    All the finger-pointing and hating on to individual players are unhealthy. But let me be unhealthy once: the Rockets were out-coached.

    It would be stupid for Harden to think that he does not need a facilitating, play making point guard around him to make his job easier. IMO, Lin fit with harden better, and Lin can avoid some stupid plays from Harden.

    I can't recall, looks like there were two defenders running at Parsons too, so not his fault. And I can't remember why Lin had the ball so late on the shot clock before passing it to Parsons? Somebody must have dribbled the clock down before tossing it to Lin and expected him to make a miracle play?

    They did bounce back well on Tuesday night, so I expect them to come out and play a lot better Saturday. Especially if McHale doesn't force Asik into the starting lineup again. And the Clippers are having their own problems lately, so despite their talent, they are very beatable.

    I hope Lin take the last shot.
    Harden, Beverley and Parsons 3pt shooting are off.

    Normal day for Lin...it all started with Steve Kerr putting the "karma" pill on Lin. He's got the most efficient night of all players but he has to take one from behind again because, as we all know, Houston doesn't play with a coach.

    Because the fanboys and girls like him. He and Bev have not played like starters. I'd stick with Bev because he's coming off injury that's why he cant hit a three. Parsons has no excuse for shooting so badly but who are you going to replace him with?

    Give McHale some credit, I bet he can figure out that play say in a month.

    Jordan Hill has a better hook shot than Dwight.

    Lin set himself up perfectly to be screened by not following Blake and going behind Nash and Beverley. This part is not shown by the gif.
