Game is winnable, Houston isn't as good as their record indicates. Going to have keep Harden off the free throw line to make it happen.

He's overrated as hell, a product of NBA ref, flop and bail out by the ref all the time, he's also one of the worst defender in the league

espn ranked him at 9 before the season, hes one of the worst players to watch imo. other than his ability to extend his arms and draw fouls on his drives..take that away from his game hes a 16ppg. draw fouls like a normal player dam lol. its that much more annoying when hes playing vs your team.

Rockets: on a high winning a lot of easy games even tho roster is depleted(cuz of Bosh), and just lost.

Lakers: very low, losing a lot of games, and just won.

Would be interesting what the morale of these two teams will be like.


Can Lin redeem himself the first game back in Houston? Played pretty well tonight by most standard, can he keep the swag up?

Who's gonna be guarding Dwight? Hill? Or Davis?

Gotta guard their three point shooting better and not having to double Dwight.

Wes needs to step up... **** Wes have at least one good game.

Lin - would be nice to win the game on a buzzer beater over Howard of course, much like Blake;)

Lakers win 110 - 107

Harden gets to the FT line at least 16 times, no one can stop him from flopping to the line.

It's usually Harden going nuts and Dwight getting more than he looks like he is when they take it to us. And you're correct- we lack a proper big C defensively...Imagine how much better you'd feel with Hibbert/Hill, Davis/Randle vs anything mentioning Boozer or Sacre.

The key will be not letting Ariza, Beverly, and T. Jones go off on us like they did before.
I actually think we did a good job on Harden and Softy.
It was the others that hurt us the most.

Let's go Lakers!!!

I think Harden went off early. Softy was stupid enough to get into foul trouble. But yeah, we need to do a better job on the other 3 you mentioned.
