    Yep, so true, but at least we can watch harden.

    Let's hire much improved shooter Kyle Lowry as Lin's shooting coach. Kyle isn't doing anything in Toronto anyway, has free time.

    Douglas is inefficient when he's trying to create off the dribble. But he plays scrappy D, brings good energy as you say, and he's a great floor spacer when paired next to Harden because people have to respect his shot. I thought he played his role tonight pretty well. Other than maybe Parsons who's looked off of late, the whole team played well.

    Parsons played good D on Gay though, to hold him to only 6 points.

    I think January will give this team a chance to learn to win on the road.

    Parsons and D-Mo seem to have the same work-out coach. They both need to start bulking up. Skinny arms. Smith looks like a beast! He and Morris are a good team. With Morris' shooting, there's no need to bring back No-Box-Out-No-Rebound Patterson.

    Took the Grizzlies apart. Was pretty fun to watch them dismantle a great defense. Harden owned Tony Allen.

    Grizzlies were forced to switch on Harden so Allen wasn't covering Harden all the time.

    i think being skinny and not add on extra weight can extend a player's basketball age.

    what a fun team to watch! I don't know what their ceiling is but damn they are fun. Teams like Memphis and NYK that just want to walk the ball up the court are finding out that you can not keep up with the Rockets playing that style of ball.

    I don't watch Kyle Lowry play much, Can he hit a consistent open jumper?
