    Lin just needs not to gamble too much on the steal as he did earlier in the 2nd quarter and not over help on the defense. He stayed close to his men last night and tonight and was aware of the pick.

    what a breath taking game. We don't win this without the wolf man, demo.
    and for those whining about the turnover, transition missed three and biting on the steal on lin's part in the first half, then you should crown him for the combo block on eddie winslow, two threes and the assist to demo sequence. that's why he needs to be there in the fourth because he is capable of doing this. 11 out of his 17 healthy starts, he has outscored his matchup.

    Harden was amazing, hitting two long mtv jock jam shots for for his 26 points. He had some clutch plays on defense in the fourth too. Loved how he frustrated eddie. =)

    Dwight, even when hindered by zebras, was all out celebrating like he does with 80 year old chics.

    2 in row. let's make it 22 again.

    I'm just wondering where the PB fans saying that he's a superior defensive player than Lin. Where today, Lins showed that he can neutralize top tier guards in the NBA. especially Tony Parker on X-Mas. That was really impressive.

    He's always been a solid rebounder. There was probably more boards for the taking tonight with Dwight on the bench.

    Great might be a bit strong, but Donatas definitely came in and made a positive impact, something he desperately needed to do in order to stop being glued to the bench, and something we needed to pull out the win. His defense, putting aside a silly foul here and there, helped tremendously, and you don't know how strange it feels to type that. It's been his Achilles heel.

    Way to go, Donuts! I expect a dozen donuts from Round Rock in the morning. ;-)-

    He meant the season average. He's 78% thus far, which could have been higher since he's got a good form.

    exactly. his shot wasn't falling so he took the ball to the basket. as long as the refs were going to call fouls and he was going to shoot free throws, there's no need to change tactics. plus he was still able to garner attention which left lin and Garcia open for threes. that's the kind of play we need from harden.

    When i mean consistent i mean not playing like a headless chicken on offense. I never thought of lin as a bad defender so im not surprised hes doing good on that end. its just that he has some stretches on offense where he looks like a d-leaguer.

    That sounds almost as crazy as going 27 points on 2 shots.

    I read so many comments about thanking the Refs tonight. To be honest, they did help a lot in this game. I will take it anyway. thanks.

    Great job by Harden. Finding a way to get it done and not forcing shots. To go 2-9 and still have a great offensive game is amazing. Great job by TJ for keeping them in it.
