Houston Rockets – Jeremy Lin Isn’t Overrated, James Harden Made Him Redundant
Posted on 13 Jun, 2013, by Greg in BasketballWhen the Houston Rockets signed Jeremy Lin from the New York Knicks last season, for a moment there it looked like someone believes in him enough to slowly build a team around him. The trade that brought over James Harden changed everything, including the expectations, overnight, while Lin was pushed aside in favor of the usual superstar-like basketball the NBA always directs itself towards.

Houston Rockets – Jeremy Lin Might be Traded if Chris Paul Arrives
Posted on 10 Jun, 2013, by Greg in BasketballThe Los Angeles Clippers fired their head coach because Chris Paul demanded it, but didn’t like the media knowing about it. So his future with the team remains in doubt, giving the Houston Rockets an opportunity to sign him, which will mean a few things: Jeremy Lin becoming a bench player once again, while Dwight Howard won’t be heading over there.

Houston Rockets – Jeremy Lin and James Harden Will Both Benefit From Dwight Howard
Posted on 24 May, 2013, by Greg in BasketballAt this point in the off-season of both the Houston Rockets and Dwight Howard, it’s all about speculation. About being able to get the most coveted free agent in the 2013 class, while thinking how this will help or change the dynamic of both Jeremy Lin and James Harden, the two most important players on the team last season.

New York Knicks – Jeremy Lin Style of Basketball is Better Than Building Around Carmelo Anthony
Posted on 20 May, 2013, by Greg in BasketballHindsight doesn’t make you a genius, but when the New York Knicks decided to let Jeremy Lin go to the Houston Rockets it wasn’t just a money decision. It was about the egos of James Dolan and Carmelo Anthony, and deciding to build a team around a superstar who knows how to play in only one way, and it isn’t the right one. Lin might never be as talented of a scorer like Anthony or James Harden, but playing in a style that feeds off his talent is a better way to find success. More
James Harden & Kevin McHale Ruined it for Jeremy Lin & the Houston Rockets
Posted on 5 May, 2013, by Greg in BasketballThere was only one game in the six games the Houston Rockets managed to drag out of the Oklahoma City Thunder in which James Harden had an impressive night. One of the biggest superstars in the NBA, but a head coach that doesn’t know how to limit him and make the most of him, while their once chance of playing the kind of basketball an injured Thunder team wouldn’t be able to handle, Jeremy Lin, got injured and made things worse by trying to play instead of watching from the side.

Houston Rockets – Jeremy Lin & James Harden Fail When it Matters the Most
Posted on 4 May, 2013, by Greg in BasketballYoung teams need to go through growing pains, and losing in the first round of a postseason series qualifies as just that. Jeremy Lin shouldn’t have played but did, becoming possibly the least valuable player of the series, while James Harden refused to learn from the lessons of a previous game, trying to shoot his way out of trouble instead of slow down, stop and think, which might have led to better results.

Houston Rockets – Jeremy Lin is Out But James Harden & Omer Asik are Thriving
Posted on 2 May, 2013, by Greg in BasketballNo Jeremy Lin, where are thou coming from the Houston Rockets, making the most of their rivals missing their second best player and using quite unintelligent tactics to try and make up for it. Meanwhile, James Harden finally played the kind of game he’s supposed to, while Omer Asik made the most of being the focus of intentional fouls in an attempt to send him to the line. More
Houston Rockets – Jeremy Lin Needs to Find Himself Another Team
Posted on 1 May, 2013, by Greg in BasketballThere’s nothing wrong with being a bench player who gives about 15-20 minutes a night, but Jeremy Lin wants to be and can be a starting point guard in the NBA, but it’s getting clearer and clearer that playing for the Houston Rockets under Kevin McHale and next to James Harden isn’t that beneficial for him, and probably for the team.

Houston Rockets – Jeremy Lin & James Harden Forgotten by Chandler Parsons
Posted on 30 Apr, 2013, by Greg in BasketballWith no Jeremy Lin, the stage was set for James Harden to do whatever he wants, only to be thwarted again and again by a prepared Oklahoma City Thunder defense. Luckily for the Houston Rockets, there’s a bit more to them, especially coming from Chandler Parsons in a huge performance, and some big plays from less involved players like Carlos Delfino, including one huge and shocking dunk over Kevin Durant.

Houston Rockets – Jeremy Lin Should Never Have Played in Game 3
Posted on 28 Apr, 2013, by Greg in BasketballFor the second straight game, the Houston Rockets lost to the Oklahoma City Thunder by 3 points. Jeremy Lin had another one that he won’t be too proud of, but there’s a good chance that without him the team would have done better – Lin played injured, leaving the game quite early looking quite limited (At best) during the time he did spend on the floor.
