10/16 PRESEASON GAME 4: Rockets vs Magic Game Thread

Big QUESTIONS tonight
1. Who will start at PG?
McHale says in his interview Lin and Beverley will alternate start, so i believe Beverley will start in this one
2. Who will start at PF?
It seems like whoever start at PF will be the worst PF for the rest of the game. Is it time for McHale start Casspi at PF? I think McHale should start Smith, to get a preview of two big men on the floor at the same time
3. Will Asik play tonight?
McHale says in his interview Asik will not play tonight and hope he can play next week

Beverley is starting. Lin is NOT playing. He's feeling sick.
Parsons is also NOT playing. Garcia will get the start.
Casspi WILL start at the 4.
I unfortunately will likely have to miss this game...b/c of class. I'll have the game recorded though.
I don't think Asik is playing. I really kinda wonder what the severity of this injury is...

Actually looking forward to this game, lots of playing time to go around for the PGs and SFs.

I think Garcia is our best spot up 3pt shooter.
Garcia
Harden
Parsons
Casspi
in that order?

I love the Espn iPhone updates I had no idea rockets had a game today
Terrible pass to Dwight....we HAVE TO WORK OK PASSES TO d-12...guess after a year not passing to Asik makes people forget entry passes?

Wow Dwight playing so lazy. He's letting guys get inside position on him. Not boxing out. He's not hustling to get rebound. Come on...

Startin to like Lin a lot especially because of his doubters but can we please start bev and make Lin 6moty?
Lin/Garcia/casspi/insert name here/Asik would be great
