No Butts & Struts.

I don't care what the record says: this was a loss.

At least I hope that they see it as a loss...maybe build on this utterly pathetic performance.

why so melodramatic...it was a joy to watch an exciting game with a lot of turnarounds knowing we are going to playoffs no matter what happens...being positive and optimistic makes your life and being fan more fun...

didnt see the game , but did hear the last 4minutes of it...unbelievable they had only scored 3pts in the quarter with a little over 4 minutes left in game. almost a choke job on the level of Bills/Oilers 93'

Glad we squeaked out this win without Parsons. Dwight was a beast early on but couldn't do anything in the 4th. Harden and TJones had good 4th quarters, thought Harden played a very efficient game. Lin was solid as well, not sure why he played so many minutes 2 nights in a row. Casspi was scorching hot in the 2nd, glad to see him back. We need to pick it up with our defensive rebounding, was frustrating to see them grab so many offensive boards late in the game. Can't wait for everyone to get back healthy and for Asik to contribute again. I don't mind if Lin goes back to the bench once Bev returns but hopefully he'll get to run the 2nd unit as shown that he can do tonight.

These short-manned games are filler games as far as I'm concerned and we'll take any W we can until the 2nd half of the season where we really need to come together as a team.

howards post game is one of the things that is most fun to watch in nba...if he stays healthy hell dominate the league for us in the years to come...
cant wait for 3rd star morey get us.
.now that will be hillarious to watch...i am sure morey has a nice little plan...
btw so much easier to watch games when you know you gonna be in playoffs anyway...currently we got portland in 1st round....i like that matchup....

The 2nd quarter was their best offensive quarter in a long time led by Jeremy Lin. Finally there was ball movement and the team looked like a team. Jeremy's ability to make his team mates better was finally exploited and utilized and Jeremy finally decided to play as a point and not defer.

The issues are why did the Rockets lose the big lead and is Dwight a viable option in the 4th with his poor FT shooting. Harden had to bail out the team again with some big buckets, going to Dwight wasn't working. Lin played 43 minutes, not sustainable but Parsons is still injured. Team defense has a ways to go but there is a lot of time left in the season to work on it.

Got to see the game last night. Team looked good for 3 quarters but then Howard went into full on scrub mode in the 4th. Good lord, that was the worst I've ever seen him play. Hate to blame just one person when there's 5 people on a team, but if there ever was a case, this was it. Watching him just brick shots and just cough up the ball...made me wonder if he bet on Washington for that game.

Kevin Seraphin is the Dwight stopper. He should be starting over Booker or Gortat.
Harden is still a work-in-progress. He can score, but he can't help his teammate that much - Yao Ming
