    Any good shooter who takes an open shot is a good shot.

    The problem with Lin having the ball is he can't create his own shot, he is too easy of a cover.

    Harden can always get that step back jumper, while Lin doesn't have anything in his repitoire like that.

    Should of been side out of bounds harden inbounding. Harden passes it high to asik, asik holds, harden fakes going over the top and bursts toward left side of the basket, asik pass, layup or dishout for 3, gg we win. me coach now

    I really hope McHale runs a play instead of just ISO. Doubt this will work in the playoffs.

    What the heck are you talking about? Lin can most certainly create his own shot...mid range shots included

    wide open shots are always a good shot.
    come on man, even big man that dont normally shoot 3s in a game can probably hit a lot of their 3s in the gym.

    you ALWAYS take that shot.

    Unless its Omer or a big man you ALWAYS ALWAYS take a shot like that.

    just bad luck.

    Consistently?

    I don't think so. Half the time he drives he gets covered up and has to pass out. There is no time for that with 8 seconds on the clock.

    the thing is Harden had like 3 chances in the last minute. first 2 drives were just bad. last shot I agree with though.

    AGAIN, no rational person is arguing about that last shot, people are talking about the Harden previous three possessions. *****in stupid poll.

    Good look just did not go, I will take that all day. Rockets did a great job of coming back against the GRZ & Refs. This game seemed like it was predetermined that the Rockets must lose.
