If you down with the team and I missed your name just post in here & I can add you. Go Rox!!!

:x forgot those would be the links to the old piece of **** site, but oh well

 

[do work son]

harden is absolutely feasting tonight

 

[puglife]

my old sn in the roll call

loved seeing them pull out the W today, but honestly, that game was frustrating to watch. sooooo many stupid/careless turnovers. game should not have been anywhere near that close, but at the same time, it allowed harden to get to 45 and gets more people talking about us across the country and on tv.

 

[do work son]

i am hating everything i'm seeing from jeremy lin. he tries so hard to create contact, and ends up flailing and falling to the ground and creating a 5 on 4 going the other way. he's looked like a pure ballstopper and only really trying to get his.

 

[daruma]

didn't think i'd be following the NBA after lakers' BS trade. but rockets..

P.S. i did not like the jlin pick up.

 

[blackxme]

Jeremy is very out of control at times. He still had an ok game tonight. He's a pretty good rebounder for his size.

What can I say about James Harden? The dude keeps putting the team on his back. A career high 45

But we had so many turnovers tonight :x

 

[pmatic]

The Rockets are my League Pass team this year. Since I played ball with James in high school, it's been a joy seeing him cook so far.

also, love how agressive asik was on the boards. now imagine if he could actually finish around the rim

 

[Peep Game]

Asik would be a monster if he could finish man

Those turnovers were frustrating me too, just begging to give the game away. Got that W, and now it's home vs Portland. Interested in seeing how they play their first back to back. I also wanna know what McHale is doing with the rotation. I've said it multiple times already, but damn, I was sick of that mess last year. Guys logging heavy minutes will only gas them out later on.

Good to see Morris ball out, and PPatt getting back in the groove. Can we get some Donatas, Royce, and Jones though?? And i thought Greg Smith was set to play?

Machado & Cook >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Toney Douglas :x **** this guy.

 

[do work son]

greg smith hurt his ankle in the first game

 

[jordanman23]

Asik was great on the boards just wish he could finish once in a while

 

[DPancakes]

A great time to be a rockets fan

 

[Peep Game]

greg smith hurt his ankle in the first game

I didn't think it was anything serious. They said he'd be ready to go. Guess that found out something different later.

 

[Retroballer]

What a night and day performance for Marcus Morris. played well so that was nice.

Lin just needs to improve his finishing around the rim, left alot of points out there by taking out of control shots trying to avoid to contact

Harden was just a beast

Asik's Defense and rebounding was great, if Patterson can play defense like that all year, the defense around the rim will be tough

Turnovers need to be cut down

Wondering when we will see Donatas, White and Jones will start getting burn. can play a big line up cause Morris and Jones can play a big three at times.and Donatas has to be more effective than Cole Aldrich.

But this team is a breathe of fresh air compared to last year. feels like we are actually building something and not keeping out head above water for the 9th spot in the western confrence

 

[puglife]

it's still early and I'm legitimately not trying to get ahead of myself, but it is pretty exciting to be 2-0 and have harden playing lights out giving the team hope. just a week ago everything seemed lost and I was actually expecting a top 3 lottery pick.

 

[do work son]

Anyone going to the game tonight?

 

[rosegoldsluggs]

Just like someone said on the last page, Mchale is gonna run Harden into the ground if he dosent start distributing the minutes more evenly. It look like when Harden goes to the bench everyting just falls apart. There is nobody that can handle the rock with the 2nd group he puts out there. Also throw D-Mo and Jones out there and see if they can ball.

Toney Douglas

Have fun at the game...take some pics

 

[do work son]

didn't go to the game as planned, bought texans tickets instead.

unfortunately, didn't get to watch much of the game. obviously harden was going to have a bad game, from what i saw they would try and take the ball out of his hand on the pick and roll. the hell is mchale doing playing parsons 40+ minutes?

It wasnt so much that Harden had a bad game I just think he was exhausted and alot of his shots were just rolling out the basket. He should bounce back strong next game.

Parsons played great on the boards and played good D as always. Mchale is an idiot when it comes to rotations tho, I hope he's just trying to get a feel for how everyone is playing now then in the future hes gonna put out the right people. I liked what I saw out of Cole and Marcus they need more PT. Toney actually played great D and played good on offense besides his missed ****** layups

  

Still excited for this team tho, they looked great the first half but TOs are killing us.

 

[blackxme]

The team looked gassed down the stretch. It's obvious that the team still lacks continuity. I thought they missed a lot of gimmies a the rim last night, it was frustrating to watch. But I know there's a lot of buzz around them right now and I'm glad.

-Jeremy Lin needs to stop penetrating into too deep, and then putting up some wild *** shot.
-Omer Asik must practice practice practice layups/dunks. Somebody help that dude.
-Marcus Morris is showing that he wasn't a wasted pick.
