    Thomas Robinson will be a perennial allstar when he improves his jumper. The game will slow down for him and everyone knows it takes years for bigs to get adjusted.

    I think they are complaining because the smooth ride became rocky towards the end...

    I dont blame them, it was totally preventable...

    I can prove it

    Specifically, odds are 5:1 against the gambler hitting 6. He should accept $5 for every $1 he bets. If he accepts $4 but wins, you think he can't be criticised, because his success has already happened.

    That's failing logic. You fail

    More like McHale has less faith in his starters (except Harden and maybe Parsons) than any other teams. He probably sees Lin and Asik as replacement level players that their production can be easily be replaced by any bench guys with form.

    T-Rob was missing a lot of point blank dunks and layups ... but at least trying to rebound his miss and tip it back in. He was also playing great defense and stifling the Magic pick n' rolls.

    D-Mo didn't bringing anything on offense or defense, he was getting schooled by Harris and Nicholson. He wasn't rebounding the ball, just tipping it out.

    Harden sitting in the 4th happens all the time??? just once and that's probably cause he was hurt.

    I really hope he works on his post moves first. I feel like if he develops a jumper, he'll be one of those guys who forgets his other skills and chuck jumpers all game.

    So have we decided we want to be #6, 7 or 8? I think either 6 or 8 is good for Rockets.

    Dice? Weren't you the dude who mentioned "false equivalence"?

    Rolling dice has nothing to do with a basketball game.

    I think D-Mo may be slightly rattled about losing his starting spot.

    This!

    but according to CF he has 20 games & then we declare him a bust & the Rockets losers of the trade.

    I don't think the Rockets have a chance of beating the Spurs, Nuggets, or Thunder, so they'd better hope to get 6th and Memphis or the Clippers move up.

    Conversation wasn't even about Lin, but of course! you had to bring him into it.
    Lin fans... you have guys like "raskol" to thank for any not-so-warm welcomes of you and your favorite player here at CF. He's one of the guys who turns yours and Lin's allies into enemies, when they weren't b4. Spoken from experience.

    Not in his blood. The guy likes the physical part of the game. He reminds me so much of Amare early on. And I'm talking about rookie Amare. Some players have it and some don't. He will be a stud one day.
