Jeremy Lin started at shooting guard in place of injured James Harden and exploded for 34 points, a career-high and franchise-record nine 3-pointers, as well as five rebounds and 12 assists in 49 minutes of Wednesday's overtime loss to the Sixers. He also committed eight turnovers, but who cares? He had 31 points in his last game, when Patrick Beverley disappeared, and continues to defy the odds and play very well for the Rockets. We've been pretty hard on him, but he just keep producing. We still expect him to cool off once Beverley gets rolling and Harden's feet feel better, but he's simply playing too well to be ignored for now.
