    So can we give Lin the Bev treatment and make broad conclusions about Lin starting off with 10 minutes in the 1st quarter tonight?

    Harden and Howard or stagnant players. They slow the game and make it what you saw in the first quarter.

    Speaking of Houston’s dynamic duo, During the 63 minutes Howard and Harden have played together so far this season (prior to tonight’s game), Houston's offensive efficiency rating (points per 100 possessions) is 112.0 while its defensive efficiency rating is 91.9. The Rockets are +18 during that time. Dominant.

    Lin played well for the most part but also made some bad plays. He's a boom or bust type of player...great for the spark off the bench but the starters need consistency.

    Are you talking about the guy who got 26 rebounds in the first game, and the one who scored 34 points last night?

    what is the correlation between that and a player being stagnant?

    blahblah ...

    There are other players doing some dumb mistakes but let's pick Lin who is the second best scorer in this team with high FG%. :rolleyes:

    Really, these LOH need to take a rest.

    Im excited for what this team might bring this year. Strong start of the season is encouraging me as well. However, I don't want to pump myself up like I did when Steve Francis returned (with TMac and Yao). Thought that Rockets had it all figured out that year until injuries started.

    I think it was the Utah altitude and the B2B. It affected everyone in the first quarter except Parsons. When Harden catches fire he's unstoppable!

    Tinsley and Caleron (last night) both 0 pts.

    So stop saying Lin is terrible defender.
