    It's getting worse with each game too.

    Literally everyone is just standing there watching Harden, it's pretty sad.

    Good first half. These game threads would be a lot more fun if everyone stopped berating our own players. Just enjoy the games guys, we have a great, exciting young team!

    He's made 3 3-pointers, most of them wide open off of offensive rebounds.

    i'm surprised how well officiated this game has through 2 quarters. I was expecting dwight with 14 fts already. Greg smith has played better on d, going straight up with his hands.
    Lin is shooting 3s too much, those should go to parsons but he is getting everyone involved.
    Harden could go for 40 again.

    3rd quarter will decide the whether we win. But it won't decide whether we lose. If we jump out to a 15+ point lead, then I think we have this. If we stink it up...well its gonna be a long 2nd half.

    Oh and even though Lin is play making well, we're gonna need points from him later.

    That's fine. He's not going to be hitting that all night (and if they do, more power to him). I'd rather lose b/c of Blake than Dwight.

    I feel like the Rockets players aren't that bad on individual defense, including Harden. They just have trouble defending as a team. Not enough experience.

    Right. What did they expect when we traded for him?

    i agree. I get the 'allure' of Dwight but he only gives you about 6-7 more pts on offense. Asik is equal to him on rebounds, defense, picks, passing, and oh he isn't a prima donna.

    D12 is:
    1) a whiny bit*h
    2) injury-prone
    3) More expensive

    not sure 60 games of D12 is better than Asik playing a full season. I'll take the Gobbler and an upgrade at the 4. Thank you very much

    Lakers won't even be in the playoffs if the refs weren't helping them

    Lin has the fastest accleration of any Rockets ever tested, and he just showed it.

    He has come on and has done really good job on Howard. DH is frustrated ...I have seen a couple of pushes after the play on Asik from him. Just hope officiating doesn't decide this....it scares me that they may.

    Glad we are ahead. We could've done better but I don't know whether our defense is that good or LA is choking it up.

    Asik needs to get used to lobs haha. Good half of well played, fairly reffed (so far) ball.

    Anybody else notice G.Smith and JLIN talking trash to Dwight. Getting in the Big Entitled Monsters head.

    Lin Howard would be a more deadly combo than Lin Chandler.
