1/26 - [Game 46] Rockets v. New Jers..erm Brooklyn 8:00 EST 

Post#1 » by TMACFORMVP » Sat Jan 26, 2013 5:16 am

Continuing the trend....we will NOT have pictures in this thread. :o

Even despite our win...

Chances for this game still don't look good.
a.) Another dreaded back to back.
b.) Nets are on a B2B, but they got rest because of getting blown out, and will be hungry versus us.
b.) Nets are 12-3 under P.J. Carlesimo. Deron is basically doing 19/9 this month. JJ has also been on fire, roughly 20 PPG this month on very good shooting. And Lopez was an AS snub, he's been VERY good this season.
c.) We won't shoot 11-21 from three. And Patterson had his once in a YEAR performance.
d.) McHale is still clueless.

Our first of two meetings v. BKN.

Run this relatively unathletic team out of the gym. Force Williams into turnovers (Lin is top 5 in spg, fwiw)

That said Asik should find Lopez a handful. He's been the Nets' best player overall.

Evans is gonna get inside Patterson's head with his nut grabbing and then Patterson is gonna get another 20/10 game. Just watch.

Haven't been around much because of work. Glad to see we took care of the Pelicans. Ummm, I hope we make Williams look stupid, and we kick some serious Brooklyn behind. I'll be watching this one.

Go Rockets!!!

the problem is that opposing players expect lin to pass, so theyre prepared. When Harden does it, opposing players don't know if he's attacking the rim or passing the ball and are thrown off guard.

What do you expect him to do when his man leaves him and contests his shot? Asik has to learn how to catch inside because he has no jumper. It's the only way he won't clog up the offense.

PPat seems to be active like he was last night tho. Good sign!

Asik bobbles Harden passes just the same. Asik just has bad hands. Harden can finish a LOT better than Lin though.

Nice start to the game. Sick assist by Harden to Smith.
