    Everyone is going to talk about Lin's outstanding defense on Parker and they should. Its no easy task containing Parker.

    But what I liked the best about Ln's game tonight is that he played UNDER CONTROL.

    NO TURNOVERS. Made good plays on offense.

    No one worth their salt has doubted whether Lin is "capable" defensively. The issue with Lin has been decision making defensively.

    Honestly... Lin, Harden, Beverly and Parsons all physically are capable of being positive players defensively, it comes down to continuity and decision making skills.

    In a few years he is going to be a force. It usually takes bigs a bit of time to work things out in the league but he certainly has the tools and skillset to be damned good when the game slows down for him finally. I'm looking forward to it and hope he is a Rocket when it happens.

    I hate Lin fans so much but if he can play like this on a more consistent basis ill take the absurd LOF posts.

    awesome, all we have to do is make sure we get the spurs in the first round and were guaranteed to get to the 2nd round!

    Yep.

    We will see if they are the same ole Rockets tomorrow night. Another big win will they then follow it up with a let down against a inferior team?
