Gasol and Randolph couldn't keep up with the pace of Rockets - no big guys can. Rockets just ran them out of the gym.
Harden was simply awesome with his efficiency. As Alan Hahn said after the Knicks game, he didn't even sweat to score 25 points. The scary part is, he's just 23.
I am glad that Lin played with a lot more confidence. The Spurs game, although was a loss, did something good for him - showing the team what he's capable of. The win at MSG really boosted his confidence. He's simply playing, not over-thinking. That being said, he still needs to improve his shooting.
