    I don't understand why these guys who are making millions of dollars aren't given a flu shot. :confused:

    I think flu shots aren't given out by how much money you make!??
    I choose not to take them cos certain vaccines have mercury, and I don't want any mercury in my system. But sorry, don't mean to digress and let's get back on topic.

    Yay Rockets!! LOL

    Understood - you can't force it on anyone. I wonder though if teams "strongly" advise they have one? I certainly would if I was paying them a fortune.

    Key to this game is clamping down on Foye and Hayward.

    When Foye heats up from 3 he will start bombing them all night long.

    Both guys have shot 54% against us in the previous 2 games and Foye is shooting 44% from beyond the arc for the season.

    Millsap and Jefferson have struggled against us, the play of Foye and Hayward will be the deciding factor.

    Jeremy Lin needs to make at least 3 TOs tonight. Its proven!

    TO Diff (Win-Loss)
    Jeremy Lin +0.8 (3.4-2.6)
    James Harden -1.1 (3.3-4.4)
    Omer Asik -1.1 (1.8-2.9)
    Chandler Parsons -0.6 (1.6-2.2)
    Marcus Morris -0.3 (0.8-1.1)

    Me too, but only because he's a lethal shooter.

    (probably a real nice guy)

    Totally agree. I am more confident in our squad than before, since Smith, PP and even Morris have shown more muscle in the last two games around the basket. And Asik and the three have started to dunk the ball rather than laying it up.

    We have been in a team-wide shooting slump during the losing streak, but I think we are regressing to the mean now. So go get them boys.

    Lin having high TOs is indicative of him handling the ball more. ;)

    This lays it out nicely in numbers. Nice job.

    Leave decision-making to Lin and the offense flows on this team.

    He turns it over more means he initiates the offense more. Every stretch of game where the Rockets coaching staff have tried to push for extended Harden initiation of Rockets offense has resulted in epic fail (something like 7-12 the first stretch, 1-8 the second stretch).

    Those stats makes perfect sense.

    Forget to mention the overall TOs of the team is almost same (-0.2: 14.3-14.5). Go figure!
