    McHale didn`t take Lin out because of his turnovers. It was just a normal substitution. Plus AB (at least on paper) is the better 3pt shooter what helps against the zone (against which the Lin run team had troubles).

    Again, it is not everything about Lin...

    Nope, we did it to ourselves. Stopped driving and started bricking 3's.

    Good 1st half, their zone confused rockets a little but over still good half. Harden balling, NO STICKY BALL! THANK YOU HARDEN!

    Houston needs to stop gambling as much. It's great to have Asik or Howard to correct mistakes but shouldn't be gambling 10 feet within the basket. And we need to run more! Before the zone sets up!

    Well we'll probably get some good practice time against the zone in the 2nd half. Better learn to shoot when open.

    Everyone is playing at high level. No need to bickering among ourselves. No one plays perfect game. But we are doing way more good than bad. So let's enjoy and hope we continue with pace we started this game with at second half.

    It was a flagrant. Not a flagrant 2 though.

    Also good call of mchale for taking lin out when he did. Lin was slacking a bit in defense(probably tired from pushing the pace). he should have put him back in before the half though.

    Just goes to show that mchale is still a terrible coach.

    I know, just maybe the counter would be better than what I just saw.

    If Parsons can guard Dirk, I'll forget all his traveling calls out on the perimeter. Can he just focus on defense for now?

    They need to hit some threes to bust that zone

    McHale has got to react faster in-game. Carlisle was ranked the second best in-game coach in the league. Mavs went zone defense, and rockets could do nothing but shooting threes. Why not let Dwight post up? McHale, you still have a lot to learn.

    it was a dangerous foul, thats the definition of a flagrant 1 foul.

    They sure are. This crew sucks.

    It would be nice if arguing about what Jeremy is or is not doing could wait until after the game. Good grief, it gets beyond tiresome.
