    Melo is a blackhole on offense, Harden is one of the best passers in the league when he wants to be. D"Antoni proved to the world that Melo can't run an offense.

    Lin primary ball handling in the half. Only 3 turnovers in the half. Imagine that.

    I knew where you were coming from...just jivin with you. His height is no more a benefit shooting 3's than rebounding...he does both equally bad. I seriously don't know if you let him shoot 3's UNMOLESTED if he could shoot 30%. And he just doesn't put forth EFFORT on rebounding...none,zero. No box out, no move toward the ball...looks like he's watching a fireworks show every time a shot goes up.

    James Anderson needs more minutes. Many more minutes even when Harden is back

    Me too, that'll mean it's a blowout. Everyone is hustling on D and O. I hope we'll get to see a little more Anderson and Garcia in the future.

    Rockets are playing defense and getting high % looks on offense. No ISO play !!!

    I can sense Ohlbrecht, T-Jones, and Brooks will be coming out soon. Starters just gotta play another 5 minutes of good basketball ... make Vaughn clear the Orlando bench.

    You're seriously still under the belief that there are such things as "Lin Only Haters"? People who like the Rockets but simply hate to see Lin do well?

    My goodness...:rolleyes:

    Not sure if Houston is doing good defense and shooting well, or just that Orlando is THAT bad.:eek: If this keeps going the game should be over by the end of 3rd quarter.

    I am a lin fan, but I will say, Harden is a team player too.
    the way he plays just Machell asks him.
    As a coach, Machell fails to build up a good chemistry in the team. So there is no choice left for him, except let harden handles the ball all the time.

    Smokin! I love this kind of basketball. I know it is the Magic, but the Rockets in the last two games are looking like a playoff team. Hey Morey, I told you to hang on to Smith and Lin. You didn't listen and it cost you. Big time. Next time, check with Solid on CF.:grin:

    I remember the first Knicks game in November was amazing. The teamwork, the ball movement and everyone was playing great.

    2 turnovers. He's playing very well. But Omer and Smith again take center stage.
