    Guys TT are already playing together the minimum # of minutes possible unless you want Asik to only play 14min a game -- they just happen to be at the start of the game.

    If our starters can keep the pace low and play good defense and keep it close, then the bench can some in and blow out the opponents bench with a high pace. Right now the starters are not working on defense either though.

    He basically said something wasn't as hard as Japanese Algebra. He was just trying to be funny... but he failed. miserably.

    For as good as the Rox are playing I feel like they should be up by more than 9

    Howard is playing like a beast. Lin is being aggressive! Harden is playing facilitator. Can we start with Casspi at the four in the second half?

    Harden's 1 on 1 D is pretty bad, but I think his help D is even worse.

    He said that it is amazing how good defense can be when you put in effort. Said that defense is not difficult, it just takes effort (said it is not "Japanese Algebra"). LOL.

    Praised Beverley and Lin in terms of defense. Said Redick is still hitting shots, but at least the shots are contested today.

    Clearly, Morey has been teaching the Rockets coaching staff Japanese algebra. I knew there was some strange Eastern mathematics going on. Look at that 1st half run. You can't explain that with Texan algebra.

    Lin seems to be scoring at will. Dude just blew by CP3. Just like that.

    Harden is pacing himself well most of time so far, and making better effort on the defense. Good to see.

    Lin, Bev and Howard playing great. If Harden is hurt he should stop playing and get healthy.

    Harden's got some injuries

    All you critics need to STFU because when push comes to shove, he's put this team on his back way more times than I can count.

    We should be supportive of everyone - good and bad times!

    When Harden is back to 100% and everyone else is at 100% -- everything will come together!

    CP3 is in foul trouble. They should really attack him more.
