    Lin shoots at a phenominal 90% when his toe is on the line. Drops down to his 3pt average as soon as he moves it an inch back. So odds are he'd miss the shot this time.

    (Of course, this would mean the team should just have him camp physically on the line and feed him the ball. An unusual strategy, but whatever works.)

    (And I can already hear the exclamations. "Crap, he moved his foot off the line again. Leads the frickin league in toe off the line misses.")

    If lin has another scrub like game then Brooks needs to be considerd to be a starter.Harden and Howard should not be carrying his ass every game.

    Fire McHale!

    Let's do this. I'm officially on board with this impeachment.

    Brooks had a worse game last night. We need Bev back in the worst way.

    Atleast Brooks can shoot and is a offensive threat.

    Both of them have been incredibly unimpressive in the last few games.

    Anyway; we have Asik/Parsons/Bev injured and our bench sucks besides AB/Casspi.

    Gonna be a rough night against another scrub team.

    Beverley, Lin or Brooks are not the answer if our final goal is a title.Williams is has been bt yu culd see why Mrey is so desperate t get a legit Point guard at this point in time. I bet Howard had a say in his chase of Williams.

    If you've been to a game, what's the first thing you see when entering the Toyota Center?

    All I want to see tonight is decent ball movement and, please, someone who can feed Dwight in the post.. He was feasting yesterday, until somehow our players forgot how to do it. Everytime Harden ISO`s and McHale decides to draw something on that board, I know something bad will happen.

    How about the turnovers , poor 3pt shooting ,and defensive lapses ? That's on the players not on coach

    Brooks was the only one hitting his 3pt shots smart one. Had he not, we wouldn't have been in the game because the way we were shooting all they had to do was clog the paint.

    Well, here's something (I guess)....

    <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p>After last night's L to ATL, Rox 0-5 on front end of road back-to-back. On other hand, HOU is 4-0 on second game of those b2bs so far.</p>&mdash; Jason Friedman (@JasonCFriedman) <a href="https://twitter.com/JasonCFriedman/statuses/422154996407230464">January 11, 2014</a></blockquote>

    The Rockets are a good bounce back team after a loss. They've also got a good record against the Wiz. However, without Parsons, this game is hard to call.
