    Yeah. Very happy that at least from the box score, Lin has came through at the right time.

    Also looks like our defense is coming through. 48 points to the 6th best offense in the regular season in a half is excellent.

    Edit: BTW, I HATE TNT. Why is it that things always go wrong on TNT? We really should've asked for ESPN instead. And I'd also get to hear some JVG possibly.

    The more I've seen Howard this year, the more I realize he is not that skilled. You have to have a certain level of skill to score at a prolific pace in this league (25+ points). Howard has been blessed with athleticism which has been his bread and butter, but he will never be a 25+ average scoring, he just doesn't have the skill set. He does need to play better than he did in first half though.

    it was as perfect of a half as portland could ask for.

    they got all the calls, H&H sucked, LMA is killing it... and they're still losing.

    when the rockets get it together they're in trouble.

    McHale:
    takes out parsons at the peak of his hot streak
    takes out lin and garcia...and we lose out 11 pt lead.
    LIN +13 Garcia +9 (rest of players are negative)

    screw a timed or set rotation...and play the hot hand..this coaching staff is so frustrating.

    He did it twice. He has four rings. Try again. What's that matter anyway?

    I freaking love Shaq. Three hooks and one free throw. Get it done Dwight, Shaq doesn't hate you anymore

    It's more likely they'll reverse it in the 2nd half. The league is sketchy like that. Unless you're playing the Lakers and it's a game 7 with Joey reffing, in which case you'd be right.

    I am glad we've stayed classy so far. But if it continues, all is fair game.

    I think this moment calls for some mustard and red uniforms. Hell, at this point I'll even take some flying dildo if it results in some playoff wins.

    The reason Rox is not getting calls is Harden not driving to rim as usual.
