Balanced scoring for the roster and more importantly, efficient scoring. .554 FG% for the team. 50% 3ps. 80% FTs. And more than half of our FGs coming assisted.
Don't obsess over turnovers. Remember if you have 4 turnovers but 8 assists that is a good game. Assists to turnovers ratio is what you look at - not just turnovers. A 2:1 ratio assists to to's is good.
Great win, glad to be back at .500. Hopefully we can somehow win some of these next tough games. Great game by everyone except Morris. We really missed Delfino. Glad to see Lin hit some shots. Glad to see Harden not forcing so much and letting the game come to him, he played well. Asik, Smith, and Parsons were impressive. Oh and side note: I absolutely HATED the **** out of Matt Harpring as a player, but he isn't so bad as an announcer, lol.
The Juiceman is about to blow up from Fresno State, not to brag but I was one of the first to recognize the skill....
the Game Turned Twice: First when Asik went out with the injury...the Jlzz came back from down 10. Second, when Asik came back, had the monster block, 3 point play, and strong D down low. The Gobbler! what what!
YOU SAID IT!!! PPL need to learn as I think HArden did tonight, that the refs are letting these guys play this year, he's not going to get the calls he got last year, and that only encourages the double team from the opponents. Therefore, Harden needs to trust his teammates. Sampson needs to trust his teammates. This is a grind it out game that hopefully will go a long way in teaching everyone an important lesson moving forwards.
Delfino's playmaking off the bench is what keeps our 2nd unit alive. Smith owes a lot to Delfino today. That way TD isn't burdened w/ having to use his pea-brain.
Quote from BR re the last few minutes.... Omerzing defense and Linsane offense has the Rockets looking a loss full in the face and saying, "Not today."
