Jeremy Lin's first game against his old team couldn't have gone better for the Houston Rockets, as they hammered the New York Knicks Friday night, 131-103, handing the Knicks their second straight loss.
Lin was one of six Rockets in double figures. He finished with 13 points, seven rebounds and three assists. The real story of the game ended up being the Knicks inability to stop the Rockets wing players. James Harden (33) and Chandler Parsons (31) both had 30-plus point games. Houston also dominated on the boards, 49-30, led by 14 from Omer Asik.
The Los Angeles Lakers are still looking for their first road win after losing to the Southwest Division leading Memphis Grizzlies, 106-98.
