Final Score: LAC 117 and HOU 109
Hey Everyone…I’m back!! 
Due to personal reasons I had to take a step back and I missed a lot of games…and I missed blogging 
But now hopefully, I will be able to resume regular posts because I have missed the Rockets, Jeremy, and especially my awesome readers!!
Well this was a tough game for sure. I started watching during the 2nd quarter and things were going well…both teams were playing pretty good. Lin was doing his part and at halftime he had 10 pts and 6 assists. At halftime, the score was LAC 58 and HOU 59. HOU didn’t have a huge lead, but I figured the rest of the game would go the same way…with a lot of back and forth on points…well I was wrong.
The Clippers came back after halftime and started the 3rd quarter with fire. They hit 10 pts in a row and before I knew it, the Rockets were trailing by 16 pts. The Clippers were shooting 56% from the field at the 3rd quarter and their bench also played very strong with 25pts. At the end of the 3rd quarter, the Clippers outscored the Rockets 32 to 18.
The 4th quarter didn’t fare to well for Houston either, unfortunately. They just could not seem to catch up with their 12 point deficit. There were many reasons for this: I think Lin struggled to guard Jamal Crawford and the other Rockets weren’t much help because Crawford was able to hit 9 three-pters and had a season high in points tonight; the Clippers were hitting multiple 3s, Houston also had way to many turn overs, which can be detrimental so late in the game, and Houston also had missed 11 free throws!! Although, they lost…I will say that Houston continued to hustle and played hard in the 4th quarter. Chandler Parsons was named the Player of the Night with 10 shots and 17 pts…but the two players who caught my eye (besides Jeremy Lin, of course) in the 4th quarter were Delfino and the newbie, Patrick Beverly. Delfino continued to play hard and made a 3pter, had a dunk and got to the free throw line with fouls. Patrick Beverely just signed with Houston last week and played for the first time tonight. I don’t know if he was just fresh of the bench or what, but I kinda wish McHale had put him in sooner!! He was put into the game with 1:45 left on the clock and in that time, Beverely managed a steal, a 3pter, and 1 assist!! Jeremy didn’t do to bad tonight either, and managed a double double. So bad loss but my boys fought hard!
Top 5 Scorers:
1) Harden: 23 pts, 4 rebds, 3 asst
2) Parsons: 17 pts, 2 rbds, 4 asst
3) Delfino: 16 pts, 2 rbds, 3 asst
4) Lin: 12 pts, 1 rbd, 10 asst
5) Morris: 12 pts, 8 rbds, 0 asst
Video Highlights
(Sorry, I couldn’t find any this video without the background convo)
Linsanity: the Movie
Go to the link below, for a preview of what the Linsanity Documentary is about. He looks soo precious in those beginning “no” shots and I love this line from the website, “American’s favorite unlikely sports hero.” That is exactly how I see Jeremy!! The directors got permission to film Jeremy for YEARS and I anticipate a lot of personal thoughts and candid video of our unlikely star. They are in need of pledges before this movie can be released and they need pledges by Friday, February 15th. With his popularity and unique story, there is no doubt in my mind, the pledges will come through and I cannot wait for this movie to come out!! You already know, I will be in line on opening night!!

Now the video below is NOT the actual movie trailer for “Linsanity: the Movie” and of course it would NEVER be directed by Spike Lee, but I thought that this was a good video and it kind of gives of a taste of what the movie could be like…including that epic soundtrack!!

That’s all for tonight. Hope everyone has been well! Goodnight from NC and don’t forget to brush your teeth!!
And for those about on the other side of the world, Jeremy says don’t forget to eat a good lunch …
and lick your lips afterward…hehe
Hallo AnnaK! Miss you and your blog!
but very glad and thankful that JLIN played tonight.
I am soooo sleepy a while ago but reading your post awakens me, thanks much for that! ;p
I miss the winning ways of the Rockets
I heard he sprained his ankle during practice.
So happy he is okay
Also, I hope Linsanity: The Movie is also gonna be shown here (praying too!).
Good afternoon from here ;D
aww Rubielyn…I missed you too!! and it’s noon there so u should be eating lunch and licking your lips like Jeremy, lol!! Yea I read that he sprained his ankle also…I wonder if that’s one reason he ddn’t play much in the 2nd half and only made 2 pts. and I hope the movie gets enough funding to show anywhere….but I am sure it will.
Yeah I am done eating my lunch and you’re right I am licking my lips as I am drinking milo right now but I don’t know if the licking is the same as Jeremy’s. LOL!
Really really hoping for it to reach here! (Linsanity:The Movie)
LMAO!!! well I don’t know if we can compare our tongue to Jeremy’s!! And I hope so too, but if not then you can always ask me
Nah, I think his is incomparable…hahaha!!!
Ok AnnaK if in case it will not reach here, Im’ma cry for help to you and thanks much in advance for that!!! mwuah!!!
LMAO!! you are so welcome in advance!!
Magandang hapon, Rube!
It’s early morning over here.
Sometimes winning isn’t always a good thing. I think the Rockets are learning a lot in losing, too. Considering the fact that they were basically just thrown together this season – specialle Harden – they have functioned way better than anyone thought.
The wins will come. We have to be patient.
Magandang Hapon Kabayang Fauxy!
Yeah losing will always be part of the game wether we like it or not.
(too affected? lol!)
It’s just that I feel sadder when JLin is not happy or disappointed or sad after every loss
I know that they are very capable of winning and they have shown it.
And I have faith and will be patient for Jlin
Magandang (good/lovely) Hapon, Fauxy and Rubielyn girl! Maganda tayong lahat puwera lang si Kray Kray! Toinks! Yup, agree amigas…we must be patient. Jeremy is not a quitter. So no more talk of Lakers trade (Come on, they got Nash!). Jer is here for the long haul.
Happy you’re back Anna-K! This is your blog, feel free to eject wackos
Girl, I freaked out few days ago! Got a private message from Jeremy’s cousin Allen! I was like NO, it wasn’t me…the Taiwan fan girls did it!! 
Turns out I won a Linsanity button, a giveaway from the movie. Hehe. Whew. Allen is one of the producers. I know, it’s just a button but it was handled (made and shipped) by hands that over the years patted Jer’s back or whacked him in the head whatever… =] You gotta donate your $$$ girl, even cooler giveaways for donors!
WHOA! Congrats!
@mber…lol!! I can just imagine you saying “it wasn’t me” when his cousin contacted you. Congrats on ur button. ..and I know what you mean. …jlin touched that button indirectly lol!
Gud evening mber!
WOW!! you deserved it for being generous
GO AnnaK your $$$ will all be worth it
omg are they really making a movie?! the commentators on 2k13 said his story would make a great film and all i could think was how cool that would be and now were so close!
Yes they have already made the movie! !! The directors and producers just need help with funding to get the movie finished and in the theaters. …visit my links for how to donate
