    Howard with 32 and 17.

    Only lost by 7 to the Blazers in their house.

    Not bad.

    he played great tonight, but sometimes when one player does all the work other players can get out of rhythm, see Kobe last year & melo this year

    I can't wait for us to package Asik + whoever for something significant. Watching the bench blow sucks. Thought we had a deep bench going into the season. And Sampson proved why he didn't get a starting gig

    Given how little the bench actually played, they didn't cost us anything.

    This team is terrible when it comes to pick and roll defense. Probably the worst in the league. It's so easy for opponents to get open...all they have to do is....DO PICK n ROLL. No wonder Lin didn't get any minute cuz nobody play pick n roll defense.

    Its not the fact that lin or bev or starters, its the fact that we're paying bev 800k and lin 8 million. Bev is playing well into what we're paying. We're getting robbed for lin.

    The Rockets lost because of the bench.

    He could be a starter, but not on this team. No point paying him 15 mill next season for being a backup. Better to trade for a starting quality PG who will actually start.

    Bev is most effective on the bench with his hustle D. He can't cut it as a starter, just not good enough. He's had lots of opportunity to prove otherwise.

    I would kill to trade Dwight for LaMarcus Aldridge.

    Him and Asik would be a badass duo

    This loss hurt more than the others, for some reason. We had an important, winnable game that would have increased our credibility by a mile...and we blow it. Oh well. Live and learn.
