That's the 1st time I've seen that move work for Lin.
I hope Lin told him "Don't bite rookie" in uncle drew voice.

Tough back-to-back game tonight. The Nuggets are getting a tough test as well, trying to modify their lineup after losing a key player to a horrible injury.

I hope that the Rockets don't rush Parsons back if he isn't ready, but I get the feeling they may have left him out last night so that he'd be available tonight. Maybe he plays fewer minutes seeing as how Garcia is showing that he can step up in a key role when needed.

The game plan will be "stop Fareid." Smith, Motie, and Jones have to step up tonight.

Dunleavy Jr. are you finally coming out of the closet as a Rockets fan?

Denver favored by 5.5 even without Gallinari and Lawson. This will be a tough game to win at Denver. But if we distribute the ball and play a team game, we can prevent the season sweep. Go Rockets!

I missed the Blazers game, I took my son to the Zoo. But I'll be watching this Nuggets game. We gotta keep Rolling. Those Damn Lakers are snapping at our heels, as much as we are snapping at Golden States. And we all know the league is rigged to favour the Lakers.

UGH, Denver commentators.

No Parsons and Delfino today. Rockets got to Denver at 4am last night, and the thin air, going to be tough tonight.

Nice little run by Houston!

TJones sighting!

TJ for 3!

Lin hit the floor. Drink!

Nice efforts on Defense so far.

Our defense has been surprisingly unterrible during this mini-streak.

Also JONES YES

terrence is a goddamn juggernaut

The Denver announcers and fans always complain about how many times the Rockets go to the line, but they cannot argue that there are not fouls being committed.

These are actual fouls. Yeah, Harden knows how to draw contact with the best of them, but it's not like the refs are making phantom calls.

I always groan when I hear about our defense. Yes, it's bad, but the main reason we give up so many PPG is because of our quick pace.

lol what a block follow by a facial and one!!!
