    I hate it when the Rockets get big leads and then let teams get back in the game. Turnovers and poor concentration.

    the second half is really boring and both teams playing bad. Just hoping the rockets can get the win, we are really lucky that the pistons didnt make their shots

    The Rockets stopped pushing the ball. That's why they give up leads. They start playing slow and lackadaisical and let other teams back into it.

    They need to increase the intensity and push the ball.

    agree, at this point we won't go far in playoffs without a reliable bench. not sure what happened to lin all of sudden... i truly believe he has 2 personalities....i can play basketball the other one doesn't have a clue

    Jones is redeeming himself in this game.

    Lin should have been doing the same.

    Rockets have clearly been beaten in the second half. Does note bode well for the next game vs the heat

    Time to start a Lin double digit watch. For a guy who was averaging
    double digits, I look at him now an think he might not break 10 the rest
    of the season. Very confusing.

    Beverly is not good enough to do it alone. The Rockets *have* to get something out of Lin.

    Nice research. Crazy that only one 4th seed has won the title and zero 5th seeds

    Well when you're only taking 6 shots a game max, being some "6 man" but really losing his starting position only because the "stars" need their shots and crucified if you make a few mistakes then I think he's not going to do very well in this situation. He's never been good playing 3rd quarters generally speaking, I mean statistically Lin's been Mr 4th Quarter clutch even during linsanity. I remember yelling at the tv at how he sucked 3rd quarter, but then 4th quarter he would redeem himself. This Lin is just going back to how he feels, not caring and just doing what he wants to do in the short time span he has. I think Lin was hearing all these trade rumors and being told he's wanted to be removed with Asik but no one wanted his poison pill contract so maybe Lin just realizes he should just play however he feels and let Beverly go all out.

    I'm sure It's the same feeling like having your job taken by some inferior newbie that has more energy and does more for less play, but they keep you around to train him for the position until they can fire you.
