    yeah after those 2 steals and the 'and one' Lin drew, he and the Rockets had momentum. But when he 'ran out of bounds' a few plays later, Mchale benched him until the late 4th quarter. That's when the Rockets starting struggling again. That's something I don't understand. Lin plays well, then he has one silly turnover and gets benched for a whole quarter.

    I agree. Team does not need Lin at all, TD or Patrick will do the job, or another good shooting guard. Trade another good PF using Lin's cap space, that is a good team.

    i dont know about that. Does McHale or the assistant coaches really go to Harden after the game and go through what he could've done better? I doubt it.

    It's also on McHale/Harden to let others get the rock late in games. Look at the Celtics..they do it all the time. Paul Pierce doesnt always have to take the big shot. Today Jeff Green got the game winning lay up.

    I believe that McHale could have the heart of the champion. I knew a coach who too had that... What was his name again? Phil Jackson?....

    Maybe if McHale benches lin we'll see less of LOFs slitting their wrists like emo teeagers.

    Agreed. Lin should come off the bench for the rest of the season and get shipped out in the off season for a sharpshooter. Maybe Nate Robinson.

    So can we all agree then that harden should get benched and traded in the off season? You all on board with this?

    Held responsible and accountable. Harden's contract terms are directly affected by how successful the team is so yes, he is held responsible and accountable.

    You quite character man.

    Ask you simple question do think Harden should play 24 minutes straight minutes in this game?

    Losing sucks but if you had told me we would go 1-1 against the Spurs and Pacers, I would have been skeptical. Pacers are an elite team that match up well against us. Hibbert had a career game, end of story.

    It's not like we've been playing badly recently. Let's try and focus on the Grizz, they're hurting. Going 2-2 for this stretch would be huge.

    Let's not dwell on Lin. This is aimed at both LOF and LOH. Neither he nor Beverly really impacted the game too much. Let's not dump on Harden either, Pacers were just too big. Hansbrough going for 16-8? No one saw that coming.

    Tough loss. Move on. Next game.

    Teres nothing here to talk about. Lin had 3 bad minutes if that. Harden played badly...it happens...this team is not good enough to get out of the first round and tonight's game wasn't important. They will be the 7th seed. They will compete but if they move up to 6th they will likely play Denver and get pounded....they would be better off staying in 7th and playing there...simple....this loss is not lid s falt it's the teams fault. They played like **** most of the night. Harden was dreadful, Beverly didn't do much and either did Lin....have fun discussing this nonsense into nosium ...congrats
