    Lin needs to be the leader and take over and not defer to Harden like he does.

    Can we feed the hot hand for once? Harden is such a ball hog at times, ughh...McHale allows because he wants him to learn, such a p***y coach move!@

    This is what pisses me off about Lin the most. You are on fire right now and Harden has been cold all night. You decide to pass to Harden when you could have challenged a narrow lane with 1 point deficit? HE needs to recognize when to be selfish

    Thats pretty alarming to be honest. The difference between great players and average players are consistency. Lin's lacking in that category.

    He has had plenty of picks ths year. Hundred and hundreds. I have to question your scouting If you think the results of those picks = "world class talent"

    All that said, you can never doubt his fight and class. He can be a warrior out there. Ideally we find him a stud backup so we can just bench him when we need to.

    Not likely to happen in Dallas. Harden needs to keep trying to make plays. It sucks that his legs are gone for the night. But the team has to learn to play through this.

    If you notice that shot, it was on the move off a high pick, like the ones he got plenty of in NYK. He can't do the spot up ones very well - something he'll have to work on in the summer.

    Lin needs to command the ball and pentrate,u nless Harden is 100% sure he can make it or get fouled.

    If you want to see this type of high level play...he or Harden has to go somewhere else.

    Ball dominant players can never play off another. Unless you get the zen master involved?? lol
