    I remember after the Dallas game asking why they didn't using DMO's length on guarding Dirk... well look what happened?

    Honestly Rockets should be top 4 seed right about now. If Asik wasn't being a diva and we actually hit some 3's. Plus that twin tower line up hurt alot.

    Hopefully Jeremy has turned the corner. He's normally terrible in the 2nd game of a back to back.

    Awesome game tonight! What an emotional roller coaster. This is why I love watching basketball.

    Rockets will revert when Harden returns.

    Oh yeah... how could I forget that one.

    Nash had his arms wrapped around Lin to stop him guarding Blake
    and Blake scored the game winner.

    Arrggghhhh!!!

    Thanks...I WANT the guy to succeed. The team really needs the guy to make it. Maybe this was the jumpstart he needed. Hope so.

    monta was not guarding him when Lin made those points... Calderon was on Lin. BTW: Lin did a fantastic job tonight on defense. Really liked his effort. Ellis disappeared tonight.

    McHale needs to have a 10 man roster.

    He's burning the guys out the way he is going about it right now.

    Jeremy as a starter has quote the W/L, dunno maybe we should go back to that. We could use his solid defense there as well leaving Bev more energy/ability to play high risk/foul-prone D with the second unit. Jeremy doesn't seem to play well off he bench and while I like Bevs attitude and think it contributes well to the team setting the tone, but at the very least I'd love to see jeremy closing games. He's got that "clutch" gene perhaps even moreso than Harden.

    This was great. Beating Dallas in Dallas and giving Harden some extra rest before our next game against the Cavs. Great game.

    Thanks to DH and CP2.5, Lin actually was resting himself most of the first quarter...

    Every one can see that Lin did not get the treatment of a starter until last quarter!Most time.he was around corner, and was the last choice.

    DMO and Bev's lack of experience almost cost us the game. Tonight 'a Bev has shown his inexperience but he will improve!

    Awesome win. Much closer than it should have been. We had a really good shooting night. Parsons and Lin played very well. That was All-Star material from Chandler. He did everything right. The refs were complete BS tonight. Especially the last backcourt violation, which had been tipped by Wright prior...Glad we beat them insufferable Mavericks. I hope they will enjoy their 0-4 sweep at the hands of OKC in the 1st round.

    Nice
    _______

    Dwight had another crap game. He made his hack FTs so credit that, but was neutralized on the boards He needs to be more selective with his block attempts. We surrender too many 2nd chance points due to offensive rebs after the paint is left open.
