    I don't understand why Harden and Lin play like this every game, great defense and sharing the ball

    Lin is a capable defender and this game shows it.

    Best defensive game by Lin...Harden has tried on D today...Howard is beast as always and Jones and Parsons have been great. THIS is the Rockets that can win championships. Iso Harden when hes hot, lots of ball movement, tough D and fast breaks, and good chemistry.

    Sorry but I have a problem with people who shoots down every criticism with the LOF label.

    All the starters pulling their weight tonight. Impressive showing. If we had a bench ...

    Ridgemont High.

    I'm not sure how bad that thigh injury is but one of the main Rocket writers said it was badly badly badly swollen not too long ago. We really could use him coming off the bench. Sadly, he thinks it's beneath him. And while it's true that he might be a starter on many teams, he's not on this one. And here I am having deja vu all over again.

    Only difference is sometimes Harden doesn't hit those shots and he forces them. That's what makes it ugly. Harden hitting shots = willing to pass

    this team has lost about 5-6 games to teams they shouldnt have lost to.. i think thats the difference between the spurs and rockets, the spurs are a vet team that knows how to handle teams they are better than and their record shows it.. the rockets are just better than the spurs but sometimes lack focus..

    too bad the rockets don't play like this consistently.

    they'll go back to the same ole habits again.

    I still think the Spurs are a great team and up there with OKC as above everyone else in West but the Rox are a horrible match up for them.

    thats a good point. I hope Harden and the coaches see this game and encourage this type of play with Harden and Lin.
