    WTF WAS THAT?!

    Sampson benches Lin (6Reb/11ast/1steal/2blocks/+5) for 2nd unit TD(2Reb/1ast/0blocks/-6)

    He thoroughly deserved to be in the game down the stretch over Lin who only had 11pts, 11ast & 6 rebounds.

    Going to say this one more time:

    • We need to play the triangle offense.
    • Harden's ISO needs to GTFO.
    • Coach needs to let Lin play..... end of story.
    • Morris and Asik are wow'ing me game after game.
    • Patty Melt needs to go...... where's D-MO?! Bring him back if he's in the D-League. I don't like Patterson anymore. I just don't.

    I love how everyone hated McHale, then loved Sampson and now they want McHale back.

    If we're rebuilding anyway, why bench the PG you broke the bank for? Stupid.

    I bet if you add it up all the bad calls, it accounts for probably 15-20 points at least...

    On another note! Nicolas Batum is an Allstar!!

    It's true. They are not the better team they just seem to go nuts against us.

    It'll be alright.

    6 Rockets, almost 7 (yes you TD, you're almost there) got double figures in scoring. All that effort for nothing. I feel really bad for Lin especially since it seems he's finally getting his overall confidence back even if his shooting mojo is still off. Harden is his usual self scoring near 25-30+, but damn him holding on to the ball while the 4 other guys stand around wide open is infuriating to watch sometimes.

    If it's a blowout its easier to take, but damn these close games.

    Ot is just 5mins that's a play here and there. Samps just doesn't have confidence in Lin and TD showed some life last game.

    Just incredible.

    Lin only got 8 shots. 11 assists. Almost triple double.
    Douglas had 11 shots. 1 assist. 1 rebound.

    Sampson angry at Lin??

    bottom line with 16 point lead game shouldn't have gotten so close. the rest of the year is going to be frustrating without another scorer, either lin needs to come up with another 5-8 points a game and all the loses would have been wins

    Exactly.

    All of you consumed by complaining about Lin missed a damn good game by a young Rockets team that wasn't expected to do much but is proving to have a bright future.

    Think about it: Batum, Aldridge, AND Lillard were unstoppable during parts of this game and the Rockets still were in a position to win. Not to mention a plethora of, shall we say "questionable" calls.

    I can't stand losing, but I feel good about this team right now.
