    He'll be on his way from Houston to Colorado at about that time, so it would not surprise me one bit if he reports in from OKC.

    Lin is inconsistent but I'm glad we have him. I've always said he's that mystery player who has shown he can be superstar like. He's already proven he's an above average player in New York and many high scoring performances in rockets

    At least, that is what they are saying from some Taiwanese. They depend on God lots if I watch some TV programs from them.

    No. Absolutely not. The issue is shots. There are only 1.56 shots per minute taken by the Rockets (disregarding free throws). The problem is that Parsons, Harden and Howard take up most of those shots. Lin on a team where he is the second banana would be much better than Bev. But you are right. With the Rockets starting lineup he is a better fit.

    Nah, he cares only about football, that's why Jerry Jones cut a hole in the roof of his stadium =P

    Beverley has been pretty inconsistent. I also don't think the stats show that he is really impacting the game. Opposing PGs shoot a high percentage and his +/- is not that good. He has had a couple of good offensive games, but has generally been inconsistent. He just doesn't get the scrutiny that Lin does for various reasons (name ID, contract, comparisons to Dragic/Lowry). Rockets won't last in a 7 game playoff series with Beverley taking the bulk of minutes from Lin. He will get worn down by the top guards and the officials will not give him latitude for his aggressive bumping and hand checking. Lin is the x-factor who can put the Rockets over the top in tight games much like he did against POR and other games (SA, Mem, Dal, Tor, etc.).

    The hole was Tom Landry's idea. Jerry Jones fired him the minute he took over the team.

    I try to accept God, but there's something that confuse me.

    For example, I understand God made Adam and Eve but didn't Jeremy Lin's parents make Jeremy? Why are we thanking God here?

    I'd like to thank Mr and Mrs Lin for doing the deed.

    Am I missing something here? Lin had 2 consecutive good games back to back and the general attitude towards him has changed quite a bit.

    And i'm not saying this to be snarky either.

    Or are people being cautiously optimistic ...
