    I would bet Lin is right at 32 minutes per game. Bev is gonna get minutes but it won't be at Lins expense. I expect a three guard rotation of Harden, Lin and Bev. Plenty of minutes to go around.

    Dmo needs a nickname like Maggette (Bad p*rn)

    Not really, we need to cut someone or send someone to NBDL, who would you sugest. The way they were playing wasnt just bad, it was awful. They need time to grow, they will have that chance in the D league.

    You expect Lin to go from 32 to 25 min per game, yet his numbers to go from 13 and 6 up to 14 and 7?

    D-Mo will pull some flashy manueveur to get open and misses it when it's right there. Not a fan.

    - Lin had the highest +/- on the court tonight

    - Harden is as sharp as ever

    - Howard's FT are finally improving!

    - Parsons still Mr Consistant

    - Beverley is a bulldog that can produce, very appealing player

    - Casspi, not sure whats going on, heard hes the new Dirk :p

    Minus the fourth quarter, DMo had the best +/- of any Rocket. For some people, individual stats matter more than team play.

    Don't worry, the Pelicans are just lucky.

    It's clear we are the better team by 1000x.

    Win or loss overall it was a good game
    Nothing is set in stone.
    Still a high scoring game

    Positives
    Casspi wow
    Dwight looked very good. Much quicker and explosive then last season
    Harden our best player and MVP candidate
    Bev was incredible on defense on Holiday.
    Jones is the starting PF
    Lin looked good for the most part
