was surprised to see TJones put in the game in 2nd Q. think it shows coaching staff has started having doubts about whether DMo and TRob (both of whose potential is very high) are ready for prime time this year in the playoffs. both have looked awkward and lost at times out there in last few games. TJones was given a chance (finally!), and he knocked it out of the park. So proud of him for hanging tough through this whole season. would love it if he got the chance to play Friday in Portland, his hometown. Last few games have shown that players 1-12 on the roster are ready to play. Pretty amazing. Go Rockets!
Yeah, McHale out-coached the opposition tonight. That was some professional grade Smart coaching there icing Evans and Cousins in favor of their ROY candidate wannabe PG sensation for 35:26 on 3-for-16 shooting and Salmons for 38:38 on 0-4 shooting and 0 point.
Wow, Tyreke Evans, the "Point Guard" for the Kings, had 0 assists in 29 minutes. He did however manage to jack up 18 shots, the most on the team. Nice work.
It seems Jeremy is happy for TJones. If anybody, Jeremy would know how it feels. <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p>On more serious note, Lin on TJ's performance: "So happy for guys like that who spend months and months and months waiting their turn."</p>— Jason Friedman (@JasonCFriedman) <a href="https://twitter.com/JasonCFriedman/status/319672024454807552">April 4, 2013</a></blockquote> <script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
I wanna devise a virus to bring dire straits to your environment. Crush your corporations with a mild touch, trash your whole computer system and revert you to papyrus.
Yeah, a SG with a higher basketball IQ would have stopped passing to Isaiah Thomas and John Salmons after the first ten tries.
One might think the Kings are trying to bolster their lottery position, what with a move and **** happening.
You better out-coach, probably the worst coach in the league, or it doesn't say much about you.:grin:
Everybody play well in this game: Lin play great D on Isiah...shoot great, passing to open man....Asik getting dunks all game long Parsons ...Tjones ...Harden...Asik everyone is contributing to significant degree
It's the team culture. I think if we had a pg who didn't have the strong personality that JLin has, I think we would be the same. Harden is a good player but his tendency is to play isolation and get his numbers. The whole team might play like that except Lin seems to keep the offense in line.
Rockets won, but played pretty sloppy tonight...to many TOs. It got to close at the end. However, that Lin 3 pointer and the following Asik 2+1 essentially sealed the game. Both Lin and Asik have been very solid the last three games.
