    The problem with the Rockets is they expect to get better from handouts. Nobody is going to hand you an all-star for Kevin Martin. The only way I see them getting an all-star is through the draft, or free agency. They choose to remain competitive and put as many fans in the seats for every single game. We see where that's gotten them.

    Morey is a seeker. He seeks draft prospects and trades. He doesn't hunt for players.

    I'm so ready to eat crow. Gimme a few more games going 20+ and 8. Already love the fact that he is SO Hakeem like in humility.

    Nah he's not bitter or mad. Sounds like he gave Jeremy Lin respect without actually saying it.

    Probably felt stupid for not knowing who Jeremy Lin is.

    Perfect scenario for Lin, it was all set up perfectly especially with the Kobe trash talk and then getting destroyed right after by the very player he discredited.

    It's just respect. How can you give advice to someone who scored 38 points and is playing to his potential?

    I wonder if Ricky Rubio knows who Jeremy Lin is.

    Love the guy's humility.

    Hate how the media is trying to make it the Jeremy Lin Show.

    Wow. That's straight game recognizing game. Lin should be humbled.

    Come on man Kobe knew who Lin was before the game that's just how he is. Kobe is almost never going to say someone else is great we are going to have a tough time etc.

    Asian American J Lin just rewrote the NBA record book tonight for the highest average in 1st 3 starts since the NBA-ABA merger.
