    They exaggerate the problem so much, the complaints about Lin fans is greater than the actual number of Lin fans.

    When even the admin is saying "millions" of Lin fans, as if they are some monstrous horde, then you know things are beyond pathetic.

    But it pays the bills I guess! Gotta get them clicks.

    Can we get some vids of Harden going right at Bradley, was sick to watch him take his defensive efforts so personally

    Sounds like we played a total team game and did Harden really have 3 blocks, did he play some defense??

    Then he should address those specific inviduals and debunk the arguments as rediculous. Why bring in millions of fans, who had no role in the conversation. Address the post message not the messengers. It is so lazy to lash out at a hypothetical group. Furthermore, not evryone calling for McHale's head is a Lin fan. Sheesh, that Fire McHale thread was started way before Lin even got here.

    It was like an apha male thing, he showed his dominance by going straight at him the whole way. Great play by Harden.

    EXACTLY.

    It was one person who made the Sampson comment. Naturally, a couple of people responded, some agreed, some didn't, some asked for source on the rumor. Suddenly, this is the doing of "several" Lin fans... even "millions" !!! :eek:

    I can understand that some trolls have nothing better to do than to troll, but when the site admin is feeding into that hysteria, it is quite disheartening. :(

    I've been reading this thread since page 28 and I cannot
    see any obvious LOF postings.

    I can see people praising his play tonight but I dont get
    the impression that they are LOFs.

    So can someone help identify these posts?


    All this LOF bashings are getting quite tiresome though admittedly,
    tonight's thread has been quite pleasant compared to the past dozen
    or so.

    Hopefully, it will keep improving.

    Jones was a point guard in high School. Then he grew a lot. He must have developed his ball skills then.. he headed for great things IMO. Has all the skills that are needed to be exceptional.

    Dishonest to the core. Who said the Sampson "rumor" (cough) was "the doing of millions"? Seriously... where is that? I played along with madness, saying if true, then millions of Lin's fans would owe an apology to McHale since Sampson is the true evil mastermind holding down Linsanity.

    I'm sorry ... no, I didn't use a literal count of how many of Jeremy Lin's fans do not like McHale. If you're offended by a number and ignore posts pinning the blame of Jeremy's struggles on the guy who is out due to a family passing, you might want to re-evaluate.

    My bad. I didn't mean to lump you in with the (oh, what should the corrected number be.... half dozen?) of Lin fans who don't like Kevin McHale.

    Could it be that lin has been running the offense for about three games because the other system was not working that well . It could be that simple.
