    Good job Rockets! I especially the effort of Parsons and Casspi. Garcia started the push (though his ticky-tack fouls were not smart) and Parsons and Casspi continued it to victory. I enjoyed watching the team come together in the fourth quarter.

    I really don't want to trade Asik. Please, Asik. Just be content as a backup. If you play well, Morey will still give you that big contract in two years.

    Dang, it's about winning, not distributing minutes fairly. With nine minutes left we got a lead. Coach was right to keep the same guys rolling.

    As a Lin fan, I don't have problem with this one. The unit out there is winning and it's not like only Lin is on the bench but Howard and Jones also.
    I think Lin doesn't care as long as the game is won.

    Pretty happy with the game and minutes distribution. Nice to reward the bench players in the 4th quarter once they were clicking.

    Main thing I would change.... STOP FORCE FEEDING DWIGHT against good post defenders. Dwight can own smaller guys, but against strong post defenders he's a TO waiting to happen.

    Dear lord I hope someone can get Dwight to PnR more... his post up turn overs make my eyes bleed.

    Considering how badly we were bricking, it's nice to put up a win. Nice, gritty game from the Rockets all around.

    I think i'd rather the rockets be down in the fourth quarter. The team that's down always seems to be the one going on a run and trying the hardest. We saw it with the Dallas game, and this game game, it was us coming back from a huge lead.

    Asik plays perfect defense on ZBo, he does not fall for those pump fakes and go for the shot block like Dwight. That is why we had success against Memphis in the preseason when we played the TT and Asik played ZBo and Dwight played Gasol. Memphis has no real scoring threats besides those two. McHale coached a great game today in the 4th.

    To bad everytime he has done that this year all he gets is grief from the board... Talking about "why is Lin on the bench?"
