    Is @adoo just trolling you @tinman or is he really defending Lin? Lin is basura (trash in Spanish)

    that only underscores how stupid it was for Morey to over-bid for FA Lin

    I don’t know what he is trying to accomplish
    Lin sucked with the Rockets
    He was a starter with Harden
    Got demoted and traded
    And he’s been switching teams ever since and not considered a starter

    Every single Rocket fan understands this
    Unless they are not a rockets fan

    Lin wasn’t the worst acquisition in the morey era
    But I don’t know why you are completely faulting him for it. It was two bad post seasons and then we got rid of him.

    Lin made some mistakes in that series for sure. He also played well in parts of that series, including a very strong Game 5 as well as a great defensive effort in Game 6 that held Lilliard scoreless in the 4th quarter until the very last shot of the series. Mostly about that series, the only player who consistently brought it every game of the series was Dwight.

    Some mistakes ?
    He made general manager trading you mistakes
    Look I understand that Lin Only fans can ever admit Lin played terrible
    It’s an insecure reaction because you aren’t completely secure about his skills
    And that’s the whole point of his fan base going onto team sites
    I’m sure there’s Lin only fans telling the lakers fans he was amazing too

    He left the court with a lead and .6 seconds left to tie the series and force a Game 7. Someone else made a mistake that finally lost the series.

    Lin sucked vs Portland
    Period
    He got traded because of that series
    He wasn’t a good starter
    This is why he doesn’t start on teams anymore

    Money traded him to make cap room to try to sign Chris Bosh. Everyone knows that. Morey has even said that if he didn’t think Bosh was going to sign that he’d have kept Lin. Do you even read Chron.com?

    Lin sucked with the Rockets

    This is the entire purpose of Lin Only Fans trolling any team sites.

    They don't like to hear the truth because of insecurity . you are proving my point.

    I'm sure Utah fans or LeBron fans are saying the Harden or the Rockets suck, but we know they don't and we don't care because we are not an insecure fan base.

    Lin sucked especially vs Portland in the playoffs.

    You can reply all you want, i'm not letting you lie.

    I’m here to talk about Lin as an Atlanta Hawk. You are the one that keeps bringing up the Portland series...

    I agree. The only Rocket to consistently show up in that series was Dwight...everyone else made mistakes and played below their capabilities.

    I’m so glad Morey dumped Lin
    He was the worst player in the Portland series

    yet you can't even name one other poisoned pill contract that Morey had offered

    why are you so afraid of holding Morey accountable for his stupid decision to overbid on then-FA Lni



    earth to tinman:

    Rox didn't just got rid of Jin,
    they had to gift the LAL w a 1st round pick and a future 2nd rounder to take on the last year of Lin's contract​

    And they wouldn’t have made that trade if they didn’t think Bosh was coming to the Rockets.
