    Meanwhile Aaron Brooks has 16 points (4-7 from three) and is making vet minimum salary. (Terry is making 5.8M and Prigs is about 1.7M) :( :(

    Really wish Morey would have brought Brooks back for Part IV.

    needs to be said: team was REALLY out of sync in the beginning of the game, down 17 points at one time...seems like they forced some passes into Dwight and Terry wasn't taking charge.

    McHale did a really good job with adjustments, got the Harden-DMO pick and roll going, switched Ariza (and Harden at one point! lol) on Davis and had them play tough defense. Good in-game adjustments made.

    How did Dwight look so far?? Seems like he was very active, despite only 8mins of game time?

    And the good sign is when the Rockets were down by 17, they did not just jack up 3s after 3s, but instead clam down and playing with confidence.

    Credit to McHale.

    The Rockets really upped their intensity in the second quarter. The question is can they maintain that intensity for the rest of the game?

    Looks good at limited minutes, did not force things on O and active on D.

    His moves looked very strong.

    The team didn't quite know what to do with him though. This probably isn't the best game for them to figure it out either.

    Because we had Bev and Lin.

    Pretty sure Brooks would have played a lot this season if it was only Bev.

    Evans missed something.

    I think we've got this now.
