    Great game. Rockets gave it their all despite missing some 3s. Very proud of the effort and toughness.

    So proud of the effort in this team. We just needed 1 or 2 more threes to go down.

    Kudos to McHale making the lineup switch, employing 2-3 zone. And Patrick freakin' Beverley. What a beast.

    G.SMITH has the lowest +/- again.
    T-Jones should have more minutes, at least he can shoot 3.

    All they posted was how Harden is shooting a low % even though he was forced to take a lot of jumpers at the end of the shot clock, time for the Rockets to lose and show you guys how much they need Lin. When the Rockets started going down in the third all they posted was how much Harden sucks and that we were gonna lose without Lin.

    Well, depend on how you looked at it. Got blown by the OKC in the 3rd, then they took a little nap to allows us back in, and stepped on the gas again when they needed to. Moral win? Sure.

    Actually Westbrook shut himself down. He went from super hot to super cold and simply missed the shots he was making earlier in the game- regression to the mean

    Agreed. There is something about Lin, when he does play well, that makes this team much more potent. Hate to see him not miss a single game in the regular season and play just 1.5 playoff game.

    LOL, Lin is the worst jump-shooting guard on the roster, hands down.

    Beverley has stepped up when it counts, dude is reminding me a lot of Bledsoe. Think he shoots better but Bledsoe is more explosive.

    Definitely Beverley had something to do with it.

    You are funny. Go read through the thread and you'll find how the whipping boy of the minutes went from Lin->Brook->Harden->Asik.

    great effort, but stealing a win in okc would have felt about as good as leaving dallas 2-0 felt in 05..

    That no call on Perkins changed the game, was it just me or did it look like Parsons was goaltended by KD in the 4th when we were up by 2, I think it was 95-93 and Parsons had a layup and it looked like it had already hit the glass when KD swatted it.

    They said going for a lose ball, but i think it was from a charge. Like someone putting a bat to your chest.

    Beautiful Basketball
    and Mchale did a great job tonight!

    I forgive him to give AB a try when Lin is injured

    Parsons 17 points on 23 shots, just terrible. Hope he plays better next game.
