  2. Game is on NBA TV. Ernie, Isiah, Smith and C. Webb are on the telecast. Going to be interesting who are the announcers who will be calling the game. Is it going to be Bill Worrell and Clyde Drexler? Go Rockets!!!

  5. Another dose of Linsanity will make my night. LOHs going to get punked again

  6. Harden with the first TO and Lin with a steal, but missed the lay up.

    ReplyDelete
  7. Lin with his first two with the scoop lay up. Harden looked hurt after getting kicked by Scola.

    ReplyDelete
  8. No Parsons tonight ladies and gentlemen. Francisco filling in for him with a pretty pass to Asik who could not finish but got a foul instead.

    ReplyDelete
  9. Lin with a pretty assist pass to Harden. Back door pass to Harden for the slam. Lin picked up his first blocking foul on Dragic.

    ReplyDelete
  10. That slam by smith, does that count as harden's assist or an airball?

    ReplyDelete
  11. Jeremy not shooting well tonight. So far he has missed on a 2 pointer and a 3 pointer. Looks like his shot is a little too strong.

    ReplyDelete

    1. Yeah, too much spring in his legs. Shots are long today.

  12. Harden has active hands tonight. So far he has one steal and the assist to Lin for the layup attempt.

    ReplyDelete
  13. The nba tv announcers sound very impressed by beardsanity.Hopefully, this continues until the end of the game..

    ReplyDelete
  14. Harden turning it over again with his careless pass. He had Garcia on the wing and did not pass to him early.

    ReplyDelete
  15. Beverly will come in for Lin with 3:25 left in the 1st quarter. Bev attempt first 3 point shot and missed.

    ReplyDelete
  16. Is that confidence or what? Your First shot off the bench is a 3 pointer? What is beverly thinking?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. As a bench player, he has nothing to lose. He's going to keep gunning because Lin is the most polarizing player on the Rockets.

      Delete
  17. Cisco seems to be playing well tonight. Good chemistry with Lin and Beverly instead of with Harden IMO.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Rockets announcers still trying to get Houstoners to get CSN. Isn't it a little too late to get CSN now since bball is almost in playoff mode?

    ReplyDelete
  19. Bev knows he can do whatever without getting yanked like lin... no for real i think or at least hope lin and bev will start the 2nd quater and blow these lame suns out

    ReplyDelete
  20. It's harden time and harden team.... No team game..

    ReplyDelete
  21. Interesting development. Harden got the ball with a couple of seconds left in the 1st quarter and instead of taking the shot himself passed to T-Jone who was clearly 3 ft pass the 3 point line at the top of the arc. T-Jones almost banked it in.

    ReplyDelete
  22. if mchell doesnt play lin and bev now hes oficially retarded

    ReplyDelete
  23. Lin's shooting looks atrocious thus far.

    ReplyDelete
  24. btw lin allways needs to warm up on shooting becuz he looks to get teammates involved first. only matters that he shoots good in crunchtime

    ReplyDelete
  25. Lin and Bev combo for the 3rd game in a row to start the 2nd quarter. I guess this is the rotation that McFail likes atm.

    ReplyDelete
  26. lol fail by beverley tjones is a beast though

    ReplyDelete
  27. T-Jones with the move on Jermaine Oneil for the score and able to get the deflection and the steal on the other end. Ball is moving around with Lin and Bev combo in. Lin with no look pass to T-Jones. He got foul and almost got the AND 1.

    ReplyDelete
  28. jlin is just too good my godness

    ReplyDelete
  29. What a pass from lin!!! Jones i think was caught off gurad

    ReplyDelete
  30. Beverly was handled like a ball there....got thrown... Lol

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. He got revenge by causing Dudley to commit the TO. Lin got to shoot the T from the wrestling throw Dudley put on Bev.

      Delete
  31. Beveerly is guarding Dragic and Lin is guarding Marshall. Interesting that McFail put Beverly on Dragic.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Now McFail is going with three guard combo. Took out Anderson. McFail is going small now with 3 guards, D-Mo and T-Jones.

    ReplyDelete
  33. Lin very quiet so far. Dragic is always especially motivated against him.

    ReplyDelete
  34. Is it me or does Jeremy looks off today?

    ReplyDelete
  35. Having Lin stand in the corner while Bev runs the offense was such a waste.

    ReplyDelete
  36. This is me.... Everytime i see harden preparing to come back on the court, i expect the worst to happen to houston...i never enjoy watching him play with the team...

    ReplyDelete
  37. D-Mo running hook shot looks ugly as hell. I knew as soon as he started his motion that the ball was going to clang off the back rim. He doesn't have a fluid motion and shot that hook ball like a catapult.

    ReplyDelete
  38. Harden wasted time dribbling and passed to lin with the shotclock expiring....

    ReplyDelete
  39. Harden putting Lin in a position to fail at the end of the shot clock... again.

    ReplyDelete
  40. Why are Rox having a tough time with the worst team in the west?

    ReplyDelete
  41. Lin with the steal and the scoop lay up over Markief Morris.

  43. Garcia shld try more 3's than harden...

    ReplyDelete
  44. I feel like the Rox should feed their bigs. Don't they match up better inside?

    ReplyDelete
  45. So far Dragic and Lin are even in terms of points and assists. Dragic just got one more steal than Lin.

    ReplyDelete
  46. Jeremy's steal is again robbed by the scorekeeper.

    ReplyDelete
  47. Is that JLin's 2nd steals or Asik's 1st?

    ReplyDelete
  48. The Houston scorekeeper has always been a Lin hater.

    ReplyDelete
  49. Replies
    1. He can't buy an assist and a steal either because the score keeper cheat him.

      Delete
  50. Is Lin wearing the arm brace on today? He doesn't have the elbow brace and his shot seems to be too strong.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Maybe that elbow is bothering him more now that he had a chance to rest it

      Delete
  51. Lin's shooting is off tonight.

    ReplyDelete
  52. with better finishers lin would be having at least 5 assists by now

    ReplyDelete
  53. yeah, houston scorekeeper is biased. Should be two steals by Lin. The one out of bounds was a steal.

    Sad.

    1. He must have buttery Turkish food last night. He seems to have butter fingers tonight.

      Delete
    2. Seriously, he has not looked good the last two games..

      Delete
    3. Asik girlfriend probably draining his energy.

      Delete
  55. Houston scorekeeping and clock manager -- both incompetent.

    ReplyDelete
  56. I hope lin's jumpshot gets better in 2nd half... But i will first hope that he gets to play the 2nd half

    ReplyDelete
  57. Is it my imagination or is this game really boring?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. It gets boring when harden is in bec rockets offense becomes predictable

      Delete
  58. Well Lin is a self professed better player in the second half and in crunch time. So I hope he picks it up in the second. Quite disappointed with his first, ESP his j's

    ReplyDelete
  59. I guess we should just be happy that Lin's basically running the team...but his outside shot just isnt here. They also aren't playing with any enthusiasm at all

    ReplyDelete
  60. Scola who is way shorter than Asik has a better post move than Asik. Harden the PG with his 4th TO.

    ReplyDelete
  61. Not just Lin. The whole team looks like crap. Can't tell which team is the worst in western conference.

    ReplyDelete
  62. ISO Harden killing ball movement...again.

    ReplyDelete
  63. I can't believe we are now trailing the Suns.

    ReplyDelete
  64. This game is unwatchable. Boring as hell. Constant tick-tack fouls and official timeouts.

    Jeremy playing fine...except his bad jumper today (too strong!).

    Seriously, just low-energy, poor execution. Ugly performance by both teams.

    ReplyDelete
  65. Replies
    1. LOL, yeah. Indecisive. Changed his mind mid-air.

      Not a bad miss, though -- led directly to an easy Asik dunk. That's not an accident.

      More annoyed by the bricked open jumpers. Oh well, he's due for a bad shooting day.

      His teammates robbing him of dimes as usual...three missed layups/dunks already.

      Delete
    2. Lin had a subpar 1st half--mainly due to poor shooting. He missed some open jumpers and bricked or air balled some layups/floaters. But I'm confident he'll turn it around in the 2nd half--should turn it up a notch and be more focused offensively. I'm sure the rockets are getting chewed out by McHale at halftime. Should light the fire under their collective butts.

      Delete
    3. This is his worst shooting performance in a long time. He must be having problem with.that elbow.

      Delete
  66. Same story on that last shot with Lin that they gave to Harden. Lin with a missed FG instead of an assist to Asik.

    ReplyDelete
  67. Lin missed that floater really badly...

    ReplyDelete
  68. That was a pathetic first half by the Rox, including Lin. His shot is sooo off tonight. Hopefully he will get to shoot himself out of it Or at least get our bigs more involved on offense.

    ReplyDelete

    1. I'm telling you it's the arm sleeve! Bring back the sleeve Jeremy!!

      Delete
    2. If the shots aren't falling, he needs to attack the paint, get to the free throw line.

      Delete
  69. I'm waiting for Isaiah Thomas to trash Lin during halftime commentary hehe.

    ReplyDelete
  70. What is going on? Rockets are playing like they do not need this win...i hope they are not underestimating the suns bec if they miss the playoffs, they will regret playing the way they played if they lose tonight..hope they show up better in 2nd half and play like they really need this win

    ReplyDelete

    1. They honestly look bored out there.

      Nobody seems to care. Even Jeremy looks like he's in a pick-up game at the Y.

      Delete
    2. I absolutely agree..it' s the whole team, not excluding jeremy.

      Delete
  71. Tonight, so far, ROX = Lackadaisical.

    ReplyDelete
  72. There was no rhythm to Rockets offense. Harden ran offense most of 1st quarter, Bev ran it second quarter. Harden had 4 TO. Low energy all around.

    ReplyDelete
  73. Harden's 4 TO lead to score by Phoenix. That's the difference in the game so far.

    ReplyDelete
  74. Harden picking up another TO running the point. Ugly ugly ugly.

    ReplyDelete
  75. Why is lin not running the offense? If he did, the bigs would have had a lot more touches and points.
