    Agreed but he didn't blow the lead. This team continues to lose leads because can't defend in the clutch.

    How Ironic that these are the two players that are getting shafted by Mchale. Asik has been nothing but a workhorse ever since he got here. He was a HUGE part of the teams success last season. And now hes getting hated on because hes not happy (rightfully so) with the way he being treated. Lin has been on of the best players this season. It's ONE game. All you people just look for people to blame when you're angry.

    Dmo should've gotten some burn when the bench could not get any scoring done. McHale is so stupid.

    Lin is 0-5, has 1 pt and 4 assists in 16 mins of play. If I was assigning the blame I'd put the biggest one on him, at least Harden kept us in the game.

    Anyway can we stop about the stretch 4 need already? We don't need a ****ing stretch 4 anymore, we need a better defender, somebody who can put the clamps on the opponent guard while still scoring at a respectable rate. We always get killed by these Sgs, Ellis, Reddick, Courtney Lee etc. I'm fine living with Harden's horrible D but we need a lockdown defender to complement his game. Parsons started out as that guy but now his game is more of a point forward role, Bev's ok as a defender but when he sits we start losing games due to the horrible D.

    Everyone needs to practice on closing out to three point shooters. We suck at this.

    Hey McHale! It's called a ZONE DEFENSE. Instead of making witty after dinner remarks how about you go out and get a book on basketball fundamentals you stupid jackass!

    Harden needs to start shooting the ball without flopping his damn head. He had a better chance making it, if he just shot it normally. STOP RELYING ON THE DAMN REFS JAMES.

    the sad part is, hard to pin this game on Lin, true rocket fans desperate need a scapegoat.

    So that erases almost a decade of history with him?

    He's a crap player who's on a hot streak. Get over your Monta love. He's a trash player who is only fit to come off the bench on a contending team. Any time where he's a starter is automatically not a title contender, IMO.

    Epic choke job. I think the Mavs scored on every possession in the fourth quarter. They had to have shot near 100%. Wasted an All Star game by Howard. He even made most of his free throws. This is a Houston Rockets team specialty, especially any where near Dallas. I feel like I have seen this a 100 times going back over several decades.

    Chandler is about the ONLY person a 3-pt play should have been drawn for. Un****ingthinkable.
