Re: Do Rockets fans miss Chandler Parsons and Jeremy Lin now?
I'm not a Rockets fan but I don't see how the Rockets would be better off with Chandler Parsons and Jeremy Lin than with Trevor Ariza and Jason Terry. Ariza's work on the defensive end (2.0 steals plus a defensive rating of 102) is more beneficial for the Rockets than Parson's scoring last season. However, Ariza has been detrimental to the team offensively by shooting 37.1% from the field. Meanwhile, Jason Terry is averaging 7.8 points, 2.1 assists, and 1.0 steals with a 57.9 TS% in 22.4 minutes. Lin, last year, averaged 12.5 points, 4.1 assists, and 1.0 steals with a 57.2 TS% in 28.9 minutes. Chandler Parsons and Jeremy Lin don't make this a better overall team. In fact, this year's team is better defensively than last year, despite losing Omer Asik and Terrence Jones playing a total of four games. Once Terrence Jones is back in the lineup, the Rockets are going to play better than they have so far.

Don't count on TJones having much impact if/when he comes back. Rockets are a much different team now. All they do is let Harden drive and dish for threes. Post up DMo on occasion. The rest is in transition.
Plus he's a horrible defender, especially in the post.

Tjones is a great glue guy, his is for Houston what Draymond green is for GS with less defense, although Green is not that great one on one post defender vs big guys because of the size, but better that Jones
Tjones doesn't need any play run for him, he will get you key buckets and do the dirty work, he will actually be a better starter than Dmo along side Dwight.
And yes he will struggles defensibly vs big guys in the post, but vs teams like GS that like to go small, he will do great.

He's still a solid rebounder that can put up at least 12 points a game efficiently. He's better than Donatus Motiejunas or Josh Smith, at the very least.

Why would they miss Lin? Simply by getting rid of him, they got better.

Pretty sad That Jason Terry at 37 years of age is a much better point guard than Jeremy Lin.:facepalm Terry was considered a shoot first player his whole career going all the way back to his days in Atlanta.:facepalm
