    We can't forget that that the 3rd best scorer in the NBA is out of the game for us. I'm sure that has something to do with our struggles scoring.

    I feel like Lin actually has an easier time defending against shooting guards. He's pretty strong and he doesn't struggle quite as much getting blown by against them.

    Starting to get more sold on the Lin as 6th man thing. As long as he gets at least 24 minutes per game.

    Geez, I just came on here and it sounds like the Rockets are down by 20 by some of these posts. What is up with some of you?

    Asik and Dwight inside against big Lineups is going to be amazing... I wonder what Morey is going to do with Asik; I'm liking the D against Zbo and Gasol.

    Asik is still playing catch up with his timing and conditioning. I love his defense.

    We are shooting 2/13 3PT% and leading by 19 so far. The opponent has made only 5 field goals on 16% for almost the entire half...

    Garcia is a G! Definitely meant something with that foul on Gasol.

    I don't know...

    I think if they are playing great and Asik is happy then why trade him? How many teams can claim to have two of the best centers in the NBA? How many teams can match up with that?

    If the Rockets are like a top 3 team in the west at the deadline I see no reason to trade Asik. Not for a stretch 4 like Anderson because it seems Cassipi may be able to do that just fine.
