    Lin/DMO/Granger/Asik/Hamilton

    Rockets bench would be better than most starters

    Can we beat them when they have JJ Redick? Not that i don't see Harden's improvement on D, but Dude be gunning all day every day against us.

    :confused::confused:

    Unless you are expecting Paul to be shut down completely, I will take that production from him in a half every time.

    The key here is that Chris Paul has not dictated the tempo of the game so far.

    "My Bev" is not immune from criticism -- this is his 2nd subpar game in a row offensively, and I'll be the first to call that out. I don't make excuses for players I like, unlike a lot of people here. But to criticize his defense when CP3 has 4 points is silly.

    Hamilton is such a sweet trade. He's smart and got in sync so fast with this squad. He might steal some that Parsons money. Man is 6'9" in shoes just like Parsons.. Uh oh..

    I hope Asik is realising just how important he is to this team and our Playoff hopes.

    This one game of basketball tells him everything he needs to know.

    Regardless of Dwight being here. There will be minutes. And important minutes.

    People seem to really be sleeping on Mchales Decision to play D-Mo over TJ. I feel D-Mo has had a bigger impact on the game by taking Blake into the woods to meet the wolves.

    Beverley's defense on CP3 in the second half will be they key

    In all seriousness, not enough credit is being given to Omer Asik. WTF, GIVE HIM YOUR WORSHIP!

    On another note I LOVE Casspi has yet to enter the game. Just more reasons to love Hamilton

    We need Asik to be relevant in the playoffs.

    disagree there was only once Parsons was benched before this game. Parsons is one of the most consistent players on the team.

    Howard's nerves, Parson's Hangover, Harden going HAM, Dmo hitting the 3, and good D will all be key.
