    The one where McHale put Lin in for a minute and pull him out in the 4th quarter? Unless I'm misunderstanding something.

    Casspis t role ius as an offensive spark plug in around 15 to 20 minutes. If you over play him he tends to cough up to many turnovers. He is a very good scorer and rebounder off the bench.

    naw let him come off the bench. We need weapons coming off the bench as well.

    Bev
    Garcia
    Casspi/Brewer
    DMo/Casspi
    Asik/Smith/

    i hope they all do. realistically everyone won't once the regular season pressure kicks in. Then we'll see who the real scorers are. I just hope casspi can do this same thing when it counts. I'm kind of nervous that he's getting used to the nonchalance defense teams have been playing because its preseason.

    Too sleepy for details, but --

    - Jeremy looked amazing.
    - I was 100% wrong about Casspi, and I've never been happier to be wrong.
    - SO SO SO SO SO HAPPY TO SEE CISCO BACK!!
    - Brewer's "stroke" is fug, but nice to see some offensive contribution nonetheless.
    - No D-Mo complaints today.
    - Forgot AB was even on the roster. Not good.
    - CAN WE ALL PLEAD THE BLOOD OF JESUS OVER HARDEN'S WRIST (or whatever's hurt)??? Amen.

    Night, folks.

    So the crowd can give him an ovation for a great nights work.

    most of caspi's shots were against the 3rd unit in most games still impressive.

    What a great team game and fun game to watch, Rockets are pretty much unstoppable against almost any team. Only problem is our 3 pt defense, we need a lot of work in that area... other than that we good to go.

    You misread his post. The crowd gave a standing O for Lin when McHale brought him back in at the start of the 4th AND later at the end of the game

    That 3rd quarter showed that if howard does'nt make significant impovement in his post game you can cancelled championship. The pacers slowed the game down and took the rockets right out of their game.

    It was for Lin. McHale hates him so much that he put him in the game for like one possession in the 4th just so they could applaud him. What a mean coach!

    Main take aways for this game are that our passing is looking great, we have multiple 3 point sharp shooters, and that we definitely need Asik since I can see more than a few games where Dwight gets in serious foul trouble.

    Really liked the Bev + Lin line up, gets Harden more rest and makes for a nice mix in the back court.

    Definitely thinking that Casspi played his way into a spot. Not sure who to cut now... Covington and probably has to either be Brooks or Canaan.

    Oh, and Greg Smith still fouls too much. =P

    I actually think Covington might be safe. Curtains for Williams and AB, maybe?
