James Harden scored 29 points, Chandler Parsons added 16 points and a career-high 11 assists and the Rockets dominated inside to beat Brooklyn 119-106 on Saturday night for their 12th consecutive win over the Nets. Omer Asik had 20 points and 16 rebounds for Houston, which outrebounded the Nets 50-31 and outscored Brooklyn 60-24 in the paint. Houston had 31 assists on 43 field goals and committed only 11 turnovers, the teams lowest total in three weeks. The Rockets dropped seven in a row from Jan. 9-19, and Lin said a lengthy film session on Thursday helped them correct their mistakes. "We werent doing what we were supposed to do," Lin said. "The coaches showed us a few days ago what we can look like. That was a nice reminder to all of us." Nets star Deron Williams scored 27 points, but cooled off after a 20-point first quarter. He was ejected with 1:07 left after arguing a call with referee David Jones and didnt speak to the media after the game. The individual duel between Lin and Williams became a backstory as the Rockets pulled away.

Wholesale NFL Jerseys Free Shipping . Then Kidd was arrested on a drunken-driving charge, Lins departure from New York for a "ridiculous contract" in Houston became more realistic, and a position of strength suddenly was one of turbulence for the Knicks.LAKE FOREST, Ill. -- Chicago kicker Robbie Gould will miss the rest of the season after injuring his left calf, another blow to the stumbling Bears with a big NFC North showdown coming up Sunday against the Packers. The Bears placed Gould on injured reserve Tuesday and signed veteran kicker Olindo Mare to a one-year contract. They also placed cornerback Sherrick McManis (knee) and safety Craig Steltz (chest) on IR while signing linebacker Jerry Franklin to a two-year deal, elevating receiver Joe Anderson from the practice squad and waiving offensive lineman Andre Gurode. Gould strained his left calf in warm-ups before Sundays loss at Minnesota, and punter Adam Podlesh handled kickoffs in his place. Gould kicked the extra point after both of Chicagos touchdowns and tried on onside kick late in the game. But when the Bears reached the Vikings 35-yard line late in the first quarter, Podlesh came out to punt. Chicago has been hit hard by injuries lately and dropped four of five after a 7-1 start. The Bears (8-5) now trail Green Bay by a game in the division heading into their matchup at Soldier Field on Sunday, and now theyll be without one of the most accurate kickers in league history.dddddddddddd Gould, who ranks fourth all-time in the NFL at 85.6 per cent on field goals, converted 21 of 25 this season. He also extended his streak of attempts from 50 yards or more without a miss to 10 dating back to 2010, one shy of Tony Zendejas league record. Chicago will now go with Mare, a 15-year veteran and career 81.2 per cent kicker. He was with Carolina last year and was let go after getting beat out by Justin Medlock in the preseason. Other than returner Devin Hesters recent concussion, the special teams had been largely unscathed. That changed with the injuries to Gould, McManis and Steltz. Either way, the injuries continue to mount for a team that could be without Brian Urlacher (hamstring) for the remainder of the season. The Bears were also without cornerback Tim Jennings (shoulder) last week, and quarterback Jay Cutler left the game with neck soreness, although he expects to play against Green Bay. He also missed a game against San Francisco on Nov. 19 because of a concussion. ' ' '
