Didn't see the game thread, and the game starts in roughly 2 hours. Not quite up to last game standards..


PG - Jeremy Lin
SG - James Harden
SF - Chandler Parsons
PF - Patrick Patterson
Cc - Omer Asik
KEY BENCH PLAYER

SF/SG - Carlos Delfino


PG - Jeff Teague
SG - Lou Williams
SF - Kyle Korver
PF - Josh Smith
Cc - Al Horford
KEY BENCH PLAYERS

PG - Devin Harris
SG/SF - Anthony Morrow
NOTES
- Looks like Patterson is playing. Not sure of Greg Smith.
- Let's hope Morris doesn't play, and Douglas...well um..
- Hawks have got ridiculous shooting; wouldn't be surprised to see Stevenson play a bunch too, defending Harden.
- If we turn the ball over like we did against Detroit, we'll get blown out.
And the obligatory...
GO ROCKETS!

from an interview perspective, it's hard to not like Kevin McHale. It's refreshing to see someone who is not so, droll, (Popovich) when it comes to interviews. I do not envy him, (nor any other coach in the league) for the job that they do. You play someone, (Morris) and it's questioned as much as not playing someone (Moju/Jones.)
Unless you are generally a top 5 pick, as a Rookie, you are not going to see a lot of playing time, or it is going to be sporadic/situational. Obviously there are exceptions to this rule, (Parsons for example.) We'll see Jones, Moju and White. It will just take a bit of time. We're one game deep, practically a new team, and we're young. no need for panic stations yet.

Asik with 4 boards already. Parsons has to drain those open 3's.
Hitting Harden, well, hard to begin with.

The only reason we're in this game is because we're controlling the boards. Way too many isos by Harden and Lin and not enough ball movement.

Harden is a monster. Marcus Morris looks sloppy. What's the deal with Motiejunas? Rox playing pretty well nevertheless.
