Yes for Jones. He's a great fit next to Dwight. Rebounds well, plays good D and scores without running plays for him. He's going to continue to get better.

Lin, I don't think will be traded. He's the top scoring option off the bench and really is more of a two than a 1. He plays pretty well next to Beverly.

We could use another wing but I don't see any major moves at the deadline. The team is just starting to get healthy. If Asik is content with being a backup, the bench is one of the best in the league.

I'm a big fan of Jones and I do think he can be a long term 4 if he's developed and used right, which the Rockets have the right coaches in place for that.

Got a chance to go into the AS break with a 7 game win streak. Washington is no pushover though.

Dwight has been so good the last two months. He doesn't have to score like he did in Orlando but he looks as good offensively as he ever has.

Harden must be guarding him.

Despite the fact that it took a pretty nice collapse for us to need it, that was a great finish.


7 in a row!

Shows you how important Beverly is to this team. Lin is a scorer and I like him in that role. He's not good at running the team. 26 turnovers tonight, a season high. With Beverly tonight the game wouldn't have been close.

Still, great win. Ariza gave us one after damn near winning it himself. Stupid foul on his part.

I think this is the 2nd best record we've had heading into the all-star break. The best was the 93-94 team.

This game shouldn't have been close. 26 turnovers and leaving Ariza wide open constantly for 10 3's. WTF.

Luckily Bavetta was giving the Rockets a lot of calls.

That 19 point lead in the 3rd quarter disappeared so fast. It was unbelievable.

Not a good performance, but I'll take the W.

It was pretty incredible.

I'd like to not see that happen again.

Almost 3x more free throws than the other team. Haeden AND Parsons had just about as many free throws as the Wizards....I wish Portland was a big market team sometimes...

I agree. Lin had some stupid stupid turnovers tonight. He plays great at times, but can't run the team as well as Beverly can. Beverly didn't play all that well before he got hurt, but has been great since he's been back.
