Forget Price. Lin crazies should tune into the game and watch Reggie Jackson simply abuse Lin. Jackson has been toying with him. Video game stuff.
Come on. At this point piling on Lin really does feel like beating a dead horse. I think it's pretty clear who Lin is at this point and that the Rockets clearly made the right decision. Let's just move on and let this thread die.

I see an emerging pattern by Lin crazies. Lying and deflecting. You have earlier been called out in this thread for flat out lying by another poster. You are doing it again. If you actually watched the game you would have noticed that Reggie Jackson was blowing past Lin at will when guarded by him. But since stats is the only thing you look at, here you go.. Jackson for the game: 9-15 for for 25 points.
Lin actually almost bailed out Kobe's crappy game down the stretch. Almost. But Kobe's suckitude was just too much to overcome.
Lin was pretty solid defensively tonight. Reggie Jackson did get past him, most of the better plays Jackson created were in the pick and roll or plays other than a straight iso. The pick and roll D is at least partly on the Lakers bigs and help defenders not being connected. As Mark Jackson pointed out, Steven Adams got a couple of dunks off pick and roll passes from Jackson because the Lakers weakside defender didn't come to stop Adams from getting all the way to the rim on a roll. Lin did quite a bit of good work on D-- Helped off of Jackson, rebounded, denied passes, etc. He contested a Westbrook layup in crunch time, which helped caused a miss.
Lolll a lin crazy calling me a lin crazy... Reggie passed by him like twice. The rest of the points he got, either it was the lakers big that cant switch fast enough or it was price or someone else who was defending him. Like i said before, your obsession with Lin is starting to affect your mental state.

Solid game by Lin, atleast from the box score. Solid game by most lakers actually. Ronnie price and Ed davis. Atrocious numbers from Kobe shooting 3 for 15. Looks from the quarter splits, the Lakers scored 30 in the 4th and made a run. Almost stealing the game from OKC and losing by one. In other words, looks like Kobe lost this game for the Lakers.
