes immediately after crossing half court, Lin sucks, D-Mo sucks, Asik sucks, and the Rockets is mediocre; if Lin initiates the offense probing the defense, Parsons rocks, Harden rocks, D-Mo rocks, Asik rocks, and the Rockets are dominating.

    Basically, it's just a matter of whether the coaches decide to go full Harden in any given game.

    Actually, only 2 of Lin's turnovers led to easy buckets.
