Another game the Rockets should win easily but likely let them stay in the game throughout. Bury them by the 4th and rest

Thanks for the update.

It's worrisome the way Bev plays, I hope he doesn't become real injury prone. Actually it's true with all three of our main guards. Lin coming off the bench might be a blessing in disguise!

Bev can't catch a break. Isn't this the same abdominal injury from the start of the season?

I don't get what do you mean how Bev play? He play good defense but he doesn't drive, so change of he getting a good injury is a lot less than Harden and Lin.

I'm talking about his all-out, sometimes out of control, hustle.

Yea, we sure gonna miss Bev's hustle.
As long as Harden puts out some effort on defensive end -n- not play selfish offense.
We are gonna win convincingly.

Stage is set: Lin vs Wall 3.0???

Came out of college the same year, in 2010, one drafted no.1, the other undrafted.

In a summer league game that year: (1.0)
Lin outplayed first overall pick John Wall; He scored 13 points to Wall's 21, but did so on 6-for-12 shooting in 28 minutes. Wall was 4-for-19 in 33 minutes. While Wall received the biggest cheer for any player during introductions, the crowd turned on Wall and was cheering for Lin by the end of the game.(wiki)


During Linsanity in 2012: (2.0)
In a 107–93 win over the Washington Wizards, Lin played against John Wall and had 23 points and 10 assists, his first double-double.

With this spectacular move:

Wall is having a great year while Lin is having a great stretch recently; gonna be real interesting. :eyebrows: :basketball:

Glad to see Harden, moving away from the Wiz's weak side and passing it to Lin to dish out to Howard.
