Lin, Harden, Asik .. blah blah blah . Chandler Parsons is averaging 16pts and 7rbs on the season ! Dont forget he started off on a little slump and Harden takes 20-30 shots a game but still Parsons is averaging those beautiful numbers . Not to mention he is still oh so young and is only going to get better . NOT BAD FOR A SECOND ROUNDER HUH ?

16pts, 7rbs, 4ast, 1steal and 47 % FG per game folks .

Thanks for the summary (and thanks to Rahat for the game comments). A great win for the good guys--we had the look of playoff team for much of this game. Two notes of concern: 1) we didn't put this game away, and as a result our starters played heavy minutes with a tough day (and game) tomorrow; and 2) I don't think we handle pressure defense that well. Lin and Parsons don't handle traps very efficiently.

Love it! Maybe one of these days ill get to watch a game in person or in HD on my TV.

First Half: 2 turnovers, 18 team assists
Second Half: 12 turnovers, mostly in the 4th quarter. 38 pts in 3rd, 18 pts in 4th.

A very clean first half in which we did everything right, except maybe some defense. Second half got sloppy once we put our bench in, but we need to be able to rely on that bench a little more in an 82-game season. I was hoping Morris would stay in for Patterson a bit longer to see if he could set a new personal best for scoring. 11 points in the 1st had him headed for a similar game to what Parsons had against NY.

so D-Mo only saw a min or action, right? that was a bit of a letdown.

i appreciate the comprehensive job covering the rockets, but i have to take issue with your "rush hour" duo analogy. i don't see how that comparison makes any sense except in a purely racial sense of lin being chinese and harden black.
