If the standings stay like this I like the Rockets chances.

WTF does this have to do with Phil? Um......he wants Morey's job?

Phil Jackson slams Dick Bavetta for Trevor Ariza’s foul of James Harden

IMO it's definitely a foul on Ariza. If you are picked, you gotta switch, go over or go under, you can't hold on to the guy.

“He was battling to get the ball, and I was trying to stop him from getting the ball,” said Ariza.

Can't use the hands.

Thanks for the honesty.

I thought we lost this game. I was pissed at how easily we gave up the lead...but Ariza just caught on fire. I remember how much I hated Ariza his only year here...I know it's a role we kinda forced him into, but he was an inefficient chucker. And I'm really surprised by that final play...it worked out real well. 3rd seed going into the all-star break. You ask me that coming into the season, and I definitely take it.

Even when he was with the Knicks we knew he could score at will sometimes yet we couldn't wait for Ariza to get traded away with the same reason(a chucker/dismal shot selection).

While Lin is hated in the Rockets, Harden is hated in the NBA lol
* Since 1985, Jeremy Lin became one of 15 players to have scored at least 20 points, seven assists and a steal for six games in a row, including 136 points in 5 starts beating out Iverson, Jordan and O'Neal :D
