oh no doubt about that

but harden also scored 25 on 50% shooting...he was awful but was also the only reason they were somewhat close.

The TEAM looked awful.. that's the bigger point. How the team performs is always the bigger point.

I think New Orleans and their length.. big point guard... Davis.. isn't a good matchup for them though and New Orleans is now looking really good.. question will be can they keep Monty Williams?

How about Delfino.. how do you think he looked tonight? Or Parsons? Heard his pretty important to their success...

Lin had a 5 by 5 in points, assists, reb, stl, and TO.

All of the Rockets' stinkers come on back to backs. McHale doesn't understand how to rest his guys when they are blowing out a team.

After watching the Hornets/Rockets game, gotta say I really don't think Houston's going anywhere with McHale as their coach unless they somehow get LeBron.

He put a small lineup out there that was obviously meant to run and score, but they could do neither. Their running game was taken away since NOLA was hitting everything and their half court offense was just... not looking like an actual offense. They really need to implement more sets. They were also outrebounded like 14-3 in the fourth before the quarter even ended. McHale should have put in Asik or Smith to set picks to make something happen, since Patterson looks like he has no idea as to how to set a screen. If not that, then to at least grab some boards. McHale has like no idea how to adjust.

Rockets couldn't get a call either. Is it just me or are the refs extremely inconsistent this year? Sometimes they'll let teams play yet other times call fouls for standing in front of someone.

9 points.

He had a sloppy game and I think his early turnovers made him get too passive in the fourth quarter which hurt the team. But still had a good game defensively with his steals matching his TOs.

That team has a TON of potential. They did a great job closing out the middle tonight while not giving up on their covers. And then BrickMason with like 18 3s out of nowhere. But Houston played terribly. Looked worn out.

Lin looked terrible.

I saw some things from LA that confirmed what I had thought they should do. They need young bodies with energy that can run and they need a lot of them. I'm dealing Gasol for the Derrick Williams package asap.
