They just need to keep like a 10+ lead on the Nets so the refs won't try to reel this game in for them

Montiejunas should've gotten more playing time over Morris this season, he's decent and at least can finish off P&Rs.

Del3no always seems to be a wild card.. i like the small lineup, with parsons at the 4, or del3no at the 4, it really spaces the floor...

MAN! I know this is my first post but I just love this team so much. This team is more exciting than any of the Tmac teams and the cohesiveness and brotherhood we see amongst the team just makes you want to see them succeed even more

Anyways my brother made this video about the story of our team from 2009-2011 and the acquisition and "deliverance" of the superstar that Morey had promised. Enjoy NT!

Rockets forward Thomas Robinson, acquired in Wednesday’s deal with Sacramento, arrived in Barclays Arena shortly before halftime Friday, but he and Francisco Garcia were not cleared in time to have played anyway while waiting for the players that the Rockets sent to Sacramento to complete their physicals.
Robinson had gone from playing sparingly to the key to a trade in which the Rockets gave up the starter, Patrick Patterson, at the position, but said he had not given as much thought to the confidence the Rockets showed in him as to the opportunity to start over.
“I just know that I’m here now,” Robinson said about more than his travel. “I have to make the best of my opportunity. Why they did it, is not really a concern right now. I’m just focused on playing. I can try to bring energy, effort and be a good teammate, try to learn from these guys. There’s a lot of good players on this team.
“It hit me, but it’s pretty exciting. I’m exciting about the trade, just ready for the opportunity.”
Robinson will be the eighth player taken in the first five picks since 1966 (when the NBA ended territorial draft rights) to play for two teams in his rookie season.
Zaid Abdul-Aziz (196
played for the Royals and Bucks; Rick Robey (197 played for the Pacers and Celtics; Al Wood (1981) played for the Hawks and Clippers; Donyell Marshall (1994) played for the Timberwolves and Warrriors; Chauncey Billus (1997) played for the Celtics and Raptors; Drew Gooden (2002) played for the Grizzlies and Magic; and Derrick Favors (2010) played for the Nets and Jazz.
Rockets coach Kevin McHale said he did not expect to play Robinson or Garcia at least until after practicing with the team next week.
Robinson happy to be in Houston
Thomas Robinson, 21, becomes the youngest Rockets player; Francisco Garcia, 32, is their oldest.
After spending his first seven seasons with Sacramento, Garcia said he was happy with the move to a team fighting for a playoff spot.
“I was surprised, but I’m happy to be here,” he said. “I’m ready to go right away.
“These guys have a good thing going. I’m going to come in, try to fit in, try to do the right things to get into the playoffs.”
Harden, Lin starting to mesh
Guards James Harden and Jeremy Lin went from combining to score 75 points Wednesday — a franchise record for a starting backcourt — to totaling 31 on Friday night, with Lin making four of 11 shots for nine points.
But their average of a combined 38.6 points per game leads NBA backcourts, edging Golden State’s Stephen Curry and Jarrett Jack (37.5) and Milwaukee’s Brandon Jennings and Monta Ellis (37.4).
“It’s definitely going very well,” Harden said. “At the beginning of the season, we didn’t have a feel for each other. Now, we play pretty well with each other. Some nights, he has it going. Some nights, I have it going.
“You can’t just expect two teammates who like to make their teammates better, who like to score the basketball to mesh right away. It took us some time.”
Saturday: Rockets at Wizards
When/where: 6 p.m.; Verizon Center, Washington.
TV/radio: CSNH; 790 AM, 99.1 FM, 850 AM (Spanish).
Rockets (31-26) update: The Rockets’ win at Brooklyn moved them to 18-6 against Eastern Conference teams, including 8-5 on the road. … The Rockets are 5-11 in the second half of back-to-backs and 3-8 when they end on the road. … Thomas Robinson and Francisco Garcia are expected to be cleared in time for Saturday’s game but are unlikely to play before next week’s practices. Tyler Honeycutt did not join the team on the road trip — an indication he could be headed to a Development League assignment.
Wizards (16-37) update: With an upset of Denver on Friday, the Wizards moved to 11-9 in games in which John Wall plays, averaging 5.5 points more and allowing 5.5 fewer with him in the lineup. … Bradley Beal, who was Eastern Conference rookie of the month each of the past two months, is second among rookies in scoring, averaging 13.5 points per game.
