As much as I dislike McHale's strategy with these team and his effed up rotations, I feel like he's learned from last season's collapse at the end and has prepped the players to be mentally prepared, and not take anything for granted. With that said, Rockets win 105-97
Lin doesn't play against the bench, hence he will never play Douglas, but. I still remember the three Isaiah Thomas drained in Lin's face during crunch time. *Shudder.
td has always been a consummate pro. he was always praising and helping jeremy, even when he lost his job in ny. the guy was always first to congratulate his teammates and cheer them on (just like bev). i hope he has a solid gm along with ppat.
90% of LOH are New Yorkers. Disregard all Houston hating posters here. True fans don't hate their own teams.
If you don't understand the level of ridiculousness you're showing...well...then I guess there's not much I can do... If you legit think that Mchale doesn't want Lin or Asik to do well, then you're really just a delusional and sadly ignorant person.
It's hard to believe that someone could be so petty isn't it. Pride is one of the 7 deadly sins and McHale has it in spades.
I think you have a habit of bringing Lin into every thread more often than any other poster. That is you instigate Lin arguments in topics unrelated to Lin.

Wednesday is the only night of the week that I'm occupied and can't watch basketball, and I swear sometimes it seems like the NBA stacked the schedule so the Rockets play every Wednesday. Anyways, the Rockets weak road record means this is no sure thing. They're going to have to go out and earn it, but they should be well-rested after the way McHale finished the Orlando game. I think they squeeze it out. 101-96, Houston.

No sleeper tonight please! I hope D Mo can get a little something going, but if Harden is ~90% of himself it will be a welcome addition as compared to recent games. Maybe T Rob has his revenge game tonight as well!
Let Lin be the Point Guard. Winning percentage will increase. Let Harden focus more on defense and offense. Winning percentage will increase more. Just max them out. They have no conflict. Go Rockets!
